About this episode

Dealers evaluating a DMS look hard at features, integrations and reporting. They don’t always ask what happens when something breaks: a tech can’t close a work order, a transaction won’t sync, the parts counter hits a wall.

JP Raiger explains why support at Flyntlok is part of the product, not a department on the sidelines, and walks through how a ticket gets solved. For anyone weighing a DMS switch.

What you’ll hear

  1. Support is part of the product. Even great software needs guidance, and users don’t know what they don’t know.
  2. 8 and 8. A real answer within 8 minutes and a resolution within 8 hours. Closures averaged about 4.75 hours at the time of recording.
  3. Some fixes take seconds. JP’s fastest took about 30 seconds: an income account mapped to the wrong place.
  4. Real conversations. Consultants pick up the phone, and many dealers ask for them by name.
  5. Better tickets, faster answers. A ticket captures the page you were on and the steps before the problem.

Episode notes

The conversation, section by section

When dealerships evaluate software, they focus on features, integrations, reporting and workflows. What they don’t always evaluate is what happens when something goes wrong. At that moment, software alone isn’t enough. What matters is how fast someone responds, and whether that person can actually help.

Why support matters more than most dealers realize

Even the best software needs guidance. Every department has its own workflows and reporting needs, and users often don’t know what they don’t know. Without good support, JP says, dealers lose productivity and visibility, and a lack of insight makes it hard to run the business.

The difference dealers notice immediately

Speed. Many dealers come to Flyntlok after waiting days or weeks for answers from their old provider. Flyntlok customers often hear back from a real person within minutes, and JP has called customers within two minutes of a ticket coming in.

Understanding the 8 and 8 standard

Respond within 8 minutes. Resolve within 8 hours. The first response isn’t an acknowledgement; it’s an actionable answer that helps the customer move forward. At the time of recording, the average closure time was about 4.75 hours, close to half the goal.

Solving problems in seconds

JP’s fastest ticket took about 30 seconds: an accounting posting issue caused by an income account mapped to the wrong place. Knowing both dealership operations and Flyntlok’s accounting integrations made it easy to spot.

Why relationships matter

Many customers know the support team by name, and some ask for a specific consultant. Consultants pick up the phone instead of trading emails. One dealer, golf cart dealer Miller & Sons, sent JP popcorn, beef jerky, a gift card and branded apparel.

A look behind the curtain: how support works

Customers submit tickets inside Flyntlok with a description, context, screenshots, error messages and the page involved. Flyntlok also captures the page the user was on and the steps leading up to the problem, so a consultant can jump straight into the affected workflow.

The role of AI in customer support

Flyntlok uses AI internally to help consultants work faster: spotting likely workflow blockers, suggesting troubleshooting paths and surfacing relevant information. The goal isn’t fewer people. It’s better support.

What makes the team special

Accountability. The team holds itself responsible for customer success: complete answers, follow-through and continuing to dig until there’s a resolution.

Final takeaway

When dealers hit a problem, they don’t want a ticket number. They want answers from people who understand how dealerships work. That’s why support at Flyntlok is built into the product experience.
