Welcome to Collision Auditors
Experience is fundamental!
My name is Craig Newton, and welcome to Collision Auditors.
With experienced estimators in short supply, I offer reliable virtual auto damage estimating solutions to collision repair professionals facing staffing challenges. I am an I-CAR Platinum Certified Estimator specializing in preliminary estimate and supplement review.
My goal is to help your shop work smarter, not harder —adding thousands of dollars per month
to your bottom line based on vehicle volume.
Let me show you how.
Estimate Auditing
You don't know what you don't know
Having an experienced estimator review your estimates helps identify overlooked line items, ensuring you get paid for work you’re already performing but missing out on. Limited estimating experience can unintentionally leave revenue on the table.
Follow their Lead. . .
Insurance staffs remotely; why not you?
Remote staffing offers a cost-effective alternative without the overhead of benefits, PTO, or vacation time. Insurance companies have capitalized on this model successfully for years—it’s time for collision repair shops to adopt the same creative approach.
Remote Virtual Estimating
With over 25 years' experience, I can help aid your staff by alleviating the preliminary damage assessment process that leads to expediting scheduling of the customer in getting vehicles to production quicker.
About me
Talking Points
The echo heard across the country from within our industry is the continued uphill struggle to recruit and retain a work force of either reliability or qualification. This component prohibits operations from optimizing in various timely tasks such as damage assessments that ultimately slow shop production which results in lessor gross sales simply due to inadequate staffing levels.
Consider allowing me to pinch hit, alleviating pressure on the staff, by taking on your preliminary damage assessments. My virtual estimate process will help reduce some of the burden on your front end by taking pressure off the day to day. For most shops, there is just not enough staff support nor hours in the day to get it all done. Because we know time is of the essence, the virtual damage assessment process will also help narrow the gap in scheduling your customer for repair sooner reducing risk of losing them to another shop.
There is no "Team" here. . .
Thats right! There is no I in team - meaning, you deal directly with me. I don't have a staff to direct or a bunch of people to get in the way in order to make things happen for you. I can assure you that when we talk, you have my undivided attention, and I always deliver on my promises.
