AI prompt to partner with auto dealers and body shops
New business starts with a steady list of people and businesses to talk to, and a fast, personal first touch. AI helps agents research prospects, draft first messages and organize lead lists, so more of the day goes to real conversations.
Below is a ready-to-copy prompt to partner with auto dealers and body shops, a detailed version that asks you clarifying questions first, and tips for using it. It works in any AI assistant: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot.
The prompt
Write a short pitch to a local auto dealership's finance manager offering fast insurance quotes for their buyers, with a simple process description. No compensation language.
Detailed version (asks clarifying questions first)
Act as an experienced assistant to a licensed insurance agent. Before answering, ask me up to 3 clarifying questions (who you're reaching out to, whether it's an email, call or text, and tone). Then complete this task, and finish with a short checklist of statements I should verify with my compliance team. Task: Write a short pitch to a local auto dealership's finance manager offering fast insurance quotes for their buyers, with a simple process description. No compensation language.
What a good result looks like
A good pitch focuses on making the dealer's job easier: quick quotes for buyers who need proof of insurance, a simple hand-off process and a named contact. It's short and professional.
Common mistakes and watch-outs
Don't offer gifts or payments for referrals unless your state's rules allow it; many states restrict referral fees and inducements. Make it clear buyers can choose any insurer, and follow consent rules before contacting any buyer the dealer sends.
How to adapt the prompt
Adapt it for body shops, mortgage lenders or realtors by changing the hand-off moment. Ask for a one-page process description you can leave with the finance manager.
Subject: Fast insurance quotes for your buyers Hi [First Name], I'm [Agent Name], a local independent agent. When your buyers need proof of insurance before they drive away, we can help quickly: 1. Your team sends the buyer our way (with their permission) or gives them our number. 2. We call them, gather details and provide options. 3. We send proof of insurance once they choose a policy. Buyers are free to choose any insurer. Could I stop by for 10 minutes on [Day]? [Agent Name], [Phone]
