About Elite Black Car Service
Elite Black Car Service is a premium black car company serving Chicago's business travelers and corporate clients.
Company Background
Established in 2015, Elite built a reputation for reliability and professionalism. With 22 luxury sedans and SUVs, they serve corporate accounts, hotels, and direct customers. However, their growth was being strangled by manual processes that consumed their team's time and introduced errors.
The Challenges
Elite's manual operations created bottlenecks that limited growth and threatened service quality.
Manual Dispatch Nightmare
Dispatchers spent 4+ hours daily calling drivers, confirming availability, and coordinating assignments. Peak periods often resulted in delayed assignments and frustrated drivers.
Communication Overload
Sending booking confirmations, reminders, driver details, and receipts manually consumed 15+ hours weekly. Mistakes were common, leading to customer complaints.
Billing & Invoicing Chaos
Corporate invoicing required manually compiling trips from spreadsheets. Monthly billing took 2 full days and frequently contained errors that damaged client relationships.
No Real-Time Visibility
Without live tracking, the office couldn't answer 'Where's my driver?' questions. Customer service calls during trips were frustrating for everyone.
The LimoFlow Solution
Elite implemented LimoFlow's automation features to eliminate manual touchpoints across their operation.
Automated Dispatch System
Smart dispatch automatically assigns trips to available drivers based on location, vehicle type, and schedule. One-click dispatch replaced hours of phone coordination.
Automated Communications
Every customer touchpoint is automated: booking confirmations, reminders, driver details, and post-trip receipts. Zero manual intervention required.
Corporate Billing Automation
One-click invoice generation compiles all trips by account, department, or cost center. Automatic monthly billing for recurring corporate clients.
Live Fleet Tracking
Real-time GPS tracking of all vehicles. Customer tracking links for 'Where's my driver?' and ETA updates without calling the office.
Implementation Timeline
Elite was running automated operations within 10 days.
Platform Setup
Account configuration, vehicle fleet setup, driver onboarding to mobile app, and corporate account import.
Automation Configuration
Set up automated email/SMS templates, dispatch rules, and corporate billing preferences.
Team Training
Dispatcher training on new workflows, driver app familiarization, and corporate portal setup for key accounts.
Go Live
Transitioned all operations to LimoFlow. Monitored automations and fine-tuned settings.
The Results
Automation transformed Elite's operations within the first quarter of implementation.

2 Days to 2 Hours
Monthly corporate billing now takes 2 hours instead of 2 full days. Zero billing errors since implementation.
35% Fewer Support Calls
Customer tracking links and proactive communications eliminated 'Where's my driver?' calls. Support team now handles exceptions only.
"I used to spend my entire day on the phone coordinating drivers and sending confirmations. Now the system handles 90% of that automatically. I actually have time to build relationships with our corporate clients and work on growing the business. The corporate billing automation alone justified the entire investment - we went from dreading month-end to clicking one button."
