The repair shop problem

You fix cars. Your competitors get found.

The best wrench in town still loses jobs to the shop with better reviews, faster follow-up, and a phone that never goes to voicemail. Here's where the work leaks out — and how we plug it.

2 in 3

The trust gap

Nearly two of every three drivers say they don't fully trust repair shops. A wall of recent 5-star reviews and a complete Google Business Profile close that gap before the phone ever rings.

±40%

The slow-season swing

Bays overflow one week and sit idle the next. Always-on local search plus automated service reminders and win-back texts smooth the curve — so you stop living feast-or-famine.

1 in 2

The after-hours leak

Half your calls land while you're under a hood or already closed. A 5-second missed-call text-back and a 24/7 AI receptionist catch the job before the caller dials the shop down the street.

Who we serve

Every kind of shop on the block.

From a solo mobile wrench to a multi-bay collision center — each shop has a different rhythm, ticket size, and buyer. We tune the stack to yours.

Auto Repair Shops

When the bays are full you don't think about marketing — until a slow week hits. We keep "mechanic near me" pointing at your shop so the schedule never empties out.

  • Phones ring off the hook — until suddenly they don't
  • Techs juggling estimates, follow-ups, and dispatch
  • No clean report of which channel actually drove the work

Mobile Mechanics

Mobile Mechanics

Win the job before the competition can call back.

  • Lost jobs to whoever answers first
  • No way to qualify leads from under the hood
  • Inconsistent ROI across the service radius
Tire & Lube Shops

Tire & Lube Shops

Own every "oil change" and "tires near me" search in town.

  • Commoditized — hard to stand out from the chains
  • Walk-in dependent with thin online presence
  • Seasonal spikes need matching ad spend
Auto Body & Collision

Auto Body & Collision

High-ticket jobs deserve high-intent leads — not tire-kickers.

  • Insurance steering work away from independents
  • Long quote-to-approval cycle kills momentum
  • Estimates that ghost after the first photo
Engine & Transmission

Engine & Transmission

Be the specialist Google trusts for the big, complex repairs.

  • Big-ticket jobs need real authority and proof
  • Few reviews mention the specialty work
  • Long consideration window between search and booking
Local SEO

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

Own the Map Pack for the searches that actually book work — "mechanic near me," "brake repair [city]," "check engine light diagnostic."

  • Google Business Profile optimization + weekly posts
  • Service-area pages with schema for every repair you offer
  • Local citations + automotive-vertical directories
  • AI search visibility for ChatGPT, Gemini & Google AI Overviews
Paid Ads

Google LSAs + Search & PPC

Local Services Ads put your shop at the very top with a Google Guaranteed badge — then Search and PMax campaigns catch every high-intent repair query, each dollar tracked to a booked job.

  • Google Local Services Ads (pay-per-lead, not per-click)
  • Search + Performance Max for high-intent repair terms
  • Geo-fenced targeting tuned to your service radius
  • Call tracking on every ad so spend ties to revenue
Reputation

Reviews & Reputation Engine

Two of three drivers don't trust shops by default. An automated review engine turns every finished repair into fresh 5-star proof — the single biggest lever on both rankings and call volume.

  • Automated SMS + email review asks after every ticket
  • Reputation monitoring with fast response workflows
  • Reviews wired directly to your Google Business Profile
  • Showcase widgets for your site and booking pages
Web Design

High-Converting Web + Booking

A fast, mobile-first site with click-to-call, online booking, and quote requests wired straight to your inbox — built so a driver on a phone books in under a minute.

  • Click-to-call + online booking on every service page
  • Quote / estimate request forms wired to your CRM
  • Schema markup for rich results and rankings
  • Core Web Vitals-tuned for Google and real customers
Operations stack

Your shop's operational OS.

Five tools that run as one loop — capture, qualify, book, measure, re-engage — so no lead, no review, and no follow-up ever leaks out of the shop.

Playbooks

What “owning your market” looks like for a shop.

Illustrative playbooks drawn from how we build the stack — each is an example of what a motivated repair business can do in 90 days.

General Repair Shop

From page two to the top of the Map Pack

A 4-bay shop does great work but lives on word-of-mouth. The Google Business Profile is half-built, reviews trickle in, and the website hasn't been touched in years.

Playbook: rebuild and post weekly on the GBP, launch an automated review engine, add service-area pages with schema, and run Local Services Ads to skip the line on high-intent searches.

Mobile Mechanic

Capturing the 5pm calls that used to bounce

A solo mobile mechanic can't answer every call while under a hood. Google lead ads come in, but half the callers ghost before the call-back.

Playbook: Local Services Ads dialed to the service radius, an AI voice agent as the after-hours receptionist, 5-second text-back on every missed call, and a weekly dashboard that shows which ZIPs paid off.

Auto Body & Collision

Winning high-ticket jobs back from the chains

A collision center competes with dealer body shops and national chains on jobs worth thousands. Estimates come in, but the close rate is soft and attribution is a black box.

Playbook: high-intent Search + PMax campaigns, a fast quote-request flow with digital authorization signing, and call tracking so every estimate ties back to the exact ad and keyword.

Repair marketing FAQ

The questions every shop owner asks.

Straight answers on timelines, tracking, contracts, and what separates this from the agency that burned you last time.

  • Irvine and Orange County are home base, so our local-pack and Local Services Ads playbooks are dialed in for this market. But the same system works anywhere — we run it for repair shops and mobile mechanics across Southern California and beyond, tuned to each shop's service radius.

  • Two reasons most shops get burned: no tracking, and no follow-up system. We put call tracking on every channel so you see exactly which dollar booked which job, and we wire in missed-call text-back plus an AI receptionist so the leads we generate don't leak out at 5pm. You get a weekly report — not a black box.

  • Local Services Ads, Google Ads, and missed-call text-back typically start producing booked jobs inside the first 14 days. Local SEO, Google Business Profile work, and the review engine compound over 60–90 days — that's where the durable, lower-cost call volume comes from.

  • Every campaign gets source-specific phone numbers, GA4 conversion tracking, and a Looker Studio dashboard. We report weekly on calls, form fills, booked appointments, and cost per lead — so spend is always tied back to real revenue, not vanity metrics like impressions.

  • Word-of-mouth still ends in a Google search — people check your reviews and hours before they call. A strong Google Business Profile and a steady stream of fresh 5-star reviews capture that demand instead of handing it to the shop next door, and the always-on stack is your insurance against the slow months.

  • No long-term contracts. A la carte pricing is published on our plans page, and bundled repair-shop packages are scoped on the strategy call. We'd rather earn the next month with results than trap you in a 12-month agreement.
