Marketing built for independent auto repair shops

Fill the bays.
Turn diagnostics
into repair orders.

We install the marketing engine your shop should have had five years ago — top-of-Google for "mechanic near me," an AI receptionist that books while your service writer is on the lift, missed-call text-back, automatic declined-work follow-up, and review automation that out-trusts the chain down the road. Month-to-month. No contracts.

Every season is a spike. Batteries, inspection, A/C, pre-winter prep. The shops that show up first capture each one — and book the calendar all year.

The schematic

How the shop runs full.

New customers in at the top. Repair orders closed at the bottom. Every line is a place a call can leak — and every node is a piece we install to plug it.

The full auto repair stack

An entire engine. Not a bag of tactics.

Other agencies hand you a single tool. We install the system. Every piece below makes the next one work harder — which is why the math compounds RO over RO, month after month.

Top-of-Google search ads

Capture the driver typing "mechanic near me" with a check engine light on. Ranked for brake job, oil change, A/C recharge, inspection, alignment — the work that fills the bays.

Local Service Ads (Google Guaranteed)

The badge. The trust. Your phone number above the chain franchise down the road. Pay for booked appointments, not clicks.

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

Own the map pack for every service area you cover. Compounding traffic that doesn't stop when the ad budget pauses.

Meta targeting · commuters & new residents

Hit the driver who just moved into your zip and hasn't picked a shop yet. Be the name they already know when the dash light comes on.

Conversion-built website

Click-to-call everywhere. ASE badges and real reviews above the fold. Loads fast on a phone in a grocery-store parking lot.

AI receptionist & appointment booking

Picks up while your service writer is on the lift. Books the slot, gets year/make/model, captures the concern. Never tells a new customer "we'll call you back."

Missed-call text-back

Every dropped call gets an instant text. Most of them book. The rest don't end up at the shop next door before you can call back.

Declined-work follow-up automation

The goldmine nobody is mining. Every DVI line your customer said no to gets a friendly text or email weeks later — at the exact moment that brake pad or fluid flush becomes urgent.

Scheduled-maintenance reminders

Oil changes, tire rotations, timing belts, coolant flushes — based on each customer's vehicle history. The retention play the chains run on you, finally running for you.

Review automation + service-writer coaching

Five-star reviews on autopilot the moment an RO closes — so you out-trust the chain in the map pack. Plus a weekly scoreboard and help getting your service writer to close more of the calls you paid to get.

From the shop floor

Real shops. Real lifts. Real RO counts.

Built for the 2-to-6-bay independent shop — not the dealership, not the chain. Owner-operated, ASE-certified, winning the market the old-fashioned way.

No contracts. We earn it RO by RO.

Every other agency wants to lock you in. We do the opposite. Every shop, every month — we re-earn the seat at your table, or you are free to walk. The whole thing is built to pay for itself in a handful of extra repair orders a month.
