Automotive
Marketing for auto detailing, coating and repair shops.
Most customers search for a service and a city, compare a few shops on Google Maps, then call or ask for a quote. We build the pages, listings and ads for that path, and track every call and quote request back to its source.
Clients include AZ Auto Aesthetics, EST Auto Salon and Pure Power Detailing.

Reporting
What we measure.
Calls and quote requests
By service and city, with the ad, page or listing behind each one.
Booked jobs
Checked against your calendar or shop software, not only what the ads report.
Maps activity
Calls, direction requests and website visits from your Business Profile.
Cost per booked job
Ad spend divided by jobs, by service, so the budget follows the work you want more of.
Questions
Questions about marketing for automotive.
Should we run Google Ads or focus on SEO?
Usually both, for different jobs. Ads bring calls this month on the searches you choose. SEO builds the pages and reviews that keep calls coming without paying for each click. We start with whichever closes the bigger gap for your shop.
How long does SEO take for a detailing or repair shop?
It depends on your market and your starting point. Fixes to your Business Profile and site often show up first. Ranking a new service page in a competitive city takes longer, and your plan says what to expect by the end of the first 90 days.
Can you tell which calls turn into booked jobs?
Yes. Tracking numbers show where each call came from, and we match calls and quote requests with the jobs in your calendar or shop software, so reports count booked work, not just calls.
