Seasonal Fluctuations

Business ebbs and flows with seasons, making consistent revenue a challenge.

Poor Search Visibility

Your website isn't showing up when customers search for services you offer.

Social Media Presence

Customers expect to find you online, but maintaining social media takes time you don't have.

The Future of Search

AEO vs SEO: What's the difference?

Search is evolving. While SEO targets traditional search engines, AEO optimizes for AI-powered answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and voice assistants.

Traditional SEO

Optimizes for Google search results. Users type queries, click links, and browse websites.

Keyword rankings
Backlinks & authority
On-page optimization

Answer Engine Optimization

Optimizes for AI-powered answers. ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini provide direct answers without clicking links.

Conversational content
Structured data & schema
Direct answer formats

SEO for Google

When car owners search "auto repair near me" or "best detailer in [city]"

Frequently Asked Questions

Automotive marketing questions answered

Everything you need to know about our automotive marketing services.

Budget requirements vary based on your market and competition. Small markets typically need $1,500-3,000/month, medium markets $3,000-6,000/month, and large metro markets $6,000-12,000+/month. During your free consultation, we'll provide market-specific recommendations based on your goals and competition.

PPC advertising generates leads within 24-48 hours and reaches optimal performance in 30-60 days. SEO shows initial improvements in 2-3 months, significant results by 4-6 months, and dominant positioning in 6-12 months. Most clients see measurable improvement in lead volume within the first 30 days.

No. While we recommend minimum 6-month engagements for optimal results, we don't lock clients into long-term contracts. Our services are month-to-month after an initial onboarding period. We earn your business every month through results, not contractual obligations.

We work with all types of automotive businesses including auto detailers, repair shops, car dealerships, collision centers, tire shops, and specialty automotive services. Our strategies are customized for each business type and local market.

We specialize in local service business marketing with deep expertise in automotive. We understand seasonal fluctuations, local competition dynamics, and what drives customers to choose one automotive business over another. We've generated 28,000+ leads for 150+ automotive businesses.

The optimal strategy combines both. PPC delivers immediate leads while SEO builds long-term value. We typically recommend new clients allocate 60-70% to PPC initially, then shift toward 50/50 as SEO momentum builds. By year 2, many clients reduce PPC to 30% as organic search dominates.

We adjust campaigns seasonally to match demand patterns. For example, detailing campaigns ramp up in spring, while repair shops see increased interest in fall/winter. Our proactive approach ensures you're capturing demand when it peaks and maintaining visibility during slower periods.

Our clients typically achieve 300-500% ROI within 6-12 months. For example, if you invest $3,000/month and generate 75 additional leads at $40/lead, with a 35% close rate and $400 average ticket, that's $10,500 in additional revenue—350% ROI. Results compound over time.

Absolutely. Google Business Profile optimization is a core part of our local SEO strategy. We optimize your profile, manage reviews, post updates, and ensure you're appearing in the local map pack for relevant searches in your service area.

Yes. Reputation management is included in our services. We implement automated review request systems, monitor all major review platforms, provide response templates for negative reviews, and help you build a 5-star reputation that improves both conversions and local SEO rankings.
