While timelines vary based on your market and competition, most of our auto repair clients begin seeing measurable improvements within 30-60 days. PPC campaigns can generate immediate leads, while SEO typically takes 3-6 months to show significant organic traffic growth. In this Manchester case study, the client saw their first measurable lead increase within 45 days, with substantial growth by month 3.

Our approach combines three key differentiators: 1) Specialized auto industry expertise – we understand the unique challenges of repair shops and detailers, 2) Hyper-local focus – we don’t use generic templates but tailor strategies to specific cities and neighborhoods, and 3) Transparent reporting – you’ll see exactly where every lead comes from. This Manchester case study demonstrates how our localized, multi-channel approach outperforms generic marketing solutions.

We’ve successfully worked with both physical repair shops and mobile mechanics. The strategies differ slightly – for mobile mechanics we emphasize service area optimization and convenience factors, while for shops we focus more on facility presentation and location-based marketing. In both cases, the core principles of strong local SEO, targeted ads, and conversion optimization apply.

For independent shops in competitive markets like Manchester, we typically recommend starting with £1,000-£2,500/month to see meaningful results. This allows for comprehensive SEO work plus a modest ad budget. Larger shops or franchises may invest £3,000-£7,000/month. We’ll work with you to develop a customized plan that maximizes ROI based on your specific circumstances and goals.

Absolutely! In fact, this case study client offered both mechanical repairs and premium detailing services. We created separate marketing strategies for each service line, with distinct messaging, landing pages, and ad campaigns. This approach helped them attract the right customers for each service while maintaining a cohesive brand identity.
