Their check engine light came on twenty minutes ago.
They’re in a parking lot on their phone searching your town, and they’re going to call whoever looks capable and answers the price question. That’s the whole decision. It takes less time than reading this paragraph.
Things I hear from owners in your line of work.
Put real starting prices on the site, or a quote form that asks for the vehicle. The tire-kickers filter themselves out and the ones who do call are already half sold, which means your phone rings less and converts more.
They almost certainly have a page per service and a page per town. Ranking is mostly about having something specific for Google to rank. You can build that.
Quote requests land in your text messages with the year, make, model and job already attached. Answer four of them at lunch instead of missing all four.
A service menu you update yourself. Added ceramic coating? New tint tiers? Change it in the editor, or send me a text and it’s live before you’re back under the car.
Built around how your business actually runs.
These are the pieces that matter specifically for auto repair, tint & detail, rather than a template with your photos dropped into it.
Quote requests with the details attached
Year, make, model, the job they want, photos if it helps. The first message tells you what the work is instead of starting a three-day game of phone tag.
A service menu that’s current
Everything you do, with starting prices where it makes sense to publish them. You update it whenever it changes.
Ranking for the town as well as the trade
Pages built around what you do plus where you do it, because window tint Rockwall is the search that turns into a booking and window tint is the search that turns into nothing.
Before and after galleries
Tint, wraps, paint, detail, bodywork. Nothing sells this trade like proof, and you can add to the gallery from your phone the day you finish a car.
Booking without the phone tag
Let people pick a slot. Wired into your shop software, or standalone if you’re running on a paper calendar taped to the wall.
Built for a phone in a parking lot
Big tap targets, a call button that never scrolls away, fast loading on a bad connection.
One extra job a month usually pays for the site several times over.
A site like this, running right now.
Go and click around. Real businesses, currently trading, and I still work with every one of them.
Two ways to change something, and both are easy.
In your line of work the details change constantly. You should never be waiting on somebody else to update them, and nobody should be billing you for a two-minute edit.
Text me. It’s usually done before you set the phone down.
New price, new photo, closing early on Christmas Eve. Send it however you like: call, text, email, Facebook message. I’m usually on it right away, and I’m not going to nickel and dime you over the small stuff that comes up week to week.
Most of my clients work this way and it’s a big part of why they stay. No support ticket. No portal login you’ve forgotten the password to. No waiting three days on a web company that stopped caring about your account in 2023.
972-853-1626Or do it yourself from your phone in about fifteen seconds.
On the packages that include it you get a plain editor for the parts that move. It looks like filling out a form rather than building a page, so there’s nothing to learn. You can’t break the layout and you can’t accidentally take the site down.
Some owners are in there daily. Others have never once opened it and just text me instead. Both are fine. It’s there if you want it.
The moving parts are yours. Everything underneath is mine. Hosting, security, updates, backups, speed, and anything that goes properly wrong at two in the morning stays with me on every plan. You never have to think about it.
It should connect to what you already use.
Tell me what you run on the first call. If it connects cleanly, I’ll connect it. If it doesn’t, you’ll hear that instead of a promise about something that only half works.
Want to see what I’d do with yours?
Send me your current website and you’ll get a short video back walking through what’s working, what’s costing you calls, and what I’d change first. Free, no obligation, and the list is yours to take elsewhere.
Auto repair, tint & detail: common questions
Yes. Tint, detail, ceramic coating, wraps, audio, wheels, glass, mobile mechanics. Same shape of problem every time: somebody local searches, compares two or three shops on a phone, and calls the one that looks capable and answers the price question. My live proof on this page is an auto service shop rather than a tint shop, and I’d rather say that than imply otherwise. Call me and I’ll walk you through exactly what a tint build looks like.
Starting prices, usually yes. It’s the number one thing people are trying to find out, and hiding it mostly costs you the calls you wanted. For genuinely variable work, a quote form that captures the vehicle does the same job.
Yes. Either connected to your existing shop software, or standalone if you’re currently running on a paper calendar. The second one is usually the bigger upgrade.
Two to three weeks for most shops. Faster if you already have photos of your work. Photos are almost always the bottleneck, and they’re also the part that does the most selling.
Not quite your business?
These four pages exist because I have live clients in them. Most of my work sits in trades with no page here at all. Tell me what you do and you’ll get an honest answer about whether I’m the right fit.
