Google & Meta ads built for auto repair

The problem

Why ads for auto repair shops usually fail

Generic 'auto repair' ads miss the highest-value searches

Drivers don't search 'auto repair' — they search 'brake repair near me,' 'check engine light,' 'transmission shop.' Each is a different buyer with different urgency. Outbound builds a dedicated campaign for each so bids and copy match the job.

Every service type is its own campaign

Brakes, transmissions, oil changes, AC repair, alignment — they're different keywords, different AOVs, different urgency. Outbound runs them as separate campaigns so bids and creative match the job.

Fleet and commercial accounts are hidden 10× revenue

A single fleet account is worth 50+ residential service calls per year. Outbound runs B2B campaigns targeting local delivery companies, contractors, and small businesses — a segment most independent shops never advertise to.

How it works for auto repair shops

Every ad, every platform, on autopilot

The AI is trained on auto repair business keywords, buyer journeys, and ad policies. Here's how it handles the campaigns that matter most.

01
High-urgency service campaigns

'Check engine light,' 'brakes grinding,' 'car won't start' — urgent keywords with 24/7 scheduling and landing pages tuned for same-day booking.

02
Specialty repair campaigns

Transmission, AC, diesel, foreign car — niche campaigns with specialty keywords and higher AOV. Much less competition than generic 'auto repair.'

03
Fleet and commercial account funnels

LinkedIn and Google B2B campaigns targeting local delivery businesses, HVAC companies, general contractors — anyone running a fleet of vehicles.

04
Google Local Services Ads

We manage your auto repair LSA pack so your shop lands 'Google Screened' status at the top of local searches.

FAQ

Questions auto repair shops ask us about ads

Can you target specific repairs like transmission or AC?+
Yes. Each specialty repair gets its own campaign with dedicated keywords, ad copy, and landing pages. Transmission work averages $2,500+ per job — high enough to justify aggressive bids on niche keywords.
How much should an auto repair shop spend on Google Ads?+
Most shops start in the $1,500–$4,000/month range depending on bay capacity and service mix. Outbound runs a budget calculator during onboarding that factors your service area, competition, and typical repair-order value to recommend a starting spend.
Can you help us win fleet accounts?+
Yes. Fleet is the biggest revenue opportunity for most shops. We run B2B campaigns on LinkedIn and Google targeting local delivery companies, HVAC shops, and contractors with 5–50 vehicles.
Do you integrate with Mitchell1, Shopware, or Tekmetric?+
Yes. Lead data from your ads flows into your shop management software automatically, so your service writers get booking requests with full context.
