Scaling Services with Paid Ads
Elev8Ads optimized his strategy, generating consistent leads with lower costs and higher booking rates.
Understanding the Challenge
Dino’s Mobile Auto Mechanic had years of experience and a solid local reputation, but no online presence.
Most new clients came through word of mouth, and although the service was excellent, his schedule was not always full. He needed to turn word of mouth into a steady flow of qualified customers.
Before working with us, Dino had no active social media accounts, no Google Business profile, and had never run online ads. That meant missed opportunities, low visibility, and zero predictable lead generation.
The challenge: attract daily service requests through local visibility and paid traffic, fast, effective, and on a low budget.
Our Approach
We started with the essentials:
We created and optimized his Google Business profile to appear in local searches.
We set up a simple but professional Instagram presence, showcasing services and customer testimonials.
We launched Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram) campaigns that led directly to WhatsApp.
The strategy included:
✅ Hyper-local targeting (within a 5-mile radius) focused on people interested in car repair services
✅ Straightforward creatives with before/after photos, mobile mechanic benefits, and trust-building elements
✅ Clear CTA: “Send us a message and book now.”
✅ Weekly optimization based on which ads generated the most conversations
In just a few weeks, Dino went from relying solely on word of mouth to receiving daily leads, from new clients who already trusted his service and were ready to book.
