My marketing agency sends reports, but my shop isn't any busier
You get a nice report every month. You still can't tell if it's working. Here's how it played out at our sample shop, the way a mechanic works a car: concern, cause, correction, verification.
Nate's agency sent a 14 page report every month: impressions, clicks, reach. His car count hadn't moved in a year.
Three campaigns brought in almost nothing.

The cause
Nolavi matched the agency's campaigns to actual repair orders. Two of the five campaigns brought in nearly all the jobs. The other three were brand ads people saw but never called from.
One tap to stop the waste.
3
The correction
We kept the two that worked, turned off the three that didn't, and reported in cars and dollars instead of clicks.
4
The verification
Car count rose from 92 to 104 a week, and the monthly report now fits on one page: jobs, sales and cost per customer.
More cars, less spend.

Questions
Quick answers.
What should an auto repair marketing report show?
Booked jobs, sales and cost per customer, by campaign. If it only shows clicks and impressions, ask for more.
Should I fire my marketing agency?
Not until you see which campaigns bring in repair orders. Often a few work and the rest should go.
