Garages · full ramps, new technicians

Full ramps.
Found first.

Drivers search on a phone, often at short notice and almost always locally. We make sure your garage appears in that search – and that your open technician vacancy shows up where people are looking.

No obligation – no lock-in contract

Three searches

Three places decide who finds you.

People rarely search for a garage out of interest. A warning light comes on, the roadworthiness test is due, or the car makes a noise. That search happens on a phone, it happens locally, and it almost always ends with one of the first three entries on the map.

01

The map

A warning light, an inspection due. The search happens on a phone, and one of the top three entries gets the call.

02

The jobs box

The technician market is swept clean. Roles get filled when they appear where people look for work.

03

The AI answer

Classics, one make, electric drives: your specialism is your best search term. AI names it when it is stored readably.

Where it hurts

What keeps you out of sight.

  1. Three map entries, and you are the fourth

    On a phone, the map decides. If you are not near the top there, or your profile has no hours, photos or reviews, you do not get the call.

  2. Your specialism is your best search term and appears nowhere

    A garage that works on British classics or one particular make has the narrowest competition and the widest catchment area. That is exactly what has to be findable.

  3. Nobody sees the technician vacancy

    A notice on the gate and a paragraph on the website reach nobody who is searching right now. Only roles marked up for machines appear in Google's jobs box.

  4. Portals place you next to your competitors

    Booking portals for garage services sell you visibility in a list where your competitor sits right below you – often ranked on price. What sits on your own domain belongs to you alone.

The other search

This is what customers ask ChatGPT.

Skilled staff and customers no longer just ask Google. They type their question into ChatGPT and get two or three names back. Whether yours is one of them depends on what is readable about your business online.

Example questions from your trade.

Customers ask ChatGPT

Which garage near me knows British classic cars?

Who can read the fault codes at short notice without an appointment?

Applicants ask ChatGPT

Which garage near me needs technicians with high-voltage training?

Where do technicians earn above the rate and finish early on Fridays?

ChatGPT names two or three local businesses. Your business: not named
Reference from your trade

This is what it looks like for a business like yours.

The brief
A workshop for British classics: a narrow search term, a large catchment area.
What came of it
A site built on the speciality rather than the trade term. Support has been running since launch.

HOW IT WORKS

4 steps, then no ad budget.

First we measure where you stand today. Then we build the groundwork that search engines and AI systems can read – all under your domain, all of it stays yours.

  1. 01 10 minutes

    We look at where you stand

    What do Google, the map and ChatGPT say about your business today – and who gets named instead? Several runs per question, not a snapshot.

    If it would not pay off for you, we say no

  2. 02 Your effort: one conversation

    The foundation

    Website and careers page on your domain – built so services, location, hours and roles are recorded machine-readably.

    Domain and access under your name

  3. 03 First movement in 4–8 weeks

    Findable

    Google profile and map complete, reviews visible, roles marked up for the jobs box, content written so an AI can quote it.

    What people ask on the phone, answered where they search

  4. 04 Measured monthly

    It grows

    We keep it maintained and sharpen it. Every month you see where you stand in search, on the map and in AI answers.

    New services or roles you add yourself

Questions

What owners ask us before they start.

  1. 01 Our ramps are fully booked. Do we need this?
    Then it is about the kind of work and about staff. Visibility for a specialism brings the jobs with the better margin instead of the next oil-change enquiry. And the same groundwork makes your vacancy findable – in this trade that is usually the tighter bottleneck.
  2. 02 Our customers come by word of mouth.
    And they still look you up before they come by. A map entry without reviews and a site without opening hours cost you exactly those customers – the recommendation gets them as far as the search, not onto your forecourt.
  3. 03 Can you guarantee we rank first on Google or get named by ChatGPT?
    Not a specific position – anyone promising that is selling a bet as a certainty. What we commit to is the work and the measurement: every month you see where you stand. If nothing moves within eight weeks of going live, we keep working without the monthly fee until it does.
  4. 04 How long until something happens?
    The site goes live seven days after you sign off text and images. Visibility on Google and in AI answers builds over weeks, not overnight. If you need someone this week or revenue tomorrow, paid advertising is faster – we say so on the call rather than sell you the wrong thing.
  5. 05 We already have a website. Does it have to go?
    Not necessarily. On the call we look at what sits underneath – often the design is fine and exactly the layer search engines read is missing. Then we add to it rather than rebuild. If the groundwork will not carry, we say that just as plainly.
  6. 06 Do you work for our competitor in the same town?
    No. Visibility is decided locally: two businesses in the same trade and town fight over the same search terms and the same answer – we would devalue both. That is why we take on only one per town and specialism. If yours is taken, we say no.
One business per specialism and area

We never work against our own client.

Two businesses in the same specialism and town fight over the same search terms and the same answer. So we take one per catchment area – named in the contract. If yours is taken, we say so in the first conversation.

The next step

Three businesses rank ahead of you. None of them does better work.

Anyone searching in your town sees a handful of names. If yours is not among them, the job is gone before you hear about it. On the call we tell you why.

What happens on the call

  1. Beforehand we check where you stand on Google and on the map, who gets named in your town instead, and what someone searching actually finds answered on your site.
  2. On the call we go through it together – on your site, not on slides. You see which enquiries are passing you by today, and why.
  3. At the end you have what needs doing, in what order, and what it costs. If it does not add up for you, we say so – that happens.
