The Challenge
- 1
New York auto mechanics spend $5,000-12,000/month on ads fighting for visibility in the world's most expensive local search market
- 2
Cost per NYC customer: $100-250, with fierce competition from Manhattan to Long Island all targeting the same tri-state customer base
- 3
High overhead and parking challenges make NYC repair expensive—mechanics need expertise positioning to justify premium pricing
