The Challenge
- 1
Chicago tire shops spend $3,000-7,500/month on ads competing across sprawling Chicagoland with suburban mega-chains
- 2
Cost per Chicago customer: $65-155, with brutal winters creating seasonal demand spikes followed by summer slowdowns
- 3
Suburban chains offer lower overhead pricing—Chicago shops need winter expertise to justify city premium
The Solution
YouTube monetization in 30-60 days generates $5K-$13K/month stable income smoothing Midwest seasonal variations
Create 120-250+ videos monthly (winter tire testing, Chicago pothole damage, seasonal changeovers, Illinois driving) building regional credibility
YouTube-educated customers understand quality tire value—higher margin sales with year-round Chicagoland engagement
