Watch Full Video Episode

This episode takes a deep dive into the evolution of digital marketing in the automotive repair industry, with a strong focus on Google’s Local Service Ads (LSAs), website performance, and empathetic customer engagement.

Connor Tracy and Jeff Jackson unpack how LSAs are transforming how shops attract and convert customers. They explain Google’s rigorous verification process and how LSAs differ from traditional pay-per-click models by emphasizing verified leads, call monitoring, and actual revenue generation over vanity metrics like clicks.

Beyond advertising, the discussion touches on ways to stand out, like adding live scheduling, using empathetic CRM communication instead of constant sales pitches, and avoiding wasted ad spend that doesn’t deliver results..

The takeaway: combine technology, transparency, and authentic communication to create trust, efficiency, and loyalty—building a digital presence that drives real business growth.
