How to Market for Car Care Month [E015]

Did you know that April is National Car Care Month and October is Fall Car Care Month? These two months are a great way to bring awareness to auto repair while also marketing your shop. Listen in as Brian and Kim talk about marketing your shop through these months and planning a car care clinic.

Talking Points

  • October + April - Car Care Months
  • What we did at our shop
  • Where to find resources: EVERYWHERE. Google, YouTube, Organizations, Other Shops
  • Toolkits, social graphics, press releases, videos
  • A Saturday clinic
  • Quick overview/check-over
  • Not a sales event
  • All preventative
  • Bring in parts suppliers, complimentary businesses, jump houses, child safety seat inspections & demonstrations, raffles
  • Get organized
  • All month long
  • Be open to “Car Care Month Inspections” all month.
  • Consider making a donation to a local charity for each inspection.
  • Take photos of each inspection and share on social
  • Do “Live” videos, reels, TikToks throughout the month
  • Promote your event: press releases, FB events, Chambers of Commerce, BNI groups, radio stations, your events page of your website
