A BRAND THAT TRAVELS

A mark for the shop.
And everything beyond it.

Three exploratory identities for signage, uniforms, appointment reminders, and the web. Refine the favorite into a final vector logo and brand kit.

Concept artwork. Final lettering, production files, and trademark clearance would be part of brand development.

02 / BEHIND THE COUNTER

A calmer day.
A more connected shop.

One place to see incoming requests, customer decisions, and what needs attention. Explore the sample views below.

Proposed functionality only. These screens do not connect to shop records, send messages, process payments, or run ads.

FOR THE DRIVER

Less wondering.

Appointment confirmations, photo inspections, clear estimates, repair updates, online payment, and vehicle history.

FOR THE SERVICE ADVISOR

Fewer interruptions.

A shared request queue, approval tracking, service reminders, and a clearer handoff between the counter and technicians.

FOR THE OWNER

A clearer picture.

See which sources bring booked work, which customers are due back, and which offers turn into completed visits.

03 / THE OPPORTUNITY

More than a better-looking website.

A suggested sequence: make it easy to contact the shop, improve the visit, then grow repeat business.

01 / FOUNDATION

Turn interest into appointments.

Fast mobile website with tap-to-call and clear services
Appointment requests with advisor confirmation
Editable coupons with dates, terms, and redemption tracking
Local service pages and a consistent Google Business Profile

Measure: qualified calls → confirmed appointments

02 / CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE

Make service feel effortless.

Text and email confirmations with customer consent
Inspection photos and itemized estimate approvals
Repair status updates and hosted payment links
Customer garage: vehicles, receipts, and service history

Measure: response time → approval time → pickup

03 / SMARTER GROWTH

Give customers a reason to return.

Maintenance and declined-work follow-up
Google search campaigns for local service demand
Facebook / Instagram seasonal campaigns and audiences
Review requests, referrals, and fleet service inquiries

Measure: completed jobs → acquisition cost → repeat visits

MARKETING WITH A FEEDBACK LOOP

Don't stop at the click.

Connect campaign source → inquiry → confirmed appointment → completed repair. Judge marketing by the work it brings into the shop. Start with a small, owner-approved test budget and expand based on actual results.

Google: capture local intentMeta: build local awarenessCoupons: track redemptionsFollow-up: encourage return visits

Channel strategy is a proposal, not a forecast. Ad accounts, platform permissions, consent, tracking configuration, and budget approval are needed before launch.

KEEP WHAT ALREADY WORKS

Build around the shop.
Not the other way around.

The current website carries Mitchell1 SocialCRM branding. First, confirm the actual shop management system, available integrations, and data access. Then decide what to connect, what to keep, and what needs a custom workflow.

Connect first

Reuse reliable customer, vehicle, scheduling, and invoicing data where supported.

Avoid double entry

If an integration isn't available, start with a request inbox and a clear manual handoff.

Keep ownership clear

Shop-owned domain and accounts, role-based staff access, private records, backups, and export options.

04 / LET'S SHAPE IT TOGETHER

What would make the biggest
difference to your day?

01 Which direction feels most like Y-Car?

02 Which shop software do you use today?

03 Where does the counter lose the most time?

04 Do you want more work, better work, or more repeat visits?

The next step: choose a look + choose a first phase.

Then map the real workflow, confirm integrations, and prepare a scoped build proposal.
