## What auto dealerships & repair shops need to know about marketing in Los Angeles

Los Angeles spans dozens of submarkets — Westside, Valley, Downtown, South Bay — each with distinct demand patterns. Neighborhood-level SEO beats city-wide strategy.

Why this matters

## The marketing problems we solve

### Inventory feeds break silently

Misconfigured Vehicle Listing Ads and Shopping feeds quietly tank visibility. We audit and fix the technical layer most agencies ignore.

### Service revenue is under-marketed

Service has the best margins and most dealers under-promote it. We build the local SEO + paid program that fills service bays.

### Reviews drive trips to the lot

Buyers visit 1-2 dealerships, not 5. Reviews decide which 2. We automate the review-generation engine.
