Note: It’s super easy to set up your GMB listing and will only take you a few minutes.
Firstly, why do you need a GMB listing?

You go to Google, right? It’s not just you. Your customers do the same thing too. No wonder “Auto repair shops near me” searches have increased drastically.
Here’s a fun fact - 88% of consumers who do a local search on their smartphone visit or call a store within a day? In fact, nearly 46% of all Google searches are seeking local information. This just shows how much your auto repair shop can benefit by appearing on Google search.
