The Challenge
The client had multiple locations, modern equipment, and excellent in-person service—but online, their brand was fragmented. Their site was outdated, they weren’t ranking on Google Maps, and they had no real way to promote unlimited wash plans or retarget past customers.
Echo & Impact stepped in to revamp their online presence, drive local traffic, and scale memberships through digital strategy.
Objectives
Increase new customer visits and unlimited membership sign-ups
Improve visibility for “car wash near me” and location-based Google searches
Launch a digital-first loyalty funnel using email and SMS
Track performance across paid campaigns and walk-ins
What We Did
1. Website Overhaul & Mobile Funnel
Built a new, responsive site with embedded location finder, wash packages, and reviews
Added “Join Unlimited Wash Club” call-to-action with Stripe subscription checkout
Created dedicated landing pages per location with driving directions, hours, and local SEO
2. Google Ads + Google Local Service Ads
Ran Google Search campaigns on keywords like “car wash [city],” “touchless car wash,” “monthly car wash plan”
Launched geo-fenced display retargeting for anyone who visited but didn’t convert
Set up Google LSAs for map-level visibility during peak search hours (mornings/weekends)
3. Local SEO & Google Maps Optimization
Updated all Google Business Profiles with current services, photos, and offers
Built citation consistency across 60+ directories
Collected customer reviews through SMS follow-ups, QR codes at pay stations
4. Loyalty + SMS Marketing

We create the Echo. You create Impact.
