Facebook Ads for auto detailing businesses: questions
Do detailing videos perform well?
Yes, they are very engaging.
Should ceramic coating have its own campaign?
Yes, it is high-ticket.
Do maintenance plans work?
Yes, for recurring revenue.
How much should auto detailing businesses spend on Facebook ads?
For most local businesses I suggest starting at roughly $1,500 to $2,000 a month in ad spend for one main offer, adjusted for your market size and customer value. Management is a separate flat fee.
Send me your website and where you are now. I will look at your account or plan personally and tell you what I would fix first, even if the answer is that Facebook Ads is not your next step.
