Facebook and Instagram ads for detailers

Before-and-after ads that fill your calendar.

Detailing is about as visual as a service gets. A swirled-up hood next to a mirror finish stops people mid-scroll. Facebook and Instagram ads built from your own work, aimed at car owners in the towns you serve, can fill a calendar. Facebook ads aren't part of our plans; Dominate runs Google Ads and Local Services Ads.

The problem

Why detailing ads on Facebook flop.

Boosting a post and hoping isn’t a plan. These are the usual leaks.

01

Boosted posts with no offer

A great photo with no clear next step gets likes, not bookings.

02

Targeting the whole metro

Ads shown to people an hour away, or to people who’d never pay for the kind of work you do.

03

Leads nobody answers quickly

Facebook leads cool off fast. A reply a few hours later often gets nothing back.

04

Cheap offers bring cheap customers

Lead with a $49 wash and you attract people shopping for $49 washes. The offer decides the customer.

05

The same ad for months

Ads wear out as the same people see them again and again. Without fresh creative, results fade.

What works

Ads that bring the clients you want.

Facebook ads aren't part of our plans; Dominate runs Google Ads and Local Services Ads. If you run Facebook ads yourself, this is what works.

01

Offers that attract better jobs

Built around full details, paint correction and coatings, priced with our calculator so every booking is worth the drive.

02

Local targeting

A tight area around the towns you cover, tuned as you learn who actually books.

03

Your work as the ad

Your before-and-afters and short clips. A simple script and shot list makes filming on your phone quick.

04

Instant follow-up

Every lead gets a reply right away and lands in your inbox with their vehicle and what they asked for.

05

Retargeting

People who visited your site or watched your videos see your work again while they decide.

Questions

Fair questions.

Do I have to make videos?

Short phone clips work well, and photos work too. A simple script and shot list keeps filming to minutes, not an afternoon.

Facebook or Google?

Google catches people already searching. Facebook and Instagram reach car owners who weren’t looking yet. We only run Google Ads and Local Services Ads, on Dominate.

What will leads cost?

It varies with your market, offer and season. On Dominate, every lead from Google Ads and Local Services Ads is tracked to a booked job, with a monthly LTV:CAC report.

My ad account is restricted.

Some restrictions can be appealed and some can’t. Facebook ads aren't part of our plans, and Dominate's Google Ads and Local Services Ads don't depend on your Meta account.
