About — No Retainer SEO
A one-engagement SEO practice for paint protection film and window tint shops. We set you up, we train your team, we hand over the keys — then we leave. No retainer.
We built this because the agency model is broken for shops our size.
No Retainer SEO is a one-engagement practice serving paint protection film and window tint shops. We set up your SEO, we train your team to run it, we hand over the keys, and we leave. No monthly bill. No hostage-taking. No “let me pull that data for you next Tuesday.”
Why we charge once and leave
Every shop we audit has the same story: four years into an agency retainer, still paying $2,400 a month, still doesn’t know what they’re ranking for, still doesn’t own the reporting dashboard. The agency isn’t bad at their job. They’re structurally obligated to keep billing you.
We’re not. One engagement, one price, and the deliverable is your team being able to run this without us. If we’ve done our job, you never need us again — and that’s the point.
Who we work with
Shops doing $500k–$6M/year in PPF, window tint, ceramic coating, and paint correction. Owner-operated or small-team. Usually between two and fifteen installers, one or two locations, and somewhere between “I’ve never logged into Search Console” and “I’ve been DIY-ing SEO for five years but I’ve plateaued.”
If you’re a national chain, a franchise, or you need an in-house CMO, we’re not the right fit. Everyone else — probably yes.
What makes us different
- 01
We only serve one industry
PPF, tint, ceramic. That’s it. We’ve audited enough shops to know which SEO levers actually move revenue in this vertical and which ones are agency busywork.
- 02
We train, not gatekeep
Every deliverable includes Loom walkthroughs, written SOPs, and a handover call. Your front-desk manager should be able to maintain this. That’s the bar.
- 03
We price the work, not the relationship
You pay once. You own everything we build. If you want a check-in six months out, we bill by the hour, no contract.
- 04
We say no a lot
We turn down shops we can’t move the needle for. We turn down work outside our scope. Good clients deserve a partner who isn’t stretched across 40 retainers.
