Jonathan Long
Founder & CEO
Jonathan Long is CEO of Leads Near Me, a Franklin, TN agency that has worked exclusively with auto repair shops since 2016. Under his leadership the firm has grown to serve more than 500 shops across the U.S. and Canada, organized around a simple thesis: repair shops fail when they can't fill the bays, so everything the agency builds is tuned to drive car count.
Editorial
Editor’s take
Leads Near Me positions itself as an auto-repair-exclusive marketing agency with over a decade of vertical experience and a roster of 500+ shops served. Their integrated approach — combining website development, paid search, SEO, and Google Business Profile management — is designed to work as a unified system rather than a collection of standalone services. A no long-term contracts policy and transparent pricing structure make them a straightforward fit for single and multi-location shop owners looking for a specialist partner.
What they do
Services
SEO for Auto Repair Shops
Local and organic SEO built around the queries that fill bays: make-and-model repair terms, service-plus-city combinations, and draw-radius expansion for rural shops. The agency treats SEO as a compounding asset the shop owner keeps rather than a rented ranking.
Google Ads
High-intent paid search aimed at customers actively searching for diagnostics, brakes, and emergency repair. Campaigns are structured to prioritize phone calls and booked appointments over raw click volume, with budgets coordinated against organic and GBP performance.
Google Business Profile Optimization
Focused on owning the local map pack, which the agency considers the single highest-leverage surface for a repair shop. Work spans category selection, service menus, review velocity, and photo and Q&A maintenance tuned to each shop's market.
Website Design
Conversion-focused websites built specifically for repair shops, optimized for call capture, appointment requests, and technical SEO. Clients own the site from day one, which the agency positions as a deliberate alternative to platforms that hold the asset hostage.
Multi-Shop and Acquisition Marketing
A dedicated track for operators running 2 to 50 locations or rolling up newly acquired shops. Work includes unifying brand presence across locations, rebuilding local signals for acquired stores, and coordinating budgets so locations do not cannibalize each other in shared markets.
Social Media Management
Positioned as a retention and top-of-mind channel rather than a lead source, used to reinforce community trust for rural shops and brand differentiation for shops competing against national chains.
