How much does a detailing lead cost with RankMeHi?

We have not published a price for detailing leads yet, so it is set by our published rule: no more than 5% of your average detail or coating job, and never above the lowest price a lead marketplace publishes for the trade. The exact figure is written into the agreement before you sign. Before that there is a $490 founding-partner setup, which covers the design and a fast five-page site, live within 21 days of receiving your content or the setup is refunded, and $99 a month for hosting, the tracking number and your lead ledger. Your first three approved leads are free.

What counts as a billable detailing lead?

A new customer, inside the area you cover, asking about a package or service you offer, on a call over 60 seconds or through a form or text that describes the car and the work. Suppliers, job seekers, the fleets and dealers you already serve and repeat contacts within 90 days are never billed, and any lead can be rejected within seven days with one tap.

I am mobile only. Does the site work without a shop address?

Yes. Your site and Business Profile can list a service area instead of a street address, and the pages are built around the towns you drive to. A request from outside that area is not billed.

Do you work with more than one detailing business in my city?

No. Leads are exclusive, so we take one partner per trade in each city. If your city is already taken we will tell you on the first call, and the fixed-price website project is still open to you.

Why detailers lose calls

What a detailing business's site has to do differently.

In one lineAuto Detailing marketing from RankMeHi is a site, local SEO and a Business Profile built at cost, billed at a price set by the 5% rule per lead the detailing business approves.

Detailing is planned and seasonal. People book before selling a car, after a road trip, when spring pollen lands or before winter, and they compare two or three detailers first. What decides it is photos of real cars, a clear list of what each package includes and whether you will come to them.

So the site we build for a detailer leads with the work: before-and-after photos tagged by service, packages with what is included, and the towns your van covers. Ceramic coating and paint correction get their own pages, because those are the bigger jobs where a customer reads everything before booking.

What we build

Six things every detailing business site gets, written for your jobs.

The same build as our fixed-price project: designed in Figma, shipped as a fast static site, edited in a CMS your team can use. These are the parts specific to your trade.

01
Packages with what each one includes
Interior, exterior, full detail and maintenance wash. What is done, how long it takes and whether the price changes with vehicle size.
02
A ceramic coating and paint correction page
The prep, the product you use, how long it lasts and how to look after it. These customers research the longest.
03
A gallery of your own before-and-after work
Compressed photos that load fast on a phone, labelled with the car and the service. No stock images.
04
Your mobile service area
The towns your van covers, what you need on site such as water, power or shade, and whether you also work from a shop.
05
A booking form with the car’s condition
Make, model, size, pet hair or stains and a photo, so you pick the right package before you arrive.
06
A Business Profile fed with new photos
Fresh work posted to the profile each month and linked to the matching service page.

What you pay for

What counts as a auto detailing lead, and what never does.

The rule is the same for every trade: a new customer, in your service area, asking about a service you offer, on a call over 60 seconds or through a form or text describing a real job. Here is what that looks like for you.

Billed at your written price

A car owner in your area sends the form for a full interior and exterior detail before selling, with a photo of the seats
A caller asks about ceramic coating on a new SUV and stays on the line for three minutes

Never billed

A dealership or fleet you already invoice booking its usual cars
A coating brand or chemical supplier pitching products
Someone asking for a job on your crew
Anything you reject within seven days, one tap, no reason needed
Your first three approved leads

Cost of a lead

What a auto detailing lead costs, side by side.

The price per approved booking request is at most 5% of your average detail or coating job, below the lowest marketplace price, and set in writing before you sign.

Proof

What we can show, honestly.

The closest proof we have is two automotive sites: Aria Glass, an auto glass shop whose site form logged 291 quote requests from November 2023 to September 2026, and ICC Collision, a collision shop whose form logged 315 from December 2023 to August 2026. We have not published a result for detailers yet, which is why the first partner in this trade gets founding terms.
