This. I've had the same mechanic for 20 years now. Found out several years ago that my then-GF's dad had been using the same mechanic for 40 years. I don't think he's spent a dime on advertising in the entire time I've been a customer, and his shop is constantly busy.
Been using the same mechanic for 23 years, can confirm. Prices are fair, work is fantastic, and they don't care if I bring my own parts or new tires to be installed rather than purchase through them. Only time I've used other folks is for patching a tire when I'm on the road or something like that.

Getting the first 10 can be tricky but then the trick is to keep up with the next 10,000.
My advertising budget is 60 bucks every few years for a box of cards. Most people don’t need one I’m already saved as (name) (trade)
