Auto shops win or lose on trust. ReelPerk lets your satisfied customers build it for you: a QR code at the service counter, a 15-second video at pickup, and a perk by text toward their next visit once you approve the clip.

Why it works
Why customer video works for auto repair and detailing shops
Drivers assume the worst about repair bills, and a page of anonymous five-star ratings doesn't change that. A real neighbor on camera saying the quote was honest and the car was ready when promised does. For detailers, the car itself is the proof — a customer walking around a gleaming vehicle is content that sells the next job.
Pickup is the right moment. The customer is relieved, the car is fixed or spotless, and they're standing at your counter with their phone out to pay.
How it works
How ReelPerk works in three steps
Customer scans your QR code
It opens a page with your business name, logo and colors in their phone's browser. No app, no account.
They record a 15-second video
They tick a consent box, record, check the preview and enter their mobile number.
You approve, they get the perk
The clip lands in your dashboard. Approve it and the perk is texted to them automatically. You download the video with a ready-to-post caption.
Perk ideas
Perks that work for auto repair and detailing shops
- $15 off the next oil change. Brings them back on a predictable schedule.

Placement
Where to put the QR code
- At the service counter. During payment and key handover.
- On the invoice or key tag. For customers who'd rather record later.
- In the waiting room. For repeat customers happy to talk while they wait.
What to ask
What to ask customers to say
One open question is enough — scripts make testimonials sound fake. Put one of these on the sign next to your QR code:
- “What did you bring the car in for?”
- “How was the communication and the price compared with what you expected?”
- “Would you send a friend here, and why?”
Questions
Questions from auto repair and detailing shops
- My customers aren't social-media people. Will they do this?
- They don't need to be. There's nothing to download and nothing to post — they scan, talk for a few seconds, and type a phone number. You handle where the video goes.
- Can I use the videos on my website and in ads?
- Yes. Each customer consents before recording to their video being used publicly in your marketing and advertising, and you can download every approved clip as an MP4.
- We have two locations. How does that work?
- Create one campaign per location, each with its own QR code, and compare them side by side in the dashboard.
