The agency operates as a specialized division of Kahn Media, building on nearly two decades of automotive, mobility and enthusiast marketing experience. The Garage Agency focuses exclusively on the needs of repair and collision shops, offering a streamlined, easy-to-understand approach to marketing that increases estimate requests and keeps bays full
