At MVP Creative, we specialize in helping auto body shops and collision centers take their brand from invisible to irresistible. 


We’re a video-first digital marketing agency that builds campaigns designed to drive leads, build trust, and book appointments. Our job is to make sure the next car that needs in your target geographies help pulls into your bay, not your competitor’s.


If You're Not First Online, You're Last in Line


Let’s be real, no one flips through a phone book when their bumper gets smashed. They hit Google, scroll Facebook, or check reviews on their phone before making a call.


If your shop isn’t showing up loud, proud, and professional in those first few moments, you’re losing business. You need a digital presence that makes a strong first impression and keeps customers coming back. That’s where MVP Creative comes in.


What We Do for Collision Centers


🎥 High-Impact Video Production

Most body shops post a few “before and after” pics and call it a day. That’s not enough.

We help you showcase your craftsmanship, your people, and your process through high-quality videos designed to build credibility and drive conversions. Think:

  • Shop walkthroughs that build trust

  • Customer testimonial videos that convert

  • Insurance repair explainers that reduce friction

  • Reels and TikToks that drive local buzz


And we don’t do grainy phone footage. Our team shoots with industry-leading cameras like RED and ARRI, delivering crisp, cinematic content that makes your shop look like pros.


📈 Paid Ads That Drive the Right Clicks

Most of your competition is throwing money at boosted posts without knowing what’s working. We build paid ad campaigns that are laser-focused on your customers.

Whether it’s a Google Ads campaign targeting “auto body shop near me” searches or retargeting ads that are displayed to your potential customers after they visit your site, we create content that converts clicks into calls.


Our paid strategies span:

  • Search Ads – Show up first when it matters most

  • Facebook & Instagram Ads – Book appointments directly from social

  • YouTube Pre-Roll Ads – Stay top-of-mind in your local area


📱 Social Media Management that Speaks Local

Why your shop needs to show up consistently on the platforms your customers are already using. We create platform-native content for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Each video is designed to humanize your brand, showcase your expertise, and keep your name top of mind.


Whether it’s a quick clip showing a frame pull, a time-lapse of a repaint, or a “myth-busting” post about deductible policies, we help you turn everyday work into content that builds loyalty.


Why Body Shops Choose MVP Creative

We’re not just a vendor. We’re your in-house marketing engine without the overhead.

Here’s what sets us apart:

  • Video-first thinking – We lead with content that captures attention and earns trust.

  • Data-driven strategy – Every ad, every post, every video has a clear goal.

  • Local knowledge – We understand regional competition and how to win locally.

  • Creative + performance – No more choosing between pretty content and ROI. We deliver both.

  • Independent auto body shops looking to stand out in competitive markets

  • Multi-location collision centers that need consistent branding and lead generation

  • Shops partnered with insurance companies who want to build trust with policyholders
