The success of a car wrapping shop in Houston, Texas. Every message answered in seconds, every quote sent, every job booked, without the owner ever picking up his phone.
The moment somebody touches your ad, the algorithm starts recommending them every other wrap shop in the area. Same customer, same minute, six shops deep. Whoever answers first is the one who gets the job.
Wait an hour and you're quoting somebody who already got quoted somewhere else. Industry data
That is where the job actually gets won. Most shops never send a second message at all. Industry data
This is what a day at Filthy Wraps looked like. Messages all day from every app at once: Instagram, texts, Messenger, WhatsApp, email. Every one of them a $3,000 wrap asking to be sold, and every one of them cost money to get. Thousands a month in ad spend to make that phone buzz. And nobody free to answer it.
A lead messages asking what a wrap costs. No answer in a few minutes and they're asking the next shop in Houston.
Ten land at once across Instagram, iMessage and Messenger, and Preston is in the bay with a heat gun in his hand.
Every quote needs the same answers typed out again, all day long.
The deposit only gets collected if somebody is in the chat to ask for it.
A thread goes quiet, nobody circles back, and a $3,000 wrap dies in the inbox.
Messages stacking up faster than one person could type, every hour nobody answered was another Camaro going to a shop down the road, and Preston had zero interest in sitting on his phone all day while cars waited in the bay. So we built the system.
Nobody knows Filthy Wraps like Preston does: the pricing, the film, what's actually worth saying yes to. So we didn't hire a stranger to answer his messages. We cloned the guy who knows the shop best, and put him on every inbox, all day, all night.

“Gabriel and Damien asked me to vouch for them, and honestly I'm only doing it because they delivered for us big time and took care of a bottleneck we had. The system they built works like a clone of us, answering and following up with every lead 24/7, so we're getting the most out of our ads and organic leads. We still have full control too. We were iffy at first, but it's worked extremely well. If you're on the fence, I'd give it a try. It worked for us.”
