Garages of America came to us with a problem many brands face on social media: they were posting on their feed but not really saying anything about who they are. Most of their posts focused on cars and car meet-ups, but if you were a new visitor, it wasn’t immediately clear what Garages of America’s purpose was. Instead of clarity, the page brought questions to mind:
- What is Garages of America?
- What exactly do they do?
- Why does this community exist?
Our job was to change that. We set out to turn their Instagram and Facebook from car and meet-up content-focused to the go-to place for understanding the brand, its purpose, and the people who make up the community.
Our Approach
We reworked the content strategy to tell the full Garages of America story—not just what’s parked in the garage, but why the garage itself matters—and to showcase the lifestyle.
We built a simple, repeatable framework centered on three things:
- Stories That Build Community
We started using Instagram and Facebook Stories to boost reach on key posts and highlight photos and moments shared by the community. This accomplished two things:
- Made the brand feel more like a club you belong to, not just a company you buy from
- Encouraged more people to share their own photos and experiences
- Owner Testimonials
Instead of the brand telling people how great it is, we brought in the voices that matter most: the owners. We interviewed garage owners and turned their stories into video content. They spoke about why they bought a garage, how they use it, and what it feels like to be part of the community. These testimonials gave the brand a real, human voice—and a ton of credibility you just can’t fake.
- Focus on The Garage
Yes, the cars are still cool. And we didn’t ignore them, but we pulled the spotlight back onto the garages themselves. We focused on how spaces are designed, how people customize and use them, and the lifestyle that comes with having a place that’s truly yours.
The message became: this isn’t just storage. It’s your space, your projects, your community.
