What is actually wrong
Four numbers that make shop owners leave. Four that replace them.
Each column is a figure a repair shop runs into, with where that figure comes from, and the published Ziwi figure that replaces it.
The website
$3,000 to $8,000
What a repair shop is quoted to have a website built
Typical agency range for a shop site, Ziwi market notes 2026. A range vendors advertise, not a survey.
At Ziwi
$0
The $1,000 build fee is waived when you keep a plan 12 months. Hosting included.
A change
Weeks
How long a small website change waits
The word shop owners use in reviews. No measured industry average for this exists.
At Ziwi
24 hours
Small edits and content changes, done, by the person who built the page.
The calls
Not tracked
Which repair orders came from marketing last month
What shop owners describe: forms counted, calls not, the month a guess. Not a measured average.
At Ziwi
Every call, tracked
Each call matched to the search, ad or map listing that produced it, reported weekly. Results vary by market, offer and spend.
The agreement
12 months
A typical agency contract term
One agency estimate with no named survey behind it. Treat it as a common term, not a statistic.
At Ziwi
Month to month
You own the website, the domain and the ad accounts. Leaving costs $0.
Two of the four figures on the top row are words rather than numbers, because no measured industry average exists for either: "weeks" is the word shop owners use for how long a change waits, and "not tracked" is how most shops describe their calls, not a count of anything. Every Ziwi figure under the rule is published on this site today.
