Small Torque

Don't know where to start with your bodyshop social media? We offer a completely 'done for you' social media service, by bodyshop people for bodyshop people.

As a bodyshop owner, you have a million things to do every day, but posting to your social media pages doesn’t have to be one of them. We take social media off your “to-do” list, so you can focus on what you do best – repair vehicles.

Real photos > stock photos. Every. Single. Time. 📸

If you run a car bodyshop and your social media is all polished stock images of perfect workshops and ‘overly smiley’ models in spotless overalls… your customers can see it from a mile away. And honestly? They scroll straight past.

When you post 'real photos' of your workshop, your team, and the actual cars you’ve worked on:

✅ People see the faces behind the business
✅ Locals start to recognise your shop when they drive by
✅ Customers feel like they “know” you before they even walk through the door
✅ Engagement skyrockets (because authenticity always wins!)

Your followers want to see the paint dust on your floor, the happy faces when you hand back a freshly repaired car, and maybe even that one team member who loves a photobomb. 😊

The beauty is... you’re not just showcasing what you do. You’re building trust. You’re reminding people that you are real, local, and genuinely proud of your work.

💡 Pro tip: Take pics on the job, not just the finished product. People love a good “before & after”!

Real photos on social media just hit different!

Want to be the 'talk of the town' (for all the right reasons)? 🗣️

You repair hundreds of vehicles a year, save many people in their time of need … but does your local community even know you exist?

If someone has a bump in a car park or an accident that was not their fault, they need to know exactly who to call first - YOU!

But if you're hiding in the shadows with no online presence, your competitors are stealing the limelight (and the leads).

That’s where Small Torque comes in. We’re experts in bodyshop marketing!

We’ll make sure YOUR NAME is the one everyone knows following an accident - and make you the 'talk of your town'.

#11 SMALL TORQUE SHORTS: So what are the pitfalls of using social media? (even more relevant now in 2025/26)

It’s important to remember that your social media profiles represent your shop window and may be the first impression many customers have of your bodyshop.

✔ Keep content professional and consistent. Irregular, poorly designed content can have a negative impact on your business.

✔ Don’t solely focus on follower numbers. Followers are important, but more importantly the content you post is key to your social media success.

✔ Repetitive, boring, or continuous sales focused content will drive followers away. You should follow the 80/20 rule

✔ Engage with your audience, responding to comments or messages, ignoring is a recipe for disaster.

To conclude… Social Media is still playing a pivotal role in 2025/26 and it is more important than ever for the continued success of your business.

📞 For bodyshops who either don’t have the time, expertise or resources, get in touch with Small Torque today!

Thinking about a photo or video shoot at your accident repair centre? 📸

Check out some of the highlights from our recent shoot at MSC Accident Repair Centre in Southall.

Our bodyshop shoots go beyond the usual glossy shots of equipment and shiny cars. We focus on what truly sets you apart; your people!

It’s not just about showcasing your facilities, it’s about telling the story of your team, the personalities behind the tools, and the passion that drives your customer service.

In this industry, customers don’t just choose a bodyshop - they choose you. They want to see the faces they’ll meet, the care behind the service, and the human touch that makes the difference after an accident.

Bring the heart and soul of your business to life through professional photos and video. 💙
