The Problems We Solve
If any of this sounds familiar, you're
not alone — and you're not stuck
around solving them.
Wasting budget on marketing that doesn't move car count or memberships.
Guessing which channels actually work — social, Google Ads, email, signage.
Stalling out at one location when you're trying to scale to multiple sites.
No clear way to track ROI on the marketing dollars you're already spending.
Watching competitors pull ahead while your growth has plateaued.
Stretched thin between running ops and trying to grow the business.
Working with vendors who don't understand the car wash business.
Membership growth has stalled and you're not sure how to restart it.
How We Fix It

extension of your team
, optimizing every
marketing channel to
increase car count and

Testimonials
What our clients
say about
SplashSource
"As a new company in the car wash industry, we had a lot to learn. SplashSource has been an incredible partner, guiding us with monthly reporting, social media planning, and marketing support. They've helped update our signage, manage our social media, and keep us connected with our community."
Sabrina Allmond
"Working with SplashSource over the years has been amazing. They have an excellent team that understands our business objectives and is focused on driving more business through social and digital marketing."
Alma Medina
"Mary and her team brought consistency, creativity, and strategy to our marketing. From brand identity to billboard negotiations, SplashSource handles it all. We've referred them to others because they simply deliver great results."
Emery Anderson
"I, like many Scots before me, am a frugal man by nature so I started out having SplashSource handle only the Facebook management for Clean Machine Car Wash. After I saw the uptick in business we enjoyed just from those efforts, I decided to sign on for full-service marketing with SplashSource and am so glad that I did. Mary and her team worked with me to develop a marketing plan and helped get the word out that Clean Machine not only has state-of-the-art technology, but is environmentally-friendly as well, a big selling point here in Florida. SplashSource also devised email and print campaigns for us as well as gift cards and menu cards and even got us great prices on printing, taking one more annoying detail off my hands. I'm very happy with the service SplashSource provides and credit them with helping Clean Machine become the success that we are. Mary and her team work hard for me."
Colin Raskin
"Working with SplashSource has been a game-changer for us. Their personalized approach to social media and reputation management helped us grow our customer engagement and Google ratings. They truly understand the car wash industry and deliver real results."

About SplashSource
A marketing agency
built for one industry —
yours
SplashSource was founded on a simple idea: car wash operators deserve a marketing partner who actually understands the business — the membership math, the seasonal rhythms, the operator pressures, and the levers that actually grow revenue.
We specialize in the car wash industry. That focus means our team has spent over a decade learning what works, what doesn’t, and how to build marketing systems that compound over time — not just one-off campaigns that look good in a deck.
From the monument sign at the road to the Google Ad that drove a customer there, we own every touchpoint — so you can stop juggling vendors and start scaling.
