Setting up your garage profile on Car Spot is the first step toward building a consistent online presence for your Danish autoværksted. A well-completed profile takes around 30-45 minutes to set up properly — and that time investment will generate visibility and enquiries for your garage for years to come. This guide walks through every section of the Car Spot garage profile setup process, with specific guidance for garages operating in Denmark.
Step 1: Create Your Car Spot Garage Account
Start by visiting /garage/onboarding on Car Spot and creating your garage account. You will need your business name, registered address, and contact details. Car Spot will guide you through the onboarding steps and set up your initial profile. Once your account is created, you can access the full garage dashboard to complete your profile and manage all aspects of your Car Spot presence.
Step 2: Add Your Business Details
- Business name: Use your trading name — the name Danish drivers will search for
- Address: Your full street address so Car Spot can surface you in location-based searches
- Phone number: A direct number drivers can call during opening hours
- Opening hours: Be accurate — set different hours for Monday to Friday and Saturday if applicable
- Website: Add your website URL if you have one
- Description: Write a compelling paragraph about your garage — specialisms, vehicle brands, years of experience, and what makes you different
Step 3: List Your Services
The services section is one of the most important parts of your Car Spot profile. List every service your garage offers, as specifically as possible. For Danish garages, include standard servicing, brake work, tyre fitting and seasonal tyre changes, pre-Periodisk syn inspections, air conditioning, fault diagnostics, and any EV or hybrid-specific services you offer. The more services you list, the more searches your profile can match.
Step 4: Upload Photos
Photos make a significant difference to how drivers perceive your garage before they contact you. Upload at least six photos showing your workshop interior, equipment, reception area, and exterior. Photos of specialised equipment — such as EV diagnostic tools or a wheel alignment machine — are particularly effective at communicating your capabilities. Good lighting and a tidy environment make a strong impression.
Step 5: Set Your EV and Hybrid Capabilities
Denmark has a rapidly growing EV market, making EV service capabilities an increasingly valuable selling point for Danish garages. If your autoværksted is equipped to service electric or hybrid vehicles, make this clear in your Car Spot profile. List the specific EV services you offer — such as battery health checks, high-voltage system inspections, or regenerative braking diagnostics — and mention the EV brands you are experienced with.
Step 6: Choose Your Car Spot Subscription Plan
Car Spot offers free and paid subscription options for Danish garages. A paid subscription plan gives your profile priority placement in local search results, access to the full Appointments and Contacts dashboards, and enhanced visibility across the Car Spot platform. For most garages, the return from even a small increase in bookings will comfortably outweigh the cost of a subscription.
