The Story

How The Copilot Found Namh Medias

Every great partnership starts with trust. The Copilot — a car rental startup in Guwahati, Assam — came to us through a referral from one of our existing clients. That referral changed the trajectory of their entire business.

When we first met The Copilot team, they had 6 to 7 cars, enormous ambition for Northeast India’s largest city, and virtually zero digital presence. No Google rankings. No Google Maps listing. No paid ad campaigns. Just a great service and the drive to grow in a competitive market.

Guwahati’s car rental market had established players with years of online history. For The Copilot to win, they needed to leapfrog the competition entirely. That is exactly what we built together over the next 12 months — and why the partnership continues today.

The Problem

Challenge & Our Approach

The Challenges

  • Zero Google presence for all car rental searches
  • No Google Business Profile set up
  • Competitors had 3+ years of online head start
  • No paid ad campaigns running
  • Small fleet (6-7 cars), limited bookings
  • No way to track leads or customer calls

Our Strategy

  • Hyperlocal SEO for “car rental Guwahati” + 40 terms
  • Google Business Profile full setup + reviews
  • Target Top 3 Google Maps Local Pack
  • Meta + Google Ads for direct bookings from day one
  • Website SEO — technical, on-page, content, schema
  • Monthly reporting and continuous optimisation
What We Did

Step-by-Step Strategy

1

Market Research & Competitor Analysis

We mapped Guwahati’s entire car rental digital landscape — keyword demand, competitor rankings, and search intent patterns. Every booking-intent keyword from “self drive car Guwahati” to “Assam outstation cab” was catalogued and prioritised by conversion potential.

2

Google Business Profile — Full Setup & Domination

Built The Copilot’s GBP from zero. Complete category setup, service listings, photo uploads, Q&A population, weekly Google Posts, and a systematic review generation strategy. Within weeks, 5-star reviews flowed in and Maps rankings climbed fast.

Website SEO — Technical, On-Page & Content

Complete website overhaul — title tags, meta descriptions, page speed, mobile optimisation, LocalBusiness schema markup. We built dedicated service pages for airport transfers, outstation rentals, and corporate hire, each targeting specific high-converting Guwahati searches.

Social Media Ads — Facebook & Instagram

Targeted campaigns reaching travellers, corporate professionals, wedding planners, and tourists in Guwahati and across Assam. Continuous A/B testing of creatives and audiences — reducing cost-per-lead and increasing booking conversions month after month.

5

Google Search Ads — High-Intent Bookings

While organic SEO built long-term authority, Google Ads captured immediate high-intent traffic. Tightly structured campaigns targeting “car rental Guwahati”, “airport cab Guwahati”, and “self-drive Assam” with conversion-optimised landing pages ensuring every click counted.

Monthly Reporting & Continuous Optimisation

Every month: ranking reviews, call volume analysis, ad performance deep-dives, content updates, review management, and bid optimisation. This iterative loop creates compounding growth — stronger every quarter — and is why The Copilot keeps their partnership with Namh Medias active.
