Cold Carding Parking Lots

Well its good to know that the One car card drop does get some results. While it might not make a huge difference I wouldnt be passing out flyers, just business cards.



Also, when you see someone walking to their car do you ever approach them and tell them what you do?
 
When I passed them out last spring/summer I think my prices were a bit high for my area. While we are rather wealth people in my area have no idea what mobile detailing is so the prices I charged is what scared them off I think. I have to find that sweet spot that gets me some solid business.

In the mailbox is illegal. I said ON, which is not.



"USPS' Postal Bulletin (Issue 21861, 2-17-94, p. 37):"



"Mailable Matter in or on Private Mail Receptacles Mailable matter not

bearing postage found in or on private mail receptacles represents a

revenue deficiency to the Postal Service and is a violation of federal

law. Title 18 United States Code, section 1725, provides for a fine of

not more than $300 per piece for these violations. All employees must

uniformly enforce the procedures detailed in the Domestic Mail Manual,

section P011.2.0. The failure to enforce these procedures uniformly

may jeopardize the criminal prosecution of repeated violators."



...I'd suggest avoiding mailboxes.
 
Wow thanks Vanilla for posting that, I shall think twice before passing out flyers again. While not strictly enforced it is something to think about for sure.
 
seems that the flier thing is getting talked about a lot. I find fliers to work rather well. I have gotten more business handing out fliers then my ads in the yellow pages.



I stick fliers on cars as well as business cards and in the past few years i can count the number of people who didn't like that idea on 1 hand. Most people will hang onto the flier and call me sometimes a year later LoL and some people will just toss it.
 
I put a card and a hand written letter on a 1985 Ferrari Testarosa I came across in my travels the other day. Hopefully I'll get a call, I'm going to need to work on a car like that with all the expenses my car is running me.:bawling:
