WANTED: 326 Detailers

Limited Time Great Deal



I have spent the last 90 days immersed in a new project. I completed a system for mass-posting ads on Craigslist and I'm a couple weeks away from finishing a new book on Craigslist marketing (it will be my 7th book). So, here's the good deal...



I'm looking for 300 professional detailers that I will personally represent:



- Auto-posted ads on Craigslist

- Listed in "Pro Detailer" database on Autopia.org

- Product discounts



What's the catch? You must meet the following requirements:



1. In business for more than one year



2. Detailing is your full-time job



3. You have posted at least two "Before and After" threads of your work



4. You provide phone numbers for three customer references



5. Your business services a Craigslist city in the USA (I will explore Canada and UK at a later time)



6. You agree to a co-branded ad (ad will include the Autopia.org logo and URL)





What's this worth to you? That all depends on how good you are at doing your own marketing. If you have marketing experience and you've mastered using Craigslist (or other sources) to get new clients, you don't need my help. On the other hand, if you're not a marketing professional and you want a steady stream of new clients, my program is a great deal.



What does it cost? For all of 2009 it will be FREE. In 2010 I will evaluate the possibility of a modest cost to help me pay for my investment.



I need 25 candidates to launch. Any fewer than that and it won't be worth doing. Sign this thread if you're interested. As soon as we hit 25 I will setup the process for detailers in the program to submit their information for ad creation.



:waxing:
 
wow i wish i could do this but im not a pro detailer.

people better take advantage of this what do you have to lose? a little time
 
I'm in as well as per the PM.



This means I'm going to have to post a Click & Brag. I don't care what car it is, next paint correction I do is getting a thread with 11ty hundred pics. :getdown
 
Are you going to PM us with request for info or are we supposed to PM you with all relevent info? Do we need to provide links to the C&B's or are you just going to look them up? I guess I should've asked all this in my first post.

You're out! haha I think we'll need the first 25 to sign up before any info is exchanged, etc. That said, I sent David a brief PM regarding this so you might as well
 
Right. No need to exchange info just yet. I want to see if we can get at least 25 people interested. Frankly, I don't know why you wouldn't want free publicity, but who maybe some of you have more business than you can handle.



When we have 25 people, I will get to work on a login console for exchanging info.



A couple of you have asked me in PM what I mean by co-branding. It simply means that every ad I post for you will also include my Autopia logo and URL (e.g., "Proud member of Autopia.org"). After all, if it's not an equal benefit for all of us, why would I do it? The cost for me to do this for 300 detailers will be about $5,000 per year. Craigslist might be free, but the technology to 100,000 ads in a year is not.

I would be interested, but I haven't posted anything in Click & Brag and don't plan to. I don't document my work with pictures--gets me out of my "groove" and slows me down too much. Bummer :nixweiss
 
I love to give this a try. Sounds like a wonderful opportunity to start up another detail rig.



What will you do if one of our competitors signs up as well?



I service the greater Los Angeles area.

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Frankly, I don't worry about competitors.



More specifically, though, I will only be taking one advertiser per Craigslist city. That's why it's limited to about 300 people. There are 326 Craigslist cities in the USA.



Ya snooze, Ya loose!
 
No worries, just didnt want an exact ad right next to another detailer in the same craigslist city.



You answered my question - I'm in! - thanks
 
When you figure in Canada, I might be in, meaning too busy now, but I might be expanding.



Also great offer David.
 
With number of PMs I'm getting, it looks like we might hit 25 by the end of the weekend. I'll get started working on a sign-up tool.
