    Advertising With Coupons

    I had a rep. from Groupon call us a month or so ago, said a fixed detailing shop ran an ad with them the previous month and sold over 700. So naturally I took a good look at it. The fixed detailing shop ran a wash and wax ad for $25.00, $40.00 off their regular price. They sold 783 of these...

    Show your mobile van setup!

    Hey Kristopher, When we were assembling our van I took a look around this site and a few others and couldn't find anything. So I started this: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/16319-cargo-evolution.html We have updated her a bit since then. When my camera gets a charge to it...

    Marketing your car detailing business

    We use Craigslist at least once a week with plain text and a link to our website. Some folks scoff at the idea of advertising on there, but we probably pull two to three jobs a month out of it and untold referrals. We also use Google Adwords. And pull a lot of business our way when we're set...

    Rate this Car! Thank you...

    There have been a few threads about how misleading pictures can be. Unless you get it in the sun so everyone can actually see the paint, I vote for a DQ. ">

    Complain/warning from Home Owner Association

    One of the many reasons I moved out of the city. Only thing to worry about out here are loose cows and giving directions to UPS. I can even blast Waylon loud enough to hear over my Flex.
