Hey Agians - was having a Pre Thanksgiving Dinner with friends and neighbors and didn't realize till the end of the night that I was eating and talking with the operations manager of a local FBO! I told her about B & B and my previous 10 + years of aviation detailing experience and and she told me that they were looking for a good company and have many clients inquiring about aircraft detailing there. So she asked for a price list and said she will pass it along to their clients! This will more than likely triple the aircraft that we have on account to date! Exciting to us and wanted to share with my AG brothers and sisters!
 
Thats awesome! Its amazing how just being a people person and networking can grow your business! :cheers: I recently had a similar experience with a guy I met at a local benefit dinner... turns out he owns a couple coal mines and has garages full of toys for me to detail!!! Better enjoy a Thanksgiving break because it sounds like your going to be busy!!!

Than man and congrats to yourself! Luck and word of mouth has put us where we are - hope all newbie business guys/gals are watching this thread - advertising created nothing - just take care of your clients, do great work, and get lucky ;) - anything beyond that is a waste of time and money IMO

Fixed Base Operator (for those that didn't Bing it). Unless I don't remember my lingo, that's aircraft that come home to the same hangar all the time (as opposed to airlines that operate their aircraft all over the country and have just a few or one maintenance base).

Thanks! Word of mouth is by far the best advertising! :iagree:

Impress clients and word will spread! When I finished the first set of cars for the guy with the coal mines he imediately asked for business cards for his family and friends! Can only imagine whats to come after seeing this guys collection! Luck does play its role too :xyxthumbs:

I may P/M or call you (B&B) in the next few weeks for tips, tricks, and products for Airplane detailing... this same guy hinted on the phone this morning about getting his 4 planes detailed.... we will see if it pans out!
