Do wraps/stickers on your mobile rig bring you business?

Besides the fact that it makes you look professional to have your mobile rig wrapped or have stickers on it with your company name/logo on it.

Does it actually bring in calls? and out of those calls do they actually book for a service?


Feed back please :xyxthumbs:
 
My wife is a property manager for a real estate company (she manages their commercial and residential rental and lease-option units). She has a Yukon Denali that is wrapped (completely, bumper to bumper) with the company logo and information, and 3 of her 'main' maintenance/repair guys have Ford Explorers with the same. They also just bought a new Chevrolet Dually pickup that is at the shop to also be completely wrapped.

It creates brand recognition. People tell her all the time "Oh yeah, the place with the green SUV's!". The Yukon she doesn't take home, because it's only any good if it's being used! But whether she's driving to the courthouse to deal with evictions or meeting prospective tenants to show a unit; she drives that wrapped Yukon (she only drives her car to/from the office). If she isn't working, there's an assistant in the office who will use it! It creates brand recognition. Same as the maintenance guys going to do repairs, cleanouts, or maintenance- all around the towns they have rental units in (basically the whole county), you'll see those wrapped SUV's. The 'real estate' side is the same way. The owner of the company has a wrapped escalade, his wife drives a wrapped Malibu and they have yet another Yukon Denali that is wrapped for the other 'main agent'. People know the company because they have rolling billboards everywhere.

So people may not look at the wrapped truck and think "Oh, gee, I need to call them"; BUT, when they ARE looking to buy or rent a property, it'll be tough for them to get my wifes company out of their heads! That's marketing! Same reason TV commercials are played over and over and over- they want to be in the back of your mind.

I think mobile detailing rigs that are wrapped and/or logoed (and spotlessly, flawlessly clean 24/7) is the way to go. Even if nobody sees you and calls you immediately, you'll develop a brand image and recognition.
 
Thank for the replies guys.

I was thinking about either putting stickers/logo/some sort of wrap. But in terms of recognition i think keep the rig looking top notch will be best :xyxthumbs:
 
when I am on the job it lets evryone in the area know I am there and what I am doing.get lots of work from it.Just lettered no wrap but still get lots of work from it.I leave it on the job site 24/7 till the job is done.Then they ask the cust how they like my work and get to see it .
 
Just a quick thing to point out, check with your insurance provider before adding your business logo to your personal vehicle. Mine needed the vehicle to be insured for business use when I put one on.
 
My full time job is at the post office and I park my truck out front by the exit. Thousands of people a day see my truck so it does lead to business. I did need to get commercial plates when I put my company name on my truck.
 
Does it actually bring in calls? and out of those calls do they actually book for a service?



mine`s are payed already by the sales that generate in time.
the wrap works....plus the message from it it filters the clients.

Got a call from a huge company and have been detailing commercial trucks for almost five years now. Have had lots of success because my name, logo, and phone number was on my van. You never know when your phone will ring! Now I letter everything!

Yes!!! I park my work vehicle on a busy road everyday. I always poll new customers on how they heard of my services. Quite a few say they seen my truck and wrote down number etc..Its a 24/7 billboard that lets people know who you are and what you do.I always look at business vehicles wraps while I'm stuck in traffic.
