    Advertising question

    Whats the best way to advertise. Word of mouth is the best way but is a slow process and must be started by having some customers first. What the best way to advertise, and whats the best way to reach the higher end customers with exotic cars?

    Get yourself some business cards and just go out and talk to people who own the exotic cars you want to detail. Start with high income neighborhoods and go door to door. When you see an expensive car in the driveway, stop by and let the owner know what you have to offer. Hey, it really works and it doesn`t cost you anything more than the cost of the business cards.

    True, but a lot of people frown on soliciting. Be prepared to encounter some less than encouraging people

    Just drive your Ferrari around with some cards and when people are outside or come outside to check what you are driving (very common) you can usually land the deal---unless your charging $500 for a wash n` wax.

    Good luck!

    I`m doing a Titanium 2003 Ferrari Modena Friday--I`m excited. Best part about it, the guy found me here on DC when doing a Google Search.

    I told Dwayne thanks already, but Dwayne, thanks again!!

    Goodluck, and ask the client if he wants a delivery/pickup type of deal (give you a chance to cruise in his Modena)
