    Crazy idea that might work

    Your riding down road you see a awesome car that you know needs detailing but how do u get their attention?

    Speed up in front of them nicely....I am putting lettering on my truck tailgate that will read " Nice auto call me for a detail"....Here's kicker I'm gonna have LEDS around lettering that will light up getting their attention...I know crazy but just how I think...LOL

    Watch Count's Kustoms, watch how he "pulls people over." Give that a go and pray you don't get shot :-p

    I would never flag someone down. However, I do have business cards I hand to people and Postcards that I leave on windshields with a handwritten not on How good I could make their car look along with a price (everyone wants to know how much).

    Make sure they're "DOT approved"...
    especially in your State, Local, and
    surrounding Counties' jurisdiction.

    Re: Crazy idea that might work

    Handing out business cards is a great idea BUT leaving a card or anything on someone's windshield is a no no in my book. I don't want anyone near my car and especially don't want anyone leaving something on my windshield. I'm certainly not telling you how to run your business I'm just giving my opinion.

    I absolutely HATE IT when people put things on my windshield! ARRGH!!! Word of mouth is the best advertisement. Do an outstanding job for your customers and the referrals will come your way. This applies to all businesses.

    By chance, do you have a URL to the DOT guidelines Bob?
