    Cards Disappearing

    I swear they're being used for kindling or eaten. I like many of you have a couple businesses in town that allow me to keep a supply of my business cards on their front counter, that's great. The cards are being taken which is great but where the heck are the phone calls.
    Do any of you deal with a similar situation?

    What are some of your methods to get your cards out?

    Thanks Steve

    Re: Cards Disappearing

    This is because not everyone you hand a card out to is going to call you. You might get 1 out of 20 people, you might get 1 out of 50 people, you might just get 1 out of the whole box of cards you have bought. But if that 1 out of the whole box turns into a good deal then can you say it was worth it?

    Re: Cards Disappearing

    Cards are one of the cheapest methods of advertising. They are also "a dime a dozen" as far as how many an individual collects/saves/throws away. Each card could be viewed like a grain of sand on the beach instead of the billboard that is posted along the road to the beach. IMHO

    Re: Cards Disappearing

    ^^ I would not do that. IMO, I think this is very unprofessional. Really tics me off when/ if anyone thinks they have the right to touch my car in any way shape or form!

    Agree, if anything is on my car I will call that number and express my discomfort with them touching my car, I would then tell everyone I know to never do business with that place. That's just my feelings other people may love finding a business card on their car. Perhaps they would feel special like you hand selected them.

    Re: Cards Disappearing

    Yeah, the people most likely to want their car detailed are the ones who really dislike anyone touching it without permission. Whenever I find something placed on my car, it immediately goes into the 'do not ever do business with this company' file.

    Re: Cards Disappearing

    I too take it very unkindly when I find someone thinks they can just touch my stuff like that. Lean over my fender, pull up my wipers (which could slam down depending on how high they pick it up and break my windshield), and leave something under it. Or push something into my window molding. Just erks me. Like paying to go to a car show (Carlisle) and coming back to my car and it looks like some trash bin for flyers!!! UGH
