Pays for itself over and over and over and over again ...
 
And, I think, it projects an I'm-Serious-About-Being-A-Professional
image. 
 
Tuned in the early years driving a pretty beat-up old Tempo, no ads. My
rates are much higher now than they were in those days ... I dunno ....
you charge, in part, what you feel comfortable with, and people pay it
if you project that kind of confidence. Having a professional-looking
rig helps me psychologically in that way ... it just feels better.

Subject: Advertising on your car or truck?


List,
 
Do you have advertising on the vehicle you drive?  What works best?
 
I use the same car for tuning and personal use (a Forester).  We don't
have front license plates here in West Virginia, so I was thinking of
making one with my company name and phone number.  Then it occurred to
me that it might be more effective to put lettering on the back window,
where someone following me might see it long enough to copy the number
down.  Then an even better idea came to me: ask for your combined
millions of years of experience.
 
Suggestions?

P.S.  I visited a piano dealer near me this week (western part of
Virginia), and they said between their two stores, they keep 16 techs
busy!  Let's see, 20 pianos a week * 50 * 16 = 16,000 pianos!!  (Maybe I
heard wrong, and it was "six teenage techs"?)

I've heard from a few tuner/techs that use magnetic signs for this
purpose and experience good results for the investment, and enjoy
personal use of their vehicle without the advertising.  Simply stow and
go.
