I heartily agree . . . I've had the same thing happen many times . . . =
there is a down side though . .  you have to drive sensibly all the time =
!!
I also have my website address on the back, and have had customers email =
me . . . "I was following you down main street . . ."
works better than newspaper ads !! . . . also good for visibility, even =
if people aren't looking for iommediate service . . .

  Subject: Prospecting -- Key Source



  Been following the thread and was reminded today of a very important =
source of business: The vinyl lettering on my truck!

  I parked across the street from a small town restaurant (lunch!) and =
found a note on my windshield from a new customer. Then, while =
depositing some checks at the bank, a lady in the drive-up lane next to =
mine was miming and mouthing "Do you tune pianos?" and "Do you have a =
card?" after which she snuck out of her car and came over to get my =
card.

  I paid about $250 for lettering and pictures (both sides and back). =
This one-time expense has repaid itself many, many times.
