New Poll -- Your Fav Radio Station
Cudachick you are definately on track in your search and your questions. So many people out there in business think they know so much and are not willing to ask questions and seek advice from others. A good run business should always be on a quest to seek ideas to expand and perform quality work. Also your comment about your work speaking for itself.
That could not be more true and to add to that Good Quality work at an Affordable price is what everyone is looking for. I think on your website a few more pictures of your work and some testimonials from current and previous customers would be helpful in spreading your message on the internet also. Setting up a small booth at local swap meets with sample work has done wonders for some powder coaters around my area.
I hope whatever it is you do, works for you because you seem like a really nice person that contributes a lot to the hobby. There are a lot of Ladies out there that are into the hobby and my hat is off to all of them. Especially the ones like yourself that contribute like you do in performing a lot of work for yourself and others. Your good attitude and willingness to help others and also get in there and seek ways to expand and promote your business will certainly make you successful in what you are doing.
Keep up the good work and MOPAR to you. My Sweetie and Daughter are also Ladies in Business,they have a small shop that My Soninlaw and myself built for them which was actually part of one of my garages! They make a product called Ornies which is actually an air freshner made of baked plastic beads formed to make certain designs and they have many fragrances and designs to choose from,and they also make special order candles in many fragrances.
This is certainly not a plug for there business because they have more orders than they can get out now and do not need any more orders for the products they sell.
I guess it is going to be time to build a larger shop and possibly hire someone to help them in the near future. There product spread like wildfire locally, word of mouth and the sheer smell of there product each time you get into your vehicle makes it sell all by itself.
People that have them in there cars,trucks are asked where they got that from because it smells great or wonderfull. And to top it off sunlight and heat activates its strength of smell even more.
Again this is "NOT" a plug to receive orders or questions about there products but just a few lines to explain that a good product and good attitude backed up by good people sells itself ! Cudachick you are good people with a great attitude so you will not have a problem expanding your business.
