well ben sorry you woke up on the wrong side of the bed..there are some people on this forum who have some experience that are willing to share so that you don't make some of the mistakes we made..as far as price goes don't be ignorant ....all businesses cost money..its a small price to pay for such large market potential..and your throw together system is missing something that pp2000 has and i'm not going to tell you because you know it all..and i don't have pp2000 and am not on their payroll. have a nice day

For me who had little knowledge of auto paint but an Art Degree it made sense to go the way I did I have been a car salesman for 20 yrs (I consider myself a recovering carsalesman but passed on the 12 step program ) when i talked to the guys there realised they are just like me been selling iron for decades and didnt want to do it anymore the owner got together with a bunch of science wienies at PPG and others and came up with this system and it worked my feeling is maybe I could patch together with trial and error a system that works ok but why do it? no need to reinvent the wheel and my artwork and the resulting small herd of models I use take up my spare time ( I know you guys who know me or see me at shows wanted to know how I get those girls to hang out with me its the well known artist thing try it it works) Either way I bought it flew out there got trained and instantly my business tripled in volume I work less so I have more time for my Art and I get more WR customers because I now have both things and sales managers want to deal with as few vendors as possible making me the choice im certainly not a secret agent for Premier just an exceptionaly happy customer who doesnt mind sharing the wealth. I live my life by the motto "do good things its easy" as many of you know in sept 03 I lost my oldest son to a medical malpractice event I had 2 options get angry kill em all or become a better person and do some nice things to honor his memory so I changed my life and try very hard to continue doing so every day so thats my story (hey wheres oprah?)

It never ceases to amaze me, that when we try and do the right thing and help people, we get treated with suspicion.

Keep on trying to do the right thing what goes around comes around.

I feel personaly there are to many people trying to get into business without spending very much money. I know of nobody who really got going well over here by doing things on the cheap. It seem the more you invest the more determined you are to make it succeed.

Speculate to accumulate.

$6,000 dollars to get another business started that could double your income is total peanuts. Try buying into most other businesses that can return the income you should be getting out of this trade and you will be shocked.

Is it me??? I just want the answer to one simple question.Why is the system worth $6000.00 over every other touch up system.What does it do better? Can you tell me that?? I see several responces that gee...you should spend the $6000.00 because its cheap for a business.You have to spend money to make money ect. ect.blah blah blah and the ones saying this dont even own this system!!( PP2000).I tell you what ,if you want to give advice about the wonders of this business opprotunity maybe you should send them $6000.00 and then maybe you could tell me why to spend it?? Its seems like some of us are fast to jump on this bandwagon but how in the world can you give a credable comment about it if you dont even have it?? I am not saying this is not a good money maker or that maybe I should or should not invest in it.I simply want to know the reasons and pros of this system.I dont think this is too much to ask if after all, we are here to guide and help each other.

I guess it just like college why is it worth spending so much for knowledge thats free in the library? Some one trains me to make the kind of living i do for 6k its worth it all day to me If I had any idea of how it would affect my income and stress level I would have paid 3 times that and not blinked Have a good friend who is a high School teacher he spent 200,000 on a college education that makes him qualified for a 50k a yr job no brainer he has a career that will last until he retires myself I spent 6k make almost double what he does work less hours and dont have to deal with a bunch of spoiled kids worth it to me.

Ben,
have you tried speaking to the people who make the system?

Every week I get people asking me why my system and training is a lot more expensive than all other systems and my answer is the quality of both is far greater.

If they cannot give you any answers go with your gut feeling. I tend to also be soo enthusiastic about some of my suppliers people are convinced I am getting commision when this is ofetn not the case.

Whatever you decide do it quick and get out there earning, each week we put off a decision in business can cost us a lot of money.

Do not forget the only thing we cannot get more of in life is time.

I am sure your son is proud of you, your enthusiasm is contagoius. I have seen a modified PP2000 system ( I am looking a buying a Chip Doctors(Repare-brise) franchise and they use the pp2000 system as a base for theres), and from the results $6000 is a bargin. The results are far ahead of the other squeegee or toner systems. Yes the quantity of product is small, but it goes a long way, from what I saw you get your investment back before needing more products, plus the results are outstanding. Yvan did a demo on my car, and that was 2 months ago, since then we have had every waether extreeme known to southern Ontario, and it still looks 100%.
