Hello all. Haven't posted in awhile. Still recovering from last posts.

Has anyone had any luck performing headlight restoration in employee parking lots? We have many hi-tech companies like Google, Ebay, Yahoo, HP, etc. that presently provide many services to their employees while at work such as dry cleaning, haircuts, etc. Wondering if anyone has cracked this market.

We surveyed one of Ebay's parking lots (about 2000 cars) but only 1 in 10 were candidates. There is a pattern. At high tech (high pay) companies the ratio of bad lights is one in 10 or less. At any intersection, it's 3 in 10. At Walgreen's or Walmart's parking lot it's around 6 or 7 in 10.


Regards,

Ray

I've always found older people are prone to wanting this service. Older eyes have trouble seeing at night.
You might want to think where they may be.
Small service centers are a great source for work. One, people will ask if anything can be done, and some wont pass a safty inspection. I let the shop sell the service so they make money for just making a phone call.

you might try the flyer method I used to use at the school bus yards placed a flyer on each employee car with a chip saying I would be working there on a specifc day doing the busses and to contact me if they wanted thiers fixed while I am there.
