Question

Whats the best way to market a new Limousine Company? What deals can I offer?

Answer 1

With the gas prices the way they are, you are in a good position and a bad position to open a limo company now. But, let's think positive; Build some packages to sell. i.e. wedding package, concert, dinner, girls night out etc...

You want to be able to add extra stuff in there to make more money. Don't plan on making money on just the ride. Make a deal with a local restaurant or movie theater or dance club. Offer the whole package and not just the ride.

Make sure you are making enough money to cover your expenses and your profit!

Now, to get the word out. You want to pay as little as possible for advertising but still get a lot out of it. So, start with local websites like the grapevines. (Check out http://www.manchestergrapevine.com/view/... for sites in your area.) Then place an add on Craig's List, Kajiji and other free sites.

Be sure to contact your local newspaper about you opening up. Write a press release or call your city editor or business editor and ask how to get a story in the paper about you.
