I received a call from a prospective client who owns a car wash in a small town that already has eight other car washes of all kinds (do-it-yourself car washes, car wash at gas stations, and full service car washes).
The car wash in question is new and they need help creating awareness and bringing in more business. They have already tried direct mail with $3 discount coupons.
They only offer soft cloth exterior washes - no brushes - in three different packages, and a do-it-yourself vacuum system. What is different about this wash is that the car sits on a conveyor belt that moves the car through opposed to driving into the car wash and parking.
Some ideas I have is to use the media (a radio station) to broadcast on location, or partner with a charity and have newspapers editors/reports on hand.
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help.
