I was wondering if any of you have any any such luck with MIRROR hangers after the job was completed. Are they worth getting? How about full color yard signs, flyers, brochures, yada yada?

Blue on gold plastic business cards here, limited success with flyers unless I put them in a customers hand and have a chat at the same time.

Why gold? because it has value nobody finds it easy to throw away something that is gold, even if it is only a piece of plastic.

Over here in Europe the Belron companies used to use those mirror hangers, not sure about Safelite (also Belron) at your end.
Our own EU located business looked into this but never invested money in this. It appears to be a great communication-tool however in our situation it would just be a waste of money since we (most times) don't have access into the vehicle's cabin (we do fleets, owners/drivers are often not available).

We do have a broad selection of sales literature, leaflets/flyers, stickers etc., various websites, gifts etc.

Interesting. I've always used a clean simple card, but have recently been looking to do something slick and shiny... high res image or something.

Can you post a pic of yours or a similar sample?

Edit... so I see you already answered that one. Still interesting though.

You lost me there.

If you just made the repair , simply leave your business card. Spend wisely when starting out. Most of the time mirror hangers are thrown out, The business card is often put in the glove box or armrest storage area. Visit Vistaprint.com for ideas on Business cards and advertizing items. I dont use yard signs because they are illegal in my city. The locals dont always enforce that. Election posters are the acception and must be removed immediately after the election. Invest in chip savers and stamp your Business and Ph number on it. The customer will keep that.

"Invest in chip savers and stamp your Business and Ph number on it. The customer will keep that."

I'm not familiar the term "chip saver". What is it?

Also, how do I set up my posts or replys so my company info is automatically at the end without having to type it each time? (It's probably obvious - but I'm missing it.)
