Hello everyone,
I have to make this post because of all the private messages and e-mails I have gotten over the last month or so and especialy the last couple of days. In regards to marketing systems for the windshield repair business, I want to make a few comments. First off I when decideing what system to buy and let alone if you are going to buy one at all there are some words of warning that I am going to pass on.

First off, be very carefull when buying a system to make sure whoever you are buy one from has the fruit on the tree to begin with, I mean have they proven that what they say works. I say this because I personaly know of 4 different system out their right now. Some have good idea's, and some are just horrible. Make sure that whoever you are buying from has plenty of experiance in the wsr business. I say this because I know of several people who have only been in the business less then a couple of years and they see opportunities to sell to people getting in the business that don't know what to do and they jump all over that.

Like anything else they are selling their system to make money, do they have usefull information? Honestly I can only comment on the system I have read myself personaly, I am not going to use this post as a preaching pulpit however please be very carefull. I have to go back to what I said earlyer in regards to the fact do they practic what they preach, or did they just put the manual out to make money and then get out of the business? Do they make rediculous claims like make$600+ dollars a day? <-- you got to be kidding me right? Lets get realistic here.

I just mention these things because when people put out systems they are always very generalized and don't go into specifics about how to do stuff. That is why a long time ago I used to buy all kinds of seminars on tapes and manuals that talked about how to build businesses and all they did was give me generalized information that it looks like they copied out of a book. I personaly have been very dissapointed in the systems that I have looked at because they didn't teach me anything new or anything practical that I could use. Or if it was usefull I would have go spend a bunch of money to get it going. I have learned things the hard way.

I have come to really care about the people on this forum. I think you are all a great bunch of people that really want to help each other out, this is a place we can come together and offer idea's. I do have to make a comment that people have been asking me or stateing to me. I like to share things with people on this forum that have worked for me. I senserly hope that if people are making marketing manuals out there that they do not plagerize me and copy all my techniques and then say they came up with them. Please do not take stuff off the forum and put them in your own systems. Please be original if you are going to make a marketing manual and not copy others. Thank you.
Ok, I am done ranting now. :)

I am glad you brought this up... I remember the guy that was on here last month or so. preaching his ideas and to find out he had been doing this only 3 year.... I did not know you could learn everything in 3 years.

I would not buy from him if it was 29.95 M B G (Money Back Guarantee)

Like you say (field tested) not just for a year or two.

That whole situation was an unfortunate, and turned into an incedent that we didn't need. However in my comments I was being much more generalized. I just want new people to be aware they not all marketing manuals are created equal. Just because they can get it on e-bay doesn't mean its the bible to the industry.

I personaly feel that just by reading this forum as a whole will do 10 times better then any marketing manuals I have seen so far. I could be wrong because like I said before I haven't seen them all.

For all the new folks, Coitster is 100% correct. Save your money, the info on this forum is much more better than any of the marketing kits for sale. Like Coitster, I haven't seen them all either but what I have seen is junk. Just my 2 cents.
