I’m not sure just how many calls I have gotten from it. But I figure the more I get my company name out there. It can only help.I have my business card up at the community bullitin board in the local grocery store too.My car is a really bright yellow , so you cant miss it on the road.I have my company logo on the side glass.I get the most of my work from word of mouth and from people Googling on the computer “Paintless Dent Removal Clearwater Fla”. The computer is what everyone uses to find any information now days.For some reason my name is one of the first three names that comes up.Its tough for any kind of business these days. You just have to get out there and hussle and do the best you can. Chip

I have to say, I could not agree with you in 100%, but that’s just my opinion, which could be very wrong.
p.s. You have a very good template . Where did you find it?

i agree with chip on tool selection and to make your own tools is a
good idea if you can and u said u have been video traing? have you practiced with any tools yet? on any panels that are off the car? if so try doing X’s and O”s if you dont know what that is let me know.good luck, Troy

Once you have been in the field for a while , alittle bit anyway. You will see what tools you will need and use . I have a tool bag full of tools. There are diffrent tools for diffrent situations. I may have a tool that I dont use for a while. But then comes a time that I’m really glad that I had that a certain tool. Starting out , I would only buy a smaller beginners set. I do business quite often with PDQ Tools. They have always treated me very well. If you see there is a tool that you want , but you want a diffrent modification to it . Let them know and they will custom make it for you. Your need for tools will grow as your exsperience grows. If I can make a tool and save a few bucks. I will do that in a heart beat. Money is tight for all of us. So I try to manage my money as best I can. I only buy what I really need. When you look at how your access to a dent is going to be. What`bends or lenght to that tool is it going to take to reach that dent. And then buy or make that tool. You can spend a ton on tool sets these days. Buy or make only what tools you are going going to need. Time and exsperience will dictate that for you. I’m sorry I havent been on this site that much lately.

Rest easy alignadent. Still have not purchased my tools. If you look at my first post I am looking for advice on which set of tools to purchase. NOT what company too purchase them from. As you said, “Times are tough”. I am trying to learn a skill, purchase tools and market myself which all takes money. I Need a set of tools that will earn me money and not be overkill in the starting stages. I have already made several purchases from PDQ and like the way they do business. I apreciate Ashley’s input, she has been the only one to respond. You say you have been doing this for 8 years, in my mind, that makes you a seasoned Tech. Do you have some advise for me?
