Critique my flyer - 06-13-2006, 01:53 PM

I'm in my second week of self-employment (Woot!) and I'm finally kicking the procrastination door closed and making my flyer. My first week of business was already lined up so work wasn't an issue, but now it is!

Little bit of backround info: I got tired of my previous job and decided to start working on my own. A friend of mine was interested in learning how to detail so I've been showing him everything I know, trying to get him prepaired for the real thing. We're going to be partners in the business while we're in school, after we both graduate we'll decide what happens then, but for the time being we'll be making good money, furthering our education, and best of all be self-employed!

Anyway...This is what I've come up with so far...

Are you thinking about selling your car?
Raise it’s resale value


Don’t have time to stop for a car wash?

Set up a maitenance plan to keep your vehicle looking top-notch!


We are a mobile service dedicated to excellence in both craftsmanship and friendly customer service. Quality work at a reasonable price, and best of all we come to YOU!

For more information call:

(XXX) XXX-XXXX
I've got to add some pictures of clients cars, add a border, stuff like that. We haven't thought of a name yet and I know a name would make the flyer more appealing, but this is what I'm working with for right now.

Everyone's input is greatly appreciated!

In the start of the flyer list the three questions with ? this is asking the question that might be their problem.

Then you provide the answer "look no further"


Your company name then comes into play

"Dolan's Detail is your mobile solution"

Then list a few of your services but do not get wordy....on my card its "a full service detailer"

Then last you list the free estimate and phone numbers

That would be my suggestion

Good points, Dave. I've never been the best at organizing a worded document, so I knew I could use the help of others
The name is the big killer...I'd really like to think of something to put on the flyer but I don't want to use an unlicensed name so to speak...I'm going to be licensed, we just need a name...
