- - equipment;
- - Promotional Products.
Instructions
Step 1
Select the type of work that you plan to do. It can be a full range of services for engine repair, body work, painting. If you specialize in only one area, you can become a more sought-after specialist. Customers are unlikely to start taking you seriously if you can easily promise to do any job flawlessly.
Step 2
Find a place to work. In this case, a garage or a small rented space is fine. Take care of the availability of sewerage, electricity, heating. The room can be located in any place convenient for you, but at the same time it is desirable that it can be easily found.
Step 3
Equip the work space. Make minimal repairs in it. You may need a viewing hole. Set up shelving for the required materials. Purchase the most necessary equipment, the amount of which depends on the work performed.
Step 4
Try to provide an on-site car service, since not every owner will agree to leave his car with an unfamiliar mechanic. You can find regular customers and regularly provide them with a standard set of services. This can be interior cleaning, oil change, brake pads, body polishing, car diagnostics.
Step 5
Print inexpensive business cards or flyers and distribute them to acquaintances and in the area where your office is located. Indicate the types of work performed, contact details and directions.
