Big Island Formula for Success:
1. Offer a service that people need.
2. Actually do a good job at the service you offer.
3. Answer your phone.
4. Show up. On time is actually secondary to showing up.
This alone will help you surpass your competition quickly, as well as, spread word of mouth advertising, which is essential.
The big trick is...make sure you actually want to do the service you are offering because you may have more work than you can handle if you follow the above formula.
Then again I am just the consumer...what do I know?
Thought I saw a postal place coming soon in Keeau next to the Bay Clinic when I was there recently.
An actual do it yourself carwash would be nice. Problem would seem to be cost of land and carwash trash scavengers (Like myself when I was a kid)and dumpers.
Oh what a grand day it was to ride in to a carwash stall and have it still spraying so we could clean our bicycles and rummage through the trash cans.
Who needs to be 18 or 21 if all you have to do is dig around a bit for contraband?
“They are so perpetually alarmed with the apprehensions of these and the like impending dangers, that they can neither sleep quietly in their beds, nor have any relish for the common pleasures or amusements of life.” Gulliver’s Travels
