[quote:Philligan:MV8yMTI1MTg5XzM1ODczNDUyX0ExMzBENzJC] [quote:snark:MV8yMTI1MTg5XzM1ODczMzkxXzkxQzNERjE4] If he wants to keep running, one thing to concentrate on is weddings. People get married all of the time, we do a huge amount of wedding business. Get to know the wedding planners, go to bridal shows, get to know other wedding vendors. Great steady business, and if he happens to own a classic/antique car that's real cool, I'd market that for the bride and groom getaway car and let the wedding parties go in the limo.

Original Message
My friend has a Limo company, he's been in business for 15 years and done well for himself, until the past few years.
So far this year he has had 2 bookings in Jan and one booked for Mar. Nothing in Feb.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
He needs to close the doors but doesn't know how to go about it. Plus he's really depressed.
He has no debt everything is paid off. He does have operating expenses that run about $2,500 a month including rent, advertising, insurance and such. He doesn't have the rent due now. The business is a corporation so nothing should hurt his credit right?
I suggested an auction. He has other vehicles he needs to sell as well . Like a dune buggy and tricked out van.
I have been listing the limos on craigslist and ebay with no luck. I have even been listing them in surrounding cities.
He is going to try autotrader, has anyone had any luck with that?
I am hoping GLP can give him some good suggestions.
