I have a tie up with a tinting business that I promote. Extremely hard work on cars, not so difficult on flat glass, which also makes bigger bucks, however it is harder to sell to.

We always take the drop glasses out and in some cases even the back bonded windows.

One of the biggest problem with selling to Joe Public is the amount of no shows, that and people asking for quotes on cars they do not yet own. Also of course explaining to everybody and his dog that you cannot put anything on glass in front of the B pillar without making it illegal, the amount of my mate got his done and he says it is OK.

For the next 2 weeks starting yesterday all the calls from the tinting business are directed to my phone, you would not believe how many numpties you get on the phone with this business.

Customer, Can you give me a price to tint me car mate.
me, what sort of car is it.
Customer, I do not know yet I have not decided.
Me, Hmmm!

Customer, I need my car tinted this evening.
Me, I am sorry we do not open at night, however we can do it during the day.
Customer, that is no good you are too expensive.
Me, I have not given you a price yet.

Customer, I want all my windows tinted.
Me, it is illegal to put anything in front of the B pillar.
Customer, my mate had his done and he says it is legal.
Me, well why not get your mate to do it.

Customer, I would like my shop front tinted.
Me, certainly sir we can do it later this month.
Customer, that would be fine you did another shop for me so no need to come and quote, just do the job and bill me.
Me, result, obviously only in my head, I hope.

All that and more on the first day.
