Top 7 Tips for Aircraft Cleaning Companies

Post on Aug 24th 2008

If you own an aircraft cleaning and detailing company perhaps you have had trouble getting new clientele. However getting clientele for aircraft detailing company is not as difficult as you might think. There are simple things you can do to increase the number of people who learn about your service.

One thing you can do is put a phone number on top of your vehicle as people in the traffic pattern will see there's a phone number on it. They may not be able to read it while their flying but they will laugh and when they down jot down the same number on the door of at your vehicle.

You should always put your business cards on the aircraft bulletin boards. It makes sense to work and co-market with other aviation businesses at the airport who have long existing clientele and give them a percentage if they find you new business.

I recommend using direct-mail and finding lists of pilots and aircraft owners addresses. When cleaning and detailing aircraft it makes sense to not leave anything on the flight line and work out of the work vehicle but do not put anything all the ground to make it look messy, as it also might be blown away by prop wash or jet exhaust.

You should never park your work vehicle underneath the wing of an airplane or even drive underneath the wing of airplane. You should know the aircraft security guard by name and offer to wash the airport security vehicle for free. Please consider all these steps in 2006.
