“How
to Choose a Limousine Service”
by:
Lawrence Carmon
Your event is can be
one of the most memorable days of your life; but there are so many
things that can go wrong to ruin that memory.
Let’s face it,
choosing a good limousine service is one of the major keys to making
your event successful. Yet for most, choosing a limo service is an
afterthought.
Choose the right
limousine company and your event goes off without a hitch. Choose the
wrong one and the all your fun can turn into a nightmare.
Sure, you can drive
yourself and save a few bucks, but that can be a hassle. You and your
party have to cram into a car – which isn’t always easy if you are
dressed in a tux or evening gown. Wouldn’t you agree that it’s better
to arrive in style in your own chauffeured limousine? You’ll be the
envy of all those that didn’t get one.
So your best bet is
to show up in a limo. But, there are big problems with that too. The
sad truth is that there are people who buy a limo and drive around on
the weekend for some spare cash. This is like you buying a stethoscope
and claiming to be a doctor. Do you really want a hobbyist in charge of
the most memorable event of your life?
My company,
Larry’s Limos,
has been in business since 1996, serving clients, just like you and
making their events unforgettable and hassle free. And I’ll guarantee
my service, but first…
Here are 6 Things You Must Know Before
Booking a Limousine Service:
-
Isn’t one
limousine service as good as another?
No,
absolutely not! This is one of the biggest misconceptions. First ask
yourself, what are you looking for? If the company only does ~funeral
service~ and you need a limo for your wedding, then that company
wouldn’t be the best to choose because they wouldn’t fully understand
your needs for the wedding. You want a company that is experienced in
the type of driving you are looking for.
-
The limousine
service that offers the lowest price is the one you should hire.
This may or may not
be true. The prices that are offered to you might not be for the
services you want. Just because one company charges $60 an hour and
another charges $90, that does not mean that you save thirty dollars by
going with the cheaper of the two. As shocking as it may seem, there
are guys that have one limo, that drive on the weekends to earn some
spare cash. Many of these “fly-by-night” operators charge very low
prices to get jobs, but also deliver sub-par service simply because
they don’t have the experience or dedication that an established company
can offer you. Often times, you’ll get what you paid for. It is always
better to pay a little more and be completely satisfied instead of
paying less and being disappointed.
3.
Is the company that
you are considering, insured and licensed?
This is vitally
important. You must make sure that the company you are dealing with is
insured. Many smaller companies look at insurance as a costly annoyance
rather that a concern for their client, and will
forgo getting
insurance. If they can’t produce proof that they are insured, they most
likely aren’t and should be avoided like the plaque. Another
consideration is if their limousines are licensed. A reputable company
should also be able to provide proof of that as well.
4.
Can the company
provide you with testimonials and ample proof that they deliver quality
service?
Testimonials are of
the utmost importance. Although what the limousine operators tells you
is likely to be true, ask for testimonials. When you can see what other
people had to say, it reinforces the company’s quality service. If they
don’t have testimonials, it is an indication that they aren’t very good,
don’t care, or only drive part-time for extra money.
5.
Ask for references!
Testimonials are
vitally important for making an informed decision. However, there are
some unethical companies that will make up testimonials. The limousine
operator should willingly offer references that you can ask questions
and hear “in their words” what they though of the limousines service.
6.
Does the limousine
service guarantee your satisfaction”
The vast majority of
limousine companies don’t offer any type of a guarantee. This is their
way to deliver marginal service, and weasel out of taking any
responsibility. Refuse to hire any company that doesn’t have and
extremely liberal satisfaction guarantee. When you find a company that
guarantees their services, you know that you are dealing with a
reputable, high quality operation. A limousine service that has a
guarantee shows that they are completely convinced of the high quality
of their service.
By
getting the answers to these questions, and becoming informed on how to
choose the limousine service that’s right for you, you can make an
informed intelligent decision. You’ll also be able to rest assured that
you have found a quality limousine service, at a fair price per value.
In summary, if you are only concerned with getting the cheapest
price, there are plenty of options available to you. On the other hand,
