    I may be on to something !

    I started a new company that i believe has a place in todays fast pace world.Without giving the readers digest version here goes.I need to raise some capital for a add campaign.My company will go to the home or office of a customer to pick-up there car for repair.We have set up a network of approximately 15 repair shops in the Boston area that we will take the car to for repair.We offer free pick-up and return on the repaired car and also make available a free loaner car.My website is ( i guess that will have to wait) if anyone would like to take a peak.Your opinions would be greatly appreciated.thank you in advance

    When you say "started" does that mean you are currently serving customers?

    So, basically your expanding on the Mercedes Benz maintenance deal? They offer the same service. I was actually putting together a small aircraft management program that offered some of the same perks as the Mercedes Benz program, that's where I got the idea.
    Conservative opinions from someone who thinks a little differently than most.

    Yes as far as doing some pick-ups.Most of the shops i interviewed tell me that the customer would usually still have to come pick-up there car when the work is done.There are many shops doing different things but no one is doing the network type business.This allows us to be able to offer many type of car related services
