subject: Car Service: Spicing Up Three Unusual Occasions [print this page] If you're planning to hire a car service or limousine, chances are you're planning one of three events. You're planning a wedding, a bachelor/bachelorette party, or you're going to prom. These are far and away the most popular times to rent a limousine and they are the bread and butter of anyone in the industry. Obviously, celebrities ride in these luxurious automobiles from time to time, but that is hardly going to be something on the average person's radar. But you don't have to wait for your next wedding to experience the luxury of having someone drive you in style. Here are three somewhat unusual occasions that one of these vehicles can spice up.
Birthday
You may have seen the sweet sixteen celebrations on TV, where rich parents splurge ridiculously on their spoiled daughters. While it may not be necessarily to buy your daughter a horse and a Mercedes when she turns sixteen, you don't have to be a member of the 1% to hire a car service. A limousine has many benefits from a practical standpoint. You can load several of your friends into the vehicle and save money and time, rather than having everyone drive to the venue on their own. Teenagers are always especially enamored by this veneer of wealth, which just adds to the atmosphere.
Concerts
Remember the last time you went to a big concert in the city? How frustrating was it to find parking? Forget that; how frustrating was it to leave the parking area after the concert was finished. It is typical to see a mass exodus of attendees once they start getting the idea that the concert may soon be over. Did everyone in the place suddenly get bored with the music they paid to see? Of course not. They are leaving so they don't get caught in an irritating, two hour traffic jam. Hiring a car service means you won't have to fight to get out of the parking garage. You can stay until the last note is sung.
Impressing Clients
If you're in charge of a business, everything you do should be in service to your clients. If you are looking to woo someone away from your competition or simply thank them for using your services, consider taking them out to dinner. But don't pick them up in your family sedan. Hiring a car service shows a commitment to quality and your client will (at least subconsciously) associate you with someone who holds them in high regard.
