@intdud What makes you think he's a DIYer? He asked if the sweeps need to come off, not some BS about "choosing the right film" or "manufacturer's guidelines for your specific vehicle".

Sweet ride. -
Bad day to be self employed
TintDude replied to Damien's topic in Window Tinting - General Discussion
They seem to be engineered for quick assembly at the cost of being serviceable. Plus the whole planned obsolescence thing. -

Over the years there have been similar posts and they have all been Fords. I had one in a mustang come off in my hand just adjusting it. -

Just realized that guy you quoted was a spammer. He had a link in the text to his site. I deleted his post, so your reply might look strange.

The share to the partner for leads
TintDude replied to Basil's topic in Window Tinting - General Discussion
Each side will eventually feel like they aren't getting their fair share. I'm lazy so I had chatgpt help me with this: There are several reasons why individuals or businesses might choose to avoid entering into partnerships. While partnerships can have their benefits, they also come with potential drawbacks and challenges that might make them less appealing in certain situations. Here are some reasons to consider: Shared Decision-Making: Partnerships involve joint decision-making, which can lead to conflicts and disagreements if partners have different visions, priorities, or ideas for the business. This shared decision-making process might slow down the decision-making process or result in compromises that don't align with your goals. Liability and Risk: In a general partnership, partners are jointly and severally liable for the debts and obligations of the partnership. This means that if the partnership faces financial difficulties or legal issues, each partner can be held personally liable for the entire debt, not just their proportionate share. Financial Disputes: Disagreements over financial matters, such as profit distribution, capital contributions, or investment decisions, can strain relationships and lead to conflicts between partners. Exit Challenges: Exiting a partnership can be complex and may require legal processes, especially if there's no clear exit strategy outlined in the partnership agreement. Selling your stake or transferring ownership might involve hurdles that are not present in other business structures. Differing Work Ethics and Contributions: Partners might have varying work ethics, commitment levels, and contributions to the business. If one partner feels that another partner is not carrying their fair share of the workload, it can lead to resentment and inequitable distributions of responsibility. Loss of Autonomy: In partnerships, decisions often require consensus among partners. This can limit your ability to make quick decisions or implement changes without the approval of other partners. Sharing Profits: While partnerships offer the advantage of shared resources and expertise, they also involve sharing profits with partners. If your business is highly successful, you'll need to divide the profits among all partners, potentially reducing your individual financial gains. Unforeseen Changes: Life events such as retirement, disability, or the desire to pursue other opportunities can impact the partnership's stability. If a partner leaves unexpectedly, it can disrupt the business and require immediate adjustments. Trust and Compatibility: Partnerships rely heavily on trust, open communication, and compatible working styles. If partners have conflicting values or differing approaches to business operations, it can lead to friction and hinder the partnership's success. Complex Legal and Financial Structures: Partnerships often require legal agreements that outline the rights, responsibilities, and terms of the partnership. These agreements can be complex and costly to create, and they may need legal assistance to ensure all necessary aspects are covered. -

In my experience, even in the best of circumstance, these kinds of partnerships always end in tears. -

OH and what the heck is that a space heater? Mind sharing the model etc? Is that the only one you've tried it with etc? Sorry for all the questions. -

I'm also curious about longevity, if there is a difference between being stretched and shrunk? Maybe @Tintguy1980 can chime in. Also, have you had any ghosting issues with ceramics that you would not have otherwise? Thanks for sharing! -

That is very interesting! How long have you been doing that and does it work well in most situations? Do you ever burn the film? -
"Nextdoor" app marketing
TintDude replied to watchdaride's topic in Window Tinting - General Discussion
The wife uses it, not for marketing though, just to keep up on the scuttlebutt. Says she sees a lot of businesses there. She says you better be good though because of the rating system and whatnot. -

Looking for a dealer

Our shop did something similar back in the day. It was kind of a PITA and results were mixed. Maybe they have gotten better. -

In my personal experience, I would avoid franchises like windshield repair. There is a reason those businesses are franchises, it's the only way to make them profitable, like a pyramid scheme. -

I think people get used to being deceived. Every day in subtle ways that we get used to. Like prices ending in 99 cents, or the price of gas ending in 9/10ths of a cent.
