Cheap Car Window Tinting, Tampa Bay?

Shmucks With Trucks

 

Any real business prefers to sell value. 

 

I believe I’ve read that somewhere.

A successful business keeps their eye on the bottom line as well as the top line!
 

Obviously consumers come in all stripes and sizes and they each have their own budget constraints.

What’s the missing link?

Who caters to the person who wants the lowest price and doesn’t care what type of crap they use??

This may come as a surprise to some of you but there really is a huge difference in quality between various window films. 


I won’t get up on my soap box and try to convince the masses that they should appreciate fine quality films like Stratos and Pinnacle ceramic while happily spending an additional cost. 

 

That audience already appreciates that their car should have the very best quality solutions.

No preaching here!!

SO-

If you just want the cheapest window tinting- -don’t you think that just maybe I might know where to get it?? 

Good guess!
 
So. .
 

If you have a quote for some no name window tinting from that guy who lives down the block or hangs out in the back of a car wash or SIGN SHOP call us at 813-949-3456 and let me see if we can beat it?

We love to put these guys out of business.

 
You can assist us in achieving our goals while helping yourself to a better price.
 


No you won’t be getting NFRC Certified Films (those private label films don’t spend much money on trying to prove that their film will last or do whatever they claim is on the sample (if you even have a sample – -you see sample cards cost $$)

I like Korea as much as the next guy and Mumbai is awfully nice this time of year. .

So go to your Craig’s List or call the number on that poster nailed to a tree.

Then call Advanced Film Solutions

Tampa Crazy For Window Tinting

We know how crazy it is “out there.”

amazed

A client came in the other day asking me if we had a tint that would give her complete privacy in her car. 

She whispered that unknown people were following her wherever she went. 

Carefully looking over her shoulder to ensure no one was listening, she explained that she dresses down in public (clearly she attained her goal!) simply to hide from the unknown stalkers.

Now after  years of dealing directly with Joe Public rather than corporate types; I have to agree with many of my associates in this business that some customers are nuts!

The following did not happen to me but rather to another window film company; but it’s a wonderful story.

My friend did an estimate at a clients’ home meeting with an older gentleman. 

 

should

The client was completely impressed  and signed up for an installation on the spot.


Later that week his installation crew showed up at the home and proceeded to tint all the windows in the home. 

The homeowner watched intently pointing out any areas of concern throughout the process.

At about the moment the crew finished the homeowners wife came home.

She went directly to the installers and asked them who they were and what the *&^% they were doing in her home?


They explained that they had just completed the job.

“What!!” she shouted.


“We don’t need window film. 

Why would you come to my house to do this??” she screamed.

They looked around and pointed to her husband who was now quietly sitting on the couch looking out the rear windows facing the backyard.

“Go ask your husband” the lead installer responded, he’s the person that signed the order.

He let us in and he watched us the last four plus hours. Plus he signed the work order”. . . furiously pointing at the bottom of the paperwork.


The wife explained that her husband was demented. 

 

Certifiably insane.

 

“He must have been off his Meds!”
 
 
 

He’s mentally incompetent so he could not make a decision.”

She chased the installers out of the house while her husband continued to sit silently rocking back and forth just  staring out the window.

The phone calls, the legal action, the court dates,  the aggravation.
 

Literally crazy for window tinting.

 
You have to love this business.

I’m Burn’in For You – Not With Our Film! LLumar Car Tinting

So the other day an average looking middle-aged fellow comes into our shop and asks us if we can install a ceramic film on his new Infinity?

 1425772_511562845605954_710052786_n
 

Now that was an easy question to answer since we carry the FormulaOne Pinnacle Ceramic Films and if you twist my arm the Huper Optik Ceramic.

So YES we can!

To make the waiting time go faster I noted that he was sporting a NY Yankee baseball cap.

Given their recent “failures” I figured it might be topical subject?

I asked if he was from NY?  Since there are not that many Yankee fans who live outside the NY area (as you know!)

He grew up on Long island and travels a lot since he’s a musician.

Now most musicians I have ever met sing in the lobby bar at hotels so I ask him where he sings?

GLARE

He says he has a group called Blue Oyster Cult and that he’s the lead singer!

Blue Oyster Cult????

The Blue Oyster Cult????

Being the dummy I obviously am, I ask him what their big hit was? (I remember the name of the group – but can’t recollect the big hit??)

He simply smiles and says “maybe you remember the hit “Don’t Fear the Reaper?”

That sounded familiar but I still can’t remember the tune. So he pauses, takes a breath and starts singing the song.

Now I remember!!

Our first and possibly our last “star” in our shop.

So here’s a nod to Blue Oyster Cult and Huper Optik Window Film!
