looks great, those prices are very good. Do you think it would work better having a section for "Prices", maybe so people see it right away.
Good job, and good luck. hope the buisness is good.

Thats not a bad idea.

It's called "resonant engineering," not "resonant audio."

It's pretty bad when you don't even know what subs you own //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You may pull in some service for the basic installs, it seems like you're conducting things toward that end. The lack of a garage, the lack of MECP certification, the lack of any fiberglass work, and the lack of anything truly custom will tend to drive away those who have spent a considerable amount of money on their systems. Spend the $30, take the MECP test, that should help the confidence of potential customers and bring in more business.

I'm pretty sure most people would consider some of our projects truly custom.

As for bigger projects, we don't really want to bring in any big fish right now since we don't really have the time.

the lack of any fiberglass work

wtf are you talking about??

the F-150 and 318 both use fiberglass enclosures?? Did you even look at the site?

Like I said, this is catering to a college population, so I'm not expecting any huge custom work, just basic stuff at dirt cheap prices for college kids looking to save some extra bucks. I think that + a gallery of our work will outdo the fact that we aren't MECP certified (although I might go take teh test anyway). Besides, how many people even know what MECP is?

Hah my mistake. The only two installs I didn't look at. Regardless, you're catering to a certain demographic, as I said. If you plan on venturing outside of that demographic you'll need to do several things in order to be taken seriously.

Don't worry about it

I do definitely realize that a shop and isurance and MECP certification would increase our odds of landing larger jobs, and if we do become popular that might be the next road we take, but for right now we're fine.

P.S. We've already done work for a couple customers and have 3-4 more tentative future jobs!

Good luck to you. I did something similar a while back, except for things like head unit and speaker installs I simply requested beer. And then I became an alcoholic and started hitting customers, then they seemed to disappear.
