Review

"Just half way through the book I have come up with so many ideas. Thank You So Much!" --Darrin R Scott, November 9, 2010

My Husband received Wheels of Gold last week and has had his nose in it ever since. Being that he is disabled, I had my doubts to just how far this idea of starting a limousine business would go. I am extremely excited to report that Wheels of Gold has given my husband hope for a new start to his life. --Kathy Powers, October 2011

Goldmine of Information for anyone starting a new business. January 2, 2005

By Charles Roberts

Starting my new business I am always pleased to receive postive feedback. When I purchased Wheels of Gold I was skeptical as to how much help this book could be since my company is based in the UK. I was also quite well advanced with planning my new limousine business and was concerned that this might be beginner reading for the novice operator.

However, once I received Wheels of Gold and discovered a goldmine of information which completely blew me away. It became appartant how little I actually new about this highly lucrative business. Bill Goerl shares all his secrets and how you can really make a generous profit operating a successful limousine business.

Being that I am in the UK, some sections of the book regarding lisencing and insurance didn't apply, but the information on marketing, customer care, and the art of vehicle dispatching is universal and priceless.

Wheels of Gold is Must reading for anyone in the business!

Comprehensive and Engaging... Excellent How To Book ! January 12, 2004

By Ray Martin

This book will save you time, energy, and frustration. If someone had shared these tips with me when I started my company 13 years ago, I could have shaved many years off my learning curve. Anyone in the limousine industry or considering starting their own business should read this book.
