Don’t take our word for it, here is what a few of our customers have said on Google Reviews...
Great company to do business with. We used them for our homecoming group. The driver was professional and very dependable. He went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable and all would have a great experience which they did. Thanks Sam for making this special night special!
Here’s another…
I have used ABBA for corporate transportation on many occasions for my upper management team members coming from all over the world. We are 2+ hour drive from Houston and ABBA Limos has always been professional, punctual and always exceeded expectations of all of our travelers. We have been using ABBA for the past 4 years and never had any sort of issue for any reason…which is why we will continue to use them for many years to come.
So next time you have a group in Houston you need to move from one place to another…
…be sure and call Abba Limousine Service so we can send one of our magic shuttle buses to pick you up and transport you and your group in style and comfort!
If you’ve never hired a shuttle bus to move your group to a new venue…
…you’re kind of asking asking for trouble.
Especially when it comes to corporate events.
Whether you need to move your employees or your customers to a new location, the actual experience of being transported will reflect back on you.
Calling for a bunch of taxi’s may sound easy, but it has it’s drawbacks.
Like not knowing if the driver really is trustworthy.
Take for example the story of this woman who said…
“I took a taxi ride with my friends. As we were getting out, I paid the taxi driver. With a grin, he drove away fast. It turns out my friend had already paid”
Or this one..
“I rode in the cab on the way back to my dorm from the airport. The taxi driver was on the phone and not really paying attention. I paid him and got out of the cab, but he drove away before I could get my luggage out of the trunk”
Or how about this…
“I called a taxi after a night of partying. When it arrived, I realized I had no cash, so I told the driver I’d quickly grab some from an ATM. He made me leave my phone with him as collateral in case I was pulling a prank. He drove off the moment I turned my back”
See what I mean?
Everyone who has ever been in taxi has a story to tell about them.
And the last thing you want is to risk exposing any of your customers to that kind of experience.
When it comes to having a great night out fun with your friends two things are important.
The place you go to.
And how you get there.
Lets talk about places first.
If you want a night that rivals what happened in the movie “The Hangover”, picking the right place can make all the difference.
So going to your regular hangout is a no go.
Instead you have to find someplace really cool.
A place totally different than you’re used to.
Maybe a place like the “Chillout”.
The Chillout is the Middle East’s first ice lounge.
Pretty much everything in that restaurant is sculpted out of ice.
You will sit on either on an ice bench or an ice chair.
Eat at an ice table.
Eat off of an ice plate.
And drink from an ice glass served from a bar made of ice.
The $17 cover charge gets you one drink and the rental of a hooded parka, woolen gloves and insulated shoes.
If the thought of this place is too chilling even on a scorching hot Houston summer day, maybe you’d like Red Sea Star Bar better.
Submerged under 20 feet of water, The Red Sea Star Bar is the world’s very first underwater bar and restaurant.
Every table has two windows.
One on the side and one above.
The views are amazing with your attention getting torn between the sea creatures and colorful coral garden outside…
… and the marine inspired furnishings like the jellyfish stools and anemone lighting fixtures.
And if that’s not strange enough for you and your gang, then how about heading over to the “Skeleton Bar”?
Designed by Hans Rudi Giger who worked as a designer on the Alien movies, the Skeleton Bar in Swtizerland has got to be one of the wierdest designs ever for a bar.
Ok I admit it.
We don’t have anything quite like those bars here in Houston.
How awesome would it be if we did?
Now the thing about Houston is it’s a huge city.
And with a population close to 2.2 million people, you better believe we have some cool places to party.
And when you find a place like that, you want to get there in style.
On February 2010 something simply remarkable happened.
Two women – Aga & Iza – originally from Poland, met by chance in the United States.
Barely knowing each other, these two women made a decision most people would never even consider.
They decided to drop everything, take their entire life savings and travel the world together.
2.5 years, 33 countries and 209 different beds later, they had set foot on all seven continents.
And the whole adventure was captured on their blog.
Through both the written word and the lens of a camera. It the complete Odyssey of two girls (who call themselves the Hot Toddies) that took them…
“From jungle treks to cave exploration; from eating local delicacies to biting live fat larvae; it’s the good, it’s the bad, it’s the scary and unfamiliar, it’s the embarrassing and yet incredibly rewarding side of living our nomadic lives of world domination”
Now this kind of adventure the The Hot Toddies’ experienced may not be something you may ever be able to do.
But.
Inside you lives the Spirit of Adventure.
A Spirit that just wants to bust loose and escape all those job commitments, family responsibilities, and boring life-sucking parts of your life.
To be able to jump out and experience amazing new sights & sounds you never have before.
At least for a little while.
You may not be able to escape for 2.5 years.
Or even a week.
But you COULD escape for a night.
A night where you and your girlfriends all get together and experience some of the craziest, wildest, hottest spots this town has to offer.
A night where one of our Party Buses brings you to any or all of these exotic spots in style.
A night where you can have an adventure that rivals anything that happened to the guys on the movie “The Hangover”.
Imagine…
Getting into a Party Bus with room up to 30 girls.
With a dance pole.
Killer sound system and light show.
Ice cold drinks.
A driver who will take care of everything so that all you and your girlfriends need to do is have fun.
It’s all there waiting for you.
All you have to do is grab it.
So…
…this Saturday night.
Are you going to sit in front of the TV again watching other people live exciting lives?
Or would you rather jump on our party Bus and have a night you’ll talk about for years?
Go on.
Kick that regular life of yours to the curb for a night and go out on an exciting Abba Limousine Party Bus adventure instead!
Can a limousine service help increase the productivity of your employees?
Check it out.
A study funded by Make Their Day, an employee motivation firm, surveyed 1,200 U.S. employees from a broad cross-section of industries.
What they found was…
– 83% of people said recognition for what they did at work was more fulfilling than any rewards or gifts;
– 76% found peer praise very or extremely motivating;
– 88% found praise from managers very or extremely motivating;
– 90% said a “fun work environment” was very or extremely motivating.
The researchers concluded…
“Workers of all ages, especially the rising Millennial population, are motivated by real-time feedback, fun, engaging work environments, and status-based recognition over tangible rewards.”
In other words, people are more motivated by recognition than by money.
And a motivated employee is a much more productive.
They’re a lot happier with significantly less sick time.
And ultimately they earn your company more money.
How you make your employees feel has a direct impact on your bottom line.
And no one knows this better than San Joaquin Gardens, a continuing care retirement community in Fresno, Calif.
Once they started giving out candy bars and $100 bills, employee turnover dropped 6%.
They were surprised at how little it took to increase the morale of their employees.
The company names an Employee of the Month from among staff who have been nominated by residents or residents’ family members. Every nominee earns a candy bar. The one who becomes Employee of the Month is given a prime parking spot for a month and an extra $100. Once a year, the monthly winners vie for the Star of the Year award, which reaps the victor $500 and a limousine ride to a black-tie banquet.
Now that’s a pretty good start.
Here are some other ideas that companies are using…
A “celebrity for the day” contest where the winning employee gets the full celeb treatment, complete with limousine service, paparazzi, and glamour photos.
A Limo Lottery, where the winning employee gets dropped off to work and picked up again by a limo for a week.
These are all great ideas but the point to remember is this.
A limousine is all about grace, beauty and style.
In a world of jeans and yoga pants, grace, style and beauty are a rare occurrence.
And things that are rare tend to be very valuable.
So it is with limousines.
But they are best used to compliment the main prize rather than being the prize itself.
Kind of like the icing on the cake instead of the cake itself.
The main prize should be something of high perceived value.
Like tickets to a sold out rock concert.
Traveling there by limousine just takes the whole experience to an entirely new level.
How?
Because half the fun of the concert will be the journey to the event.
They don’t have to drive their car and fight traffic to get to there.
Or pay for parking.
Or walk 6 blocks away to save on parking fees.
Nope.
Instead they can enjoy a completely stress free ride with cold champagne on ice to the concert.
And a comfortable trip back home without having to deal with the mass exodus of cars and people after it’s over.
In fact, the longer they are stuck in traffic, the more time they get to spend enjoying themselves in the back of the limousine.
You just cannot lose when you make a limousine ride part of whatever main prize your offer.
Even if it’s a trip to Hawaii or Disneyland.
Nobody wants to ask their friends for a ride to the airport.
So a limo ride both to the airport and then back home again ALWAYS makes an impression!
Try it with your employees see for yourself how much they love it.
And if you’re in Texas be sure to call ABBA Limousine Service in Houston cause we know how make your employees feel like royalty.
And all of them getting a lousy return on their advertising.
The reason?
Most small business owners are not marketers.
Sure they know their business inside-out.
But what they don’t know is how to market effectively.
They pretty much do exactly what everyone else in their industry does.
Which means whatever marketing your company does, your competition is probably doing the same thing.
But there is a better way.
A way which none of your competitors are doing.
A way that can get you thousands of dollars worth of radio advertising for almost nothing.
A way which is creative and involves your company, a limo service and the radio stations around your town.
Curious?
Ok, so here’s one idea I learned from a company near Seattle WA.
This particular company offered a service that details automobiles.
They approached every radio station in their city and made them an irresistible offer.
They said that whenever their radio station offered a contest that involved the winner to travel somewhere…
…they would pay for the limo service to bring them there and back again.
So for example if the winner won a trip to Hawaii, this company would pay for a limo service to pick the winner up at their home and bring them to the airport.
They would also get a limo to bring them home after their trip.
Or if they won concert tickets, they would get a limo service to bring them to the concert and then back home again.
Or if they won tickets to an event in another city, this company would pay for the limo service to take them to the airport…
…and arrange for another limo in the other city to pick them up to go to the hotel, the event and then back to the airport.
You get the idea.
The winner would end up feeling special (and not able to stop talking about the limo ride).
The radio station was able to add more value to the prize at no cost to them.
So you can see how this works.
Now imagine if you went to every radio station in your city.
And made them an offer to provide a limo service to every one of their contests.
Would your competition be able to copy you?
Not likely because you would have tied up all the radio stations with your offer already.
Plus.
Here’s the best part.
Radio contests can run for weeks.
Which means your company name will be mentioned pretty much every day the entire time.
Add if you have multiple radio station in your area, then you know there are going to be several contests throughout the year.
Can you see how powerful this strategy is?
Do you see how a little creativity can pay off bigger than any marketing you;ve done in the past?
Now.
Will this technique work with every radio station?
Probably not.
While some stations are more than happy to accept your offer some may not.
It all depends on things like the policy of the radio stations.
But if you have the right contacts or are good at negotiating (maybe you know someone who is?) you still might be able to make it work.
The point is, this is a powerful marketing strategy.
One that can have a bigger ROI than anything you’ve done in the past.
And totally worth the phone call or meeting with the station manager to discuss it with.
It’s already being done with great success.
Now it’s your turn.
Get out there and offer a limo service to all the winners of radio station contests.
The amount of free advertising you get from it will be insane.
And don’t forget to followup with the winners.
The automobile detailing company I talked about earlier offered the winner free detailing on their car.
That made sure the winner talked to everyone on Facebook about their company.
It’s no wonder they’re thriving in an economy where so much of their competition are struggling.
