You go to work to get paid, but why not get paid as you go to work? It's as simple as driving your own car, to your same job, but with one catch, you'll have an advertisement all over your car!

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Your Car
  • This Article
  1. Step 1

    Read the Time Magazine article (referenced below) to understand what a "car wrap" is and to determine if this is something that you would be willing and able to do.

  2. Step 2

    Once you have decided that you would like to pursue having your car "wrapped" in an ad, you need to register with a legitimate car wrap service. There are several companies referenced in the magazine article.(See link below)

  3. Step 3

    When choosing a company to go through, be sure to investigate them and to be certain they are legitimate. You should not have to pay any money to sign up for a car wrap program.

  4. Step 4

    Be prepared to give the car wrap company certain information, which can include your personal address, your work address, your vehicle make, model, year and color, and your annual mileage.

on 9/30/2009 If you feel uncomfortable having your car wrapped, you should ask if the client would consider a magnetic sign. Those are quite popular, as well. Generally around 24" x 20", they usually are applied to the front doors (both the driver's and passenger's side); sometimes the hatchback as well. They peel off easily, yet still give you the chance to promote someone else's (or your own) business.

Nice tip.
