Public Relations for Taxi Cab Companies
If you own a Taxi Cab or transportation company then you know it is important to keep your vehicles clean, drivers looking good and always be thinking of public relations. Public Relations for transportation or Taxi Cab Companies is not difficult, but you have to remember the costs of fuel these days at over $3.00 per gallon.
You simply cannot give everyone a free ride, you are in business to make money of course and you must concentrate on that. Remember that old saying; Gas, grass or ass, no one rides for free?
Indeed Taxi Cab companies can do many things to promote good will and a positive public relations campaign and plan can strengthen your companys brand name in the market place making your company the company of choice when choosing a cab.
One interesting public relations plan that I designed about 15 years ago makes an interesting case study in innovative type public relations techniques. We put together a city-wide Neighborhood Mobile Watch Program, where all the companies involved were already driving around all day and would report suspicious behavior to the local police department.
The taxi-cab company signed up and made a few newspaper front pages for their participation and it did not cost them anything. In fact all they did was put a couple of magnetic signs on the rear of all their taxi-cabs and captured more than their fair share of community goodwill. Consider all this in 2006.
