I was going to call this post “A funny thing happened on my way to the Search Engine Results…” and then start it with… I got hijacked. It was one of them long-tailed searches. They sure are sneaky. But, I got hijacked with a different idea, sooo…
I got hijacked. It was one of them long-tailed searches. They sure are sneaky.
This one was called “cool garage toys”. Now, if you take a look at my tags, you’ll see that I have around 30 posts that mention garages. I have over 100 that involve real estate. One might think that I would get some search engine lovin’ for real estate… but, nope. It’s all about garages.
Seriously, my top six search terms are all garages. Now, I will say that there is one post I have here that has surpassed all others in contacts… my phone rings twice a week over it, and it is real estate related, but nobody that calls has the $20M to actually do it, and they just want me to tell all of my secrets… but, for the most part, I think that most of my Googling readers are hitting me looking for the grooviest and coolest garage stuff.
Being a tech savvy guy (think Steve Martin’s “wild and craaazy guys” line), as well as a garage geek and swift thinking marketer, I have a solution. I want to see YOUR garage. That’s right… YOUR garage.
So, being the swifty that I am, after a mere 4 1/2 months, I have figure out that I need to showcase some cool garages. Now, of course this blog isn’t the best platform for it, but I do have a real estate and garage website (duh!) that would be perfect.
No charge. No geographical restrictions. No pressure. I’d just like to see some cool garages. I might even be able to put you on the front lines of a cool reward I’m looking to announce in a week or two as well.
The only thing I ask is that they look better than the sad sack I have pictures of here. This is a truly terrible garage. It is clogged with crap, and needs a much better system for storage. I just haven’t had the time of money to finish the projects that is clogging it up… Talk to my wife. As soon as she let’s me, I will clean it up and turn it into the 26’x24′ one car garage it always wanted to be… with attached tool room.
So, comment and send me an email. I’ll gladly feature YOUR garage on my website. For the whole world to see. Maybe my wife will stop buying purses long enough for me to do something with my own garage.
Oh yeah… If you need a bigger garage, let me know. I’m in Gwinnett County, GA and also work South Hall and South Forsyth. Furthermore, I have agents all over the country that would love to get a “car people” referral.
Tomorrow is Halloween. Don’t drive. Seriously, the scariest thing in Atlanta tomorrow will be the traffic.
You heard it. At the end of the week, I’ll be off to the wilds to do a little camping. While it isn’t as much of an outdoor experience as some, it is a nice place to get away. That also means that I won’t have new posts up Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
In the last post, I highlighted a few really cool items. Now, I’m going to move the other way and look at some cheap (but still cool) stuff. Of course, I think that the most links I’ve come across have been regarding tool storage. And, tool storage is a biggie. Personally, I have two bottom boxes (rollers). One is a Craftsman box that I’ve had for years, and the other is a US General (Harbor Freight) box. The Craftsman is a 26″ wide box. It has roller bearings and such. The current cost of the box is 
Ultimate. There is a loaded word. For me, it brings to mind a 3,000 square foot garage with high performance floor coatings, a pair of lifts, a dedicated welding bay, loads of tool storage, a kicking HVAC system, and compressed air available in each work space. Of course, there would be a trolley system to move heavy junk (I like heavy junk), and workbenches that could handle the weight of Dana 60 axles and engines.
