The hours that you spend in the car probably don’t feel very productive, especially if you have a long commute. Perhaps you get your hands-free headset in place and fire off a few phone calls,but for the most part you’re concentrated on your driving. As more people recognize that working in the car causes accidents, they’re turning away from using their commutes for completing business.

But car time doesn’t have to be downtime. You can use your car itself as a vehicle for getting more work done while all you do is drive to and from the office. The way to do this is to turn your car into an advertising machine. Place magnetic car signs with a witty slogan and your website addess on the side of your car so that anyone passing you sees what you do. Add window decals and get custom license plates so that the people sitting behind you at stop lights can spend those minutes absorbing your message.

When you know that your car’s doing business for you, you’ll be able to relax a little bit more while driving. You can turn on the radio and tune out, allowing commutes to really be a transition between work and home. Just remember to wave and smile at people that you notice are noticing your car’s advertising. This shows great customer service even to people who aren’t yet customers.
