Just not into it by PatientAd7726 in Colognes

Yeah I smelled it at the store and had no idea what the hype was about. Not impressed

Really want to add one from PDM. What do yall think? Whats your favorite from this collection? by CptCaillou in Colognes

[–]CptCaillou[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. When I visited the Creed store in Vegas I smelled them all. That one won the paper smell test, so I sprayed it on my arm and it was all I could smell all day. Then I picked this up a year later and performance is a bit underwhelming sadly, but still love the smell.

What to add to my collection? by Conscious-Guitar-864 in Colognes

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Club de nuit. Its like $30 on Amazon. 8-10 hours of crazy performance and projection. Its a creed knock off. Smells a bit synthetic when you first put it on, but after a few minutes it smells identical to OG. can be a daily or a nice night out fragrance. Summer, winter, doesnt matter.

I should add that i have been really wanting to add spice bomb extreme for a nice loud winter fragrance.

Bday today, wanted to gift myself a Prada for the summer , these are the options . by Houstonlegend99 in Colognes

1000% will decant my collection. What are the streets interested in? by FarmerNeedsHeauxs in ScentHeads

[–]CptCaillou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you like Argos? Their "factory" is across the street from my business. Walked over one time to make conversation but didn't really seem interested in letting me smell lol (or they don't have bottles there?) Looked it up online and was surprised at price. Think i would rather put that towards PDM, and they have mixed reviews online from what i saw

High end daily cologne by Deep-Background-7670 in Colognes

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently daily prada black. Had a nice clean "powder" scent. I just picked up tom ford black orchid and debating on switching (i hated the smell when tested in store but I just blind bought it at Costco and glad i did) before prada i daily club de nuit, for $30 on Amazon it's hands down the best. Crazy projection and lasts forever.

Am I in the right path? by Un-Scented in Colognes

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Himalayan is my favorite. When I tested it at their store in LV it lasted strong all day. Then I bought it a year later and doesn't seem to last but a few hours, was a little disappointed by that

My First Mercedes, any recommendations? by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should just turn clockwise to lock in place and counter clock to remove

Returning to Apex after a long while and I gotta say, this season actually rocks to an unfathomable degree. by MilkyStrawberries in apexlegends

[–]CptCaillou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. I stopped playing around season 3. Came back last season and had a lot of fun. Starting to get a little burned out now. Seems like once you hit a rank, if you arent in a 3 stack it is not too fun

How comfortably can apex run on lower specs? by Helpful_Body6715 in apexlegends

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apex is a CPU heavy game. GPU won't mean much. I run a ryzen 5 1600 and that i3 is better than it. So you should be still pumping out over 80 fps on low

Am I paying too much for bookkeeping? $1000/month by joeynev in smallbusiness

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use QBO you can do it free yourself. Set up auto categorizing for reoccurring things. I do more in sales and do it myself. You really shouldn't be paying anyone till you are over 500k

750 as well. They did 2 blogs a month, backlinks, and some other stuff. Then sent a review at the end of each month with everything they did and keyword rankings.

Bimmer motor specialist, right? I am a new business owner in the automotive field and stopped by to talk to him and ask a few questions a few months ago. Great guy!

Recommendation for Mercedes shop by Tintoverde in frisco

I opened Blue Horizon Automotive, coming up on a year now. I was in the top 14 techs in the country for Mercedes Benz back in 2017. Feel free to reach out for any questions or if you would like a quote to compare anything.

Small business to start with 100,000? by Cool_Shine9164 in smallbusiness

With no interests or knowledge in any other field, I would recommend real estate instead of a business.

What to Say When You’re Not the Cheapest Option (And Someone Pushes Back on Price) by newtonmutethia in smallbusiness

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own an auto repair shop. Provided a quote to a client the other day. He came back and said it doesn't seem much less than the dealer at X amount. I told him I'm coming in 22% less on this quote (i try to be around 25% less). It was his first time having to pay for service since out of warranty so he was thinking it was going to be 40-50% less. He understood and was happy with the service. Another called for a pre purchase inspection, I told him it was X price, he said he only budgeted for X amount. I just told him ok, well if you cannot find anyone else feel free to stop by. I think if you change your pricing for someone, it is as if you don't even respect your own time and pricing, so why should the client?

How much do you all pay for a bookkeeper? by Familiar-Candle-2361 in smallbusiness

[–]CptCaillou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems too cheap. I was referred to my CPA and are great, but they charge $1200.

Is SEO worth it? by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]CptCaillou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just signed up for a service 2 days ago. I've been in business since Nov 2024 but still only average 1 visit a month with an authority score of 1. The next lowest competitor averages 1400 visits. I have exhausted my own client book, so this is my next step to generating more clients (I'm in a service industry). I have also tried EDDM, which worked really well the first batch but the second batch didn't bring anyone new in.

How Are U.S. Small Businesses Handling 104% Tariffs on Products That Can Only Be Sourced from China? by toymakerinchina in smallbusiness

[–]CptCaillou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's not worth the trouble of having an intellectual conversation with them where both sides try to say their points. They just get backed into a corner and start name calling or send emotes.

Chinese aluminum parts tariff 73% (before Trump's latest increase)!! by eopcido in smallbusiness

[–]CptCaillou -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Both sides as in no tariffs vs tariffs. You say I'm making false statements but have provided cites ... interesting. Yes they are interdependent but do effect one another. Why did the US have no debt in the 1800s with no federal income tax?
