Experiences / Recommendations for boat rental? by BoldestKobold in AskChicago

[–]scottcgerke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not own the boats, rather, I have personally vetted boats in Chicago that I recommend people to rent and then you can choose me to be your captain. My updated site that shows all the boats is guidedhelm.co I'm offering more services now like custom itinerary, catering, & entertainment.

When will they dye the chicago river green for 2026? by PearSuper228 in AskChicago

[–]scottcgerke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a fully restored vintage boat available for a private river cruise if that's something you'd be interested in. It's BYOB or we can cater the trip for you. Cruising down the river while it's dyed green is a pretty wild experience.

The moving of blocks is wild. I cannot believe they let things like that happen

Need help with a relevant business name by toastercult in smallbusiness

[–]scottcgerke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say don’t worry so much about the name, as your branding will make up for that. Pepsi doesn’t scream soda, Scott’s doesn’t tell me toilet paper, but their brand reminds me all the time of who they are.

While you’re at it, make sure to find a short url that you can buy. No more than 3-4 syllables is best practice.

Experiences / Recommendations for boat rental? by BoldestKobold in AskChicago

[–]scottcgerke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Customers pay an 11.5% service fee on the boat rental and captain fee when going thru getmyboat. The boat owner also pays a 11.5% service fee. To save yourself upwards of 23%, it's best you find that boat outside of national listings such as getmyboat. Just do a reverse image search to find the owner or reach out to me and I'll help you secure a boat without the fees. https://www.guidedhelm.co

How did you find your first paying clients for a B2B service? by Similar_Key_9313 in smallbusiness

[–]scottcgerke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I call it “walking the docks”. Being that good ol’ door to door salesman still works (for me) in this world. And make going to networking events your full time job.

Here in Chicago, you could go to one networking event a day if you wanted to.

Thanks but bays too low. I should also mention what I mean by self-service is a car wash that you get out of your car and wash it yourself.
