Limos Save Time and Money

Psst—wanna hear a secret? Hiring the shuttle services of a reliable limo company to take you to or from the airport to Madison is probably one of the best things you can do for your business trip. As an added bonus, it probably costs less than you think. Well you may be surprised to learn that when you take certain factors into account, limo service is very affordable. If you think about value not only in terms of money but also in terms of your time and convenience,Madison limos can save you money in ways you didn’t even realize. Here are three key reasons that shuttle service from a reputable limo company is an affordable (and crucial) resource for the traveling executive:

1.) Time is money

When you’re in business, your time is money. While you may think that you’re saving cash by just hailing a cab to pick you up, what if you run into traffic and you’re late for your business meeting? The few dollars that you save with taking a cab could potentially cost your company thousands of dollars because you didn’t make it to your meeting on time and gave the other party a poor impression of you. A chauffeur will be well-schooled in the city’s traffic patterns and know when and where to avoid traffic—would a taxi driver be the same way? Another reason limos are preferable to taxis: taxi drivers charge by the hour. Limo chauffeurs, on the other hand, aim to get you where you need to go as quickly and efficiently as possible. Mass transit can also be subject to delays that would interrupt the flow of your day, but with personalized limo service, delays aren’t even part of the picture.

2.) Parking is expensive

You may think it would be cheaper to drive your car to the airport and leave it in the lot until your return, but parking at General Mitchell Airport is $12 a day, meaning that costs can really add up. Factor in the cost of gas and the time spent on finding a space and walking the sometimes lengthy distance from the car to the airport, and a limo might actually cost the same as driving your vehicle to the airport—but without the inconveniences.

3.) They allow you to get your work done

A smooth limo ride with Wi-Fi access will allow you to get work done during the commute—something which probably couldn’t happen if you were to take a cab. When you purchase limo services, you’re not only buying reliability but also a comfortable experience that will allow you to focus on whatever work you need to do or collect your thoughts before a big meeting. How does this translate to cost? Think about the worth of your time versus the worth of your money. Maybe the cab in point #1 saves you some cash, but is the money you save worth it if you can’t get any work done? Knocking out ninety minutes of work during the commute could be the difference between relaxing at the end of the day or pounding several cups of coffee to keep from falling asleep as you look over your company’s reports at 11:30 p.m. So if you ever find yourself asking, “Can I afford an airport shuttle?” then it’s worth it to also ask yourself, “Can I afford to be late to my meeting? Can I afford to spend a disproportionate amount of money on letting my car sit in a lot for 72 hours? Can I afford to lose time that could I have spent doing work?”

They’re important questions to ponder.
