Can you build a booth that is larger or smaller than the three standard sizes?

Your question is a great one, and I’d love to be involved in any new and fresh ideas in and outside of the auto industry as far as building bigger or smaller studios.

Your question is, “Jay, I’ve seen your spec. You have a 24, a 26, a 28. I heard you built a 30, 35,…” and you’re 100% correct. I’ve even built 31’s. I’ve built them smaller–24, 17–for industries out of the car business. Motorcycle, for instance.

To answer your question, absolutely. I would love to be involved in the next latest and greatest ideas as far as photo studios, whether it be in or out of the auto industry.

 

Will it cost more money if I have a custom size?

Okay, you’ve seen our specs. You’ve done your research. You heard we make three sizes, standard 24, 26, 28. We’ve built them bigger, and we’ve built them smaller. We’ve made them ten feet and even shorter, but your question is, “Does it cost more if I have to customize the studio for you?”

No. Let me visit your space. If you haven’t heard, I visit everyone’s space without obligation. In six years, I’ve never asked for a check. Let me make some measurements at your space. Let me make some recommendations, and let’s see what we have to do. The

To answer your question, we get there. If we need to make it shorter, or a little bigger, or smaller to fit your space, that’s no cost to you.

 

It will be next to the vehicle car wash. Will it get ruined buy moisture?

360Booth® would have 10,000 studios installed if there wasn’t an issue for space. We do need a minimum of 30 feet of length and two feet larger than the width of the studio, and the question is, “If I put my studio close to my detail bay, one, can you, and will it get hurt?”

No, it will not, and yes, you can put it close to your detail bay. The walls are plastic. The steel is powder coated. The cloth top is really the only issue. You don’t want a lot of moisture to get near it.

I’m going to do a little close up, pour some water on the studio and show you that it’s no issue.

All right, here I am. I am going to use my demonstration with water again. As you can see, the back of the studio is all steel, powder-coated, and the walls are plastic. I’m going to pour some water on it, and you can clearly see that nothing’s happening. It’s very durable.

Yes, you can put your wash bay next to the studio. I would be cautious to keep it off the cloth top so we don’t have any stains.

 

Can you make a shorter booth because my room isn’t high enough?

This question is not really common, but can you make your space shorter because, Jay, honestly, I don’t have the 11 minimum feet you’re asking for.

Absolutely. There is so far we’ll go down, I think the shortest studio we’ve made is eight feet. After that, I have way too much integrity to sell you something that just won’t fit. We’ve moved the studios, so in the future–you can never predict the future–if you move your studio and you have the high ceilings, the last thing I want to do is be involved with you taking this seven-foot-tall booth to a large space. So, if you do not have the minimum 11 feet, we absolutely cut out of the top of the studio.

If you haven’t heard, I visit everyone’s location prior to taking anyone’s money. That’s at zero obligation, no money for travel, nothing. It’s on my dime. I want to make sure you’re fully engaged in the process; you fully understand what we’re doing; the concept of the studio; the five-year warranty, and more importantly, I bring lasers to measure your space, to see what has to be done on the studio space we select.

Give me a shot. I won’t let you down.

 

How much room do I need to install 360Booth® at my dealership?

How much space do you really need for a 360Booth®? It’s a great question, the most asked question. Quite honestly, if space wasn’t an issue, we’d have 10,000 installed by now, but, to answer your question:

Simply fill out the “More Information” form or email to this video, and I’ll send you a schematic with three different-sized studios. Remember, 24, 26, 28–we’ll make them bigger or smaller at no extra price to you. We’ll make them shorter but no taller than ten feet.

But to answer your question “how much space,” I need a minimum of 30 feet as the vehicle drives in. I need your photographer to stand back so you make sure your car’s photos aren't in a fishbowl. There is nothing worse than looking at those distorted, ugly photos. Thirty feet is the minimum of the length. The width needs to be two feet larger than the studio. Honestly, sometimes we have them six inches from the wall.

Remember, don’t waste your time thinking about it. If you’re serious, give me a call at no obligation and no cost to you. I fly in and totally evaluate your space. We really talk about process–that’s number one–but for the space, I bring floor leveling lasers. That’s critical. I bring a laser for distance. I mark the spot, so if you choose to move forward after the fact, my installer knows exactly where to put it in.

So, how much space do you need? Minimum 30 feet of length, two feet larger than the size of the studio you pick. Contact us and I’ll send you schematics.
 

 

Why do I install 360Booth® inside?

Can 360Booth® be installed outdoors, and why not?

Honestly, nothing will happen to it. A gust of wind will push it off its track. The cloth top will get stained, but the number one reason you don’t want to go outside is that you need to increase your sales.

That’s why you’re here. You’re trying to increase your sales. You want to go indoors so you can shoot 24/7. If you don’t have the stomach to put in the process, to make sure all your cars are online 24/7, and shoot day or night indoors, putting it outside just makes the process harder.

So, no. 360Booth® does not go outside. You want it inside so you have 100% of your inventory online–new and used cars, fresh trades–online 24/7, not on Friday before the weekend– 24/7.
