Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“The first part of their service that impressed me was that they were not on time, they were EARLY! I love it! Our driver was 200-percent awesome! There were 12 of us in the stretch Lincoln SUV, and when we arrived at the restaurant, he noticed a fight about to break out, and he immediately closed the door and drove us away from the commotion until it was settled and the people dissipated. When he saw everything was clear, he drove us to the front of the restaurant and waited until we were safely inside. He was never late picking us up between destinations on our schedule. He was very courteous and extremely professional. The owner, Carl, was an absolute pleasure to deal with from the very beginning. The bottled waters were cold, and the colorful napkins in the glasses added a huge spark to the entire evening. I wish I could think of another reason to use them TOMORROW, except I’ll just be going to work. They are definitely the ONLY limousine rental company on my list now! I don’t think anybody in the world can beat their prices!” – Shane W.

Not Your Average Limousine Service

We took a few minutes to talk with Carl Wilson, owner of Limo Rental Columbia, to learn a little more about his business and how he managed to build such an incredible online reputation.

The first question we had for Carl was what makes Limo Rental Columbia different from the many other limousine services in South Carolina. Here’s his response:

“We’ve been around for 29 years. We’ve got the best-serviced cars in Columbia and the best drivers; they show up in uniform looking professional. We pride ourselves on our professionalism!”

Carl also shared the story of how he got into the chauffeur business and started Limo Rental Columbia:

“About 35 years ago, I started driving for a friend. Another gentleman hired me on to help run his business, and when he sold it, I started my own.”

Building Success by Following Up and Asking for Reviews

Carl credits Limo Rental Columbia’s strong online reputation to his commitment to following up with his customers and asking the to leave reviews:

“I follow up with every account to see how the service was. I ask them to please leave a review if they’re happy with their service.”

When asked how he has grown Limo Rental Columbia outside of building an online reputation, Carl had this to say:

“Word of mouth is about a third of my business. I also have two website consultants that do a phenomenal job of driving business to us. If you don’t have a great website, you’re not going to make it. Yelp drives a lot our way, too. I hired a company to do our social media management, but that didn’t seem to drive any business.:

There are so many business owners out there working to grow their business and build their online reputation. Here’s Carl’s expert advice for those business owners:

“You have to take care of the customers! If you don’t do that, nothing else matters. It’s not how new or how big or fantastic your product is, it’s what you’ve got left over at the end of the month that keeps you going. Take care of the people that work for you, too. It’s not always about you!”


Congratulations to the team at Limo Rental Columbia for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Carl, for taking the time to speak with us!
