We have the perfect gift for that special person or persons in your life. The gift of a detailed vehicle. You may have been asking yourself, "what do I get someone that has everything they need"? You aren't the only one that has asked that same question and the answer is; a gift card to have their vehicle detailed. You would be taking one task, a rather big task off their to-do list...cleaning their vehicle.

Now that you know what the perfect gift is, visit us to pick up your gift card(s). You can do a specific amount or do what almost everyone else does and select one of our popular detailing packages.

Our gift cards make for the perfect gift all year, but, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Birthdays and Christmas are the most popular time to give the gift of a detailed vehicle.

We look forward to seeing you when you stop by to pick up, "The Gift That's Always Right!".

Over the years we’ve encountered numerous individuals, families, schools, groups, teams and organizations that require donations and local support in order to operate. These individuals and organizations go from business to business seeking help, not because they have to, because they NEED to in order to raise much needed funds.
 
Throughout, our years in business we’ve helped our community raise money for school events, school supplies, medical bills, sport team expenses, non-profit expenses, community group expenses and much more.
 
Are you a family, individual, school, team, non-profit or kids-group that needs to raise money? Do you know someone or an organization that needs help raising money? Allied Automotive Brokers & Detailing wants to help you raise much needed funds for your cause.
 
What is the best use?
Our fundraising cards have been mostly used for silent auctions individually or you can combine with other donated items to increase value. You could also sell fundraising for $5 and keep entire amount. It’s a win/win. Purchasers save $10 on detailing service and you profit $5.

Gratitude...what does the word gratitude mean? 

The word 'gratitude' can mean a lot to many different people. I have this piece of paper in a work binder that defines gratitude and explains what it means to be grateful. These sentences on gratitude can not be better defined if you ask me:


"Gratitude means thankfulness, counting your blessings, noticing simple pleasures, and acknowledging everything that you receive. It means learning to live your life as if everything were a miracle, and being aware on a continuous basis of how much you’ve been given. Gratitude shifts your focus from what your life lacks to the abundance that is already present. In addition, behavioral and psychological research has shown the surprising life improvements that can stem from the practice of gratitude. Giving thanks makes people happier and more resilient, it strengthens relationships, it improves health, and it reduces stress.

“To say we feel grateful is not to say that everything in our lives is necessarily great. It just means we are aware of our blessings.”


NOTICE AND APPRECIATE EACH DAY’S GIFTS
People tend to take for granted the good that is already present in their lives. There’s a gratitude exercise that instructs that you should imagine losing some of the things that you take for granted, such as your home, your ability to see or hear, your ability to walk, or anything that currently gives you comfort. Then imagine getting each of these things back, one by one, and consider how grateful you would be for each and every one. In addition, you need to start finding joy in the small things instead of holding out for big achievements—such as getting the promotion, having a comfortable nest egg saved up, getting married, having the baby, and so on–before allowing yourself to feel gratitude and joy.


Another way to use giving thanks to appreciate life more fully is to use gratitude to help you put things in their proper perspective. When things don’t go your way, remember that every difficulty carries within it the seeds of an equal or greater benefit. In the face of adversity ask yourself: “What’s good about this?”, “What can I learn from this?”, and “How can I benefit from this?”"

Effective January 31, 2017

Allied Automotive Brokers & Detailing made its' last price, services offered and package adjustment for the next two-years. We normally adjust our services offered, packages and prices at the beginning of each year to eliminate, consolidate or adjust. This yearly adjustment ensures we offer you, our clients, the best services, packages and prices throughout our area (Southern Illinois-Jackson County).

When it was time to adjust prices, services and packages for the 2017 year, we decided to rewards our loyal clients by freezing prices for the next two-years. We have also settled on three main packages, which, have proven to be our most popular packages for the past few years. We have also eliminated a few services that were no longer requested on a regular basis. 

Thank you so much for being a loyal client.

With gratitude,
David Cook-Owner/Operator
