Case Study: How the Harris Family Revitalized Their Car Wash Business in Texas with Arrow Dancer’s 18ft Car Wash Air Dancer

Background: A Family Legacy in the Car Wash Industry

In the heart of Austin, Texas, the Harris family has been running their car wash business, “Harris Auto Spa,” for over three decades. What began as a small operation started by James Harris Sr. in the 1990s has grown into a multi-location family enterprise across towns like Round Rock, Pflugerville, and Cedar Park. Known for their dedication to quality and customer service, the family has always sought innovative ways to stay ahead of the competition.

As the next generation of Harrises—James Jr. and his sister Clara—stepped into leadership, they faced a growing challenge: keeping the business visible in a fast-paced, competitive market. While their loyal customer base remained strong, attracting new customers became increasingly difficult with nearby competitors offering flashy deals and digital advertisements.

Challenge: Low Visibility Amid Growing Competition

The Harris family needed a solution to grab attention instantly and increase foot traffic at their locations, especially during peak hours and promotional days. Traditional advertising methods, like flyers and social media campaigns, weren’t delivering the immediate, local impact they were looking for. The challenge was clear: they needed a cost-effective, high-visibility tool to attract customers driving by their car washes.

Solution: Investing in the 18ft Car Wash Air Dancer

After researching various outdoor advertising solutions, James Jr. discovered Arrow Dancer, a trusted provider of high-quality inflatable advertising products. Intrigued by the 18ft Car Wash Air Dancer with Car Sign, James Jr. believed this vibrant, dynamic tool could be the answer to their visibility issues.

The Air Dancer’s bold design, weather-resistant material, and easy setup stood out. Its towering 18ft height, combined with vibrant red and yellow colors and the “Car Wash” signage, promised to draw attention from pedestrians and motorists alike. After consulting with the Arrow Dancer team, the Harris family decided to purchase multiple Air Dancers for their locations in Round Rock and Pflugerville.

Implementation: A Game-Changer in Outdoor Advertising

The Arrow Dancer team delivered the Air Dancers promptly, providing clear setup instructions. Each location was equipped with a dedicated 18-inch blower to ensure optimal performance. Within minutes, the Air Dancers were waving enthusiastically outside Harris Auto Spa locations, catching the attention of passersby.

The family strategically placed the Air Dancers near busy intersections and entrances to their car washes, ensuring maximum visibility. On promotional days, such as their “Saturday Suds Specials,” the Air Dancers became a focal point of their advertising efforts, drawing in curious onlookers and turning them into customers.

Results: A Remarkable Boost in Foot Traffic

The impact of the 18ft Car Wash Air Dancer was immediate and measurable. In just the first month, the Harris family reported a 30% increase in foot traffic across their locations. Customers frequently mentioned the Air Dancers as a reason for noticing the car wash, with many calling them “fun” and “impossible to miss.”

• Round Rock Location: Saw a 25% increase in weekend car washes during their promotional campaigns.
• Pflugerville Location: Reported a 40% rise in walk-in customers during peak hours.
• Cedar Park Location: Attracted more first-time customers, with several stating that the vibrant Air Dancer caught their attention while driving by.

Beyond the numbers, the Air Dancers became a part of the Harris Auto Spa brand identity, helping the business establish a lively, approachable image.

Conclusion: A Small Investment with Big Returns

For the Harris family, the 18ft Car Wash Air Dancer wasn’t just an advertising tool—it was a business transformation. By partnering with Arrow Dancer, they not only addressed their visibility challenges but also revitalized their brand presence in a competitive market.

As James Jr. puts it:

“The Air Dancers from Arrow Dancer have been a game-changer for us. They’ve brought energy to our locations, made us more visible, and ultimately helped us attract more customers. It’s a small investment with big returns.”
