You guys should be ashamed of yourselves! He's just starting out! Give him some time to make money...then maybe he can help out. He's right...it is a business.

i have a suggestion, what if you give out key chain, pen, with your shop info. so you can give things that can advertise your shop. or if they purchase more than $900 to get free airfreshner or t-shirt (with your shop info)... this is just suggestions... i want to visit your shop soon.... to buy parts

Unfortunately that's part of running a business especially here in Hawaii... it's such a small community. People will buddy up and try to get stuff from you. I would just be up front and tell them that you didn't get this stuff for free so you can't be giving it out. Services are different, but you have actual merchandise that cost you money in the first place.

when someone asks for something free- the way i look at it--- it's a potential way to make money on something... at least they are interested in your product- could be vakamon, razor concepts, high pace or some other guy. but no- they have you in mind. and yes they want freebies... use your salesmanship to make it something profitable....
just my $.02 and hope that helps
