Also - My friend ran a promotion in his successful workshop where he offered a FREE bicycle health check in the winter months - so Customers bought there bike in (because people love something thats free) , you check it over, give them a list of what needs doing (no actual work done at that point) if they want to go ahead with it you've got yourself a service that you charge for .
realistically most mechanics will spend a portion of time just inspecting and quoting for work, so its something you will do anyway, just make a feature of it!
