MSCs that serves Milwaukee and Chicago Area?

I am slowly applying for more and more MSPA member MSCs, however, I am wanting to sign on with companies that have shops available in the Milwaukee and Chicago Areas specifically. Does anyone know of companies that serve these areas? It is frustrating when you go through sometimes a long application process only to find out that they don't have anything in your shopping area (I have had this happen with 10 or more applications). I already am signed up with the most talked about on the forum that do offer work in those areas - MF, ACL, Maritz, Bestmark, RBG, Automotive Insights, IPSOS, Intellishop, but am quickly completing all the shops available and waiting on the rotation time to expire, so need more companies! Thanks for the help!

Happy searching!

I don't know of a way to get a list of companies who do business only in Milwaukee/Chicago unless one of your competitors wants to share his client list with you. Although it might be frustrating to register with multiple companies, it's an investment in your business. And it really doesn't take that long to register with a company. There are some shortcuts you can use. My browser fills in a lot of my personal information. Some companies ask for a short writing sample. I have that saved and I use the same one for all companies. And you can check JobSlinger to see what jobs are posted and with which MSCs. The jobs are likely already gone so no point in applying for the specific jobs you see, but it would give you an idea of which companies do have jobs in the area.

And there are good reasons to apply with multiple companies regardless of whether they have shops in your area. Clients change MSCs, usually at the first of each year and at mid-year, so a company that has no clients in your area today may well have several in 6 months or a year. My best job ever (which has been an on-going job) dropped in my lap about 4 years ago from a company I register with in 2009 and never saw anything posted in my area for 6 years!

Thank you for the tips, very helpful!

Just MF, Intelli, Maritz & ACL will keep you crazy busy in Chicago (if you aren't choosy about fees/ work)

If you like valet parking shops
Www.servimer.shopmetrics.com would be a great choice...

OP:
In addition to the above, you can skim through the ads posted by MSC's on this forum. If you see anything near you (even if it does not sound appealing), sign up with the MSC and see what else they have.

Overall, though, the best advice is to simply sign up for more companies. Tedious though it may be, it's what we all have to do to find the quantity and type of work we want.

Hard work builds character and homework is good for your soul.

Hi I am with Sinclair and we have shops in WI, IL and IN. Here is our website [www.sinclaircustomermetrics.com] if you would like to sign up and take a look.

Nsite has shops in Chicago that they are trying to fill now!
