Excellent tutorial for those wanting to get into detailing. I started seasonal detailing in my driveway of my first house chasing the shade. We bought a brand new "zero mileage" house in 1997 with a basic two car garage. in 2011, we took a garage bay, converted it to a new entryway and laundry room, and added a new garage bay. My wife got her 1st floor laundry room, I got a fully drywalled, heated and insulated garage to detail out of. Win win!

This video was on point! Great job brother. You are an inspiration for all of us weekend-warriors grinding it out. You can't get where you want to go in life unless you take that first step towards it, and once you do momentum will carry you as far as you want to go! Maybe someday I'll break down and buy a shed to put all my kids stuff in rather than having it visible in all my videos 🤣. Next house will definitely have a dedicated shop for sure!

I love your comments on keeping your costs down. I think that is so true in business but seems to be a bigger issue in the detailing world. So many people have an ego about what products they use and how "professional" they are instead of working towards profitability and what the customer wants. Most customers don't know and don't care what you are using as long as they get the result they feel they should get. Free marketing like Facebook posting, Nextdoor posting, word of mouth, and Google My Business, is really key. Great stuff dude!

This is great information, Eddie. I had a huge struggle with pricing. I've polished cars since 1998, even won awards with clients for "best paint", or similar, but I always feel like I should be PAYING THEM for the fun of polishing their vehicles. I'm over it now though!

@Ecdetails 8 ай бұрын

Pricing is that one piece alot of detailers struggle with - I generally ask them if they can tell me what a wash costs them per car? Or what your true cost of a paint correction, time, product etc all that has to be considered

How to handle a potential customer who thinks its odd to come to a persons house for detailing? I had a business before but i lived in a huge subdivision so it wasnt really a big deal. Ive since moved and now Im struggling to start again cause im skeptical people would travel to drop their car off at my house ?

Great Video. The one thing I will say is for those that can't clear out their garage completely, ensure that there is a demarcation zone in the garage that shows the split between business and personal. This is highly important if there was ever a tax audit performed by the county tax accessor. Another tip is yes start out with what you can afford, but make sure you know how to use the equipment and chemicals before working on someone else's car. Insurance is important but it is also important not to need to use it at the beginning @Ecdetails Have you considered doing a video on starting your own product line for your detail business?

@Ecdetails 18 күн бұрын

Hey thanks for watching , my own product line what do you mean ? Also I think insurance is a must you never know when it happens
