That's crazy to hear a story that reflects my life it makes me feel not alone I started freelance detailing when I found a love in washing and vacuuming my mom's car I just got a detailing job at a Charter bus company and start this Monday!! I hope that whatever decisions you make now and the future hold success 🙌

When it comes to starting a business vs. just being self employed as a detailer, you need to start with your foundation, which is your business plan. Planning your procedures, deciding what equipment you need, your help and staff roles, all depends on where you're taking your business. Are you going to retire as an independent detailer? Do you want to open a shop? Will you retire from the shop and close it, or sell/hand off the business? Would you expand your shop, open more locations, or move into other aspects of the auto or cleaning business? You don't need these answers on day one, but you should be planning for the future as you go. I revise my business plan every year, depending on the trajectory of the business, current market trends and projections, and what we learned or failed/succeeded at last year. This all sounds complicated, but it's really just a matter of taking some time to sit down and think a bit, and maybe dream a little too. Once you have a plan, you can decide all of what you need, and how exactly you'll do things.

Thanks for this comment

I only got 3 tips. 1- get off your phone 2- don’t sit down while your detailing if you can avoid it. 3- have a tote for each service. Ex - I have two one has all my interior stuff like chemicals, towels , brushes ext the other one has all my exterior stuff detail spray compounds detail brushes tire shine ext.

Oscar, great video. Have you read 2 Second Lean by Paul Akers or The E-Myth? I highly recommend business owners read these.

This is an outstanding video. Perhaps the best on this topic on KZread. The key ideas are all here, presented well. the most important one IMHO is having a system that you have proofed and incorporates industry best practices. Video yourself and watch for all the wasted steps, then figure out how to reduce / eliminate each one. I would add one suggestion and that is to combine steps / product capabilities in your system wherever they make sense and don’t compromise quality. For example get an interior cleaner that is good for as many materials as possible and that also has UV protection so you don’t have to go back with a separate protection application after cleaning, or keep switching between products as you go. Get a cleaner that is good for both wheels and tires, and that also has (or you mix in) iron remover. Consider combining wash with clay lube and even wax by using a no-rinse wash that doubles as the clay lube then go right to claying while the no-rinse is still wet on the vehicle (re-wet as necessary if it starts to dry mid-way) and as you finish claying each panel, apply a spray- on wax as you go. Eliminate all unnecessary movement and where you can’t, find a way to detail even as you move. Movement is inherently wasteful. Bring the tools and products to you. Keep up the great content and thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Thanks Oscar. It's ALL about the process!! 🤜⚡️🤛

Lots of good advice in this video. I like to prepare everything I can for the next day so I am organized and efficient. I found having my tools and chemicals close to the vehicle helps eliminate a lot of walking back and forth, which is a time waster.
