📗 Download The Ultimate Guide To Start Your Detailing Business: bit.ly/3ax3Dtb

And again, Oscar provides the most REAL perspective on what detailing is actually like. It's always nice to know there are others suffering through the same obstacles in this industry. I'll add; one of the worst feelings is forgetting headphones knowing you've got a paint correction or two back-to-back interior details. Nothing worse than having to listen to a vacuum, compressed air or polisher for six hours.

so real

Weather is probably one of the major factors for mobile detailing, bathroom breaks 9 out of 10 customers always offer, space for detailing hasn’t been an issue for us, travel time is always 30 to 1 hour depending on traffic conditions, misshape I try to check everything every night before the detailing in the morning including checking our Van

100% agree, there’s honestly absolutely nothing wrong with asking the customer to use their restroom. 90% of the time they offer water or bathroom first.

Can't agree more on this reality! Crowded and tight spaces are a huge distraction and are very uncomfortable. Thank You.

Being in the middle of a mobile detail and then coming down with a case of the Hershey Squirts is one of the worst things ever. If the customer is a regular and I know them well enough to have an embarrassing conversation, I will ask if I can come back the next day. Saying that, I always keep a box of Immodium in the truck in case on of us have that issue. If you take several of them after the first squirt, that will usually solve the issue.

Im a detailer and that has happened to me so many times! I know another detailer with a sprinter that had a toilet built in his set up lol

I haven’t watched the video yet but I would say the main issues I ran into before acquiring a shop space were: weather, parking, having to rush the job because of clients, high gas prices, setup and take down. Looking forward to seeing your reasons.

You are the very best bro!!!! I built my business learning from you and bellied up when I had to shift to mobile detailing ... This is so ON TIME!!! You deserve the best!! Teaching the world survival skills🤙I'm a fan for sure!! Glad to see ur shop legite 💯 Superior Detailing NW, Rocky

The same suv i had scheduled i had to reschedule because the weather. It might have bin sunny in the morning but it was calling for rain in the afternoon so had to work around that job is still pending

Great job explaining things

If its hot in a city that im going to work in, i try book the appointment at 6am or 7am. The earlier the better

Well said on 5th point...plan & overcome.

Can you make a vid of just hot to go about cleaning windows don't really see videos of it and how to go about fir the windshield not to get the smudges that come up when the sun goes down and the street light comes on you can see the passes you did with the rags

Invisible glass or spray away works wonders on the outside. One towel to wipe one towel to buff off. usually on the front windshield, there is a layer of oil that can't be taken away with glass cleaner. you have to use a degreaser, alcohol, or vinegar to get rid of it.

When ur new trainie new the customers and had a couple drinks on the job. Yay.. fun🤣🤣

I’d say 6-7 / 10 people always offer there restroom which I don’t ask unless I reallly have to go and don’t want to drive somewhere.

Have an employee bring their car or one of your cars and whoever has to go drives to the nearest store

Unless it's like a 5-minute drive with only one location, this is very cumbersome and not ideal. But would help a lot!

the gas station people always let me use the key to take a leak lol

Imagine having to drop a duece in the customers bathroom and than it not flushing! Ask me how I came up with that scenario... 💩🤣

Hey oscar, i signed up for 14 day free trial for jobber today and they charged my 20 dollars today? Thought they charge you at the end of the 14 day free trial. I canceled same day, they saying no charge but when i cancelled, they said no refunds? I just started free trial, why are they charging me. Is this the type of stuff you promote oscar. People being lied to and then ripped off because Jobber just ripped me off.

Why is Lex putting those mats on the windshield?

Hey there

Why do you keep saying "Pause " lol think that might have been meant to be edited out lol

@IAmDarkKnightmare

11 ай бұрын

He says it whenever he says something akin to "That's what she said". Like a comment saying "If your hose busts" or "It's too big". Pause is something someone says after saying a potential innuendo that someone can be like "Hold up. Pause. What did you just say?". Haha! Hope that makes sense. It's a generational saying these days. Not really something I grew up saying. I just know what it means.

this is the best explanation I have heard. I'm just going to copy and paste this when someone asks that same question 😅

I've been at this for quite a while now, and mobile detailing never interested me. I often go and pick up customer vehicles, bring them to my shop, and then return them, but taking my shop to them never seemed to make sense to me.

Some people would rather have their vehicle in there sight while getting it detailed I believe

Usually I'm chugging water while detailing and for some reason I never have to pee until I get home

This lady around my town keeps trying to advertise her business but she’s like 60 wtf is she going to do

I just started a pressure washing business at the beginning of the year, still part time but one thing that no one will ever tell you is how hard it is to get a push start. Like for real everybody just thinks they can hop into soemthing and a month from now be balling. Rough fucking start to anything if you're alone and not having a loan or daddy and mommy money.
