Real Talk - Importance Of Wholesale For Your Business

Detailers lets have some open real talk about where you can get more customers and revenue coming into your shop! How can you do it? Despite what you have been hearing from coating brand sales reps...wholesale production style detailing is massively profitable. No longer will the #community🍻 remain quite about the coating brand disease that has infected our industry! We who operate successful detailing businesses as a #community🍻 are voicing truths about how to grow a successful detailing business.  Having wholesale customers is a key component for many large detailing businesses.  If you have been in the Jacksonville, Florida area then you have heard the name Porsche Paul @theceramicpros who is synonymous for doing an extremely large volume of Porsche's.  Sounds like a good business that many detailers would love to have a similar brand recognition! Let's dive into his story to find out how he has climbed into this type of recognition.

Mental Game Of Detailing

What part of your body do you think is the most valuable for Detailing? Your hand because they hold the polisher, they hold the wash mit, the towel...etc. How about your feet? Lol I’m not going there 😂 Right! We all know it’s our mind! We know that the it’s the control center for our Detailing Business and there’s nothing more valuable then our minds 🙌🏼🙌🏼 As Detailers, we will all struggle with devaluing your mind at times in our career. How do we do this? We allow fear, stress, anxiety and the list goes on of negativity that we allow in. It’s a tough game to play...the mental game! You make one bad decision that can lead to a domino effect...or you are able to pivot from your mistake and adapt to the market. The decisions we make as business owners effect not only our lives but also all of our customers, team members and vendors. The more stable u are in your mental game the better Business Owner/Entrepreneur u will be! Are you ready to talk about it? Let’s have some #community🍻 on Wednesday Nights 7:30 central on Zoom meeting ID 9188001188
