How Many Brand Salesmen Have Owned A Detailing Business?
We are seeing some of the highest levels of income our industry has ever seen. We continually say it’s a better time then ever to be a detailer!! So are we headed in the right direction as an industry? How can we have Detailers pay hundreds and even thousands to brands for training and then not have a solid foundation for running a business? Is it because most brands hire out salesmen who have never operated a detailing business? These are just a few questions that Marshall views his thoughts after talking with a couple Detailers today...grab a pint and enjoy 🍻
How Detailers Can Get A Brand Deal!
A growing trend in our industry is to get a brand deal or backing. We highly recommend it and encourage Detailers to not put out free content for a brand but rather get a deal if your going to heavily promote someone besides yourself. What better guests to have on than Justin Labato (showroom_auto_salon) and William Lara (@mrmiamiluxe)! Recorded live at MTE Orlando 2020. Grab a pint and enjoy!
Should You Start Detailing For Only $25 Per Car?
The beauty of our industry is that it’s such a low cost to entry. Literally anyone can hop in and start a business overnight. But how much do you charge when starting? Do you immediately charge premium pricing or is it possible to start lower? We had the pleasure of having Derek (@djdetailing) and Luis (lh_mobile_detailing) to share their journey! Recorded live at MTE Orlando 2020. Grab a pint and enjoy!

Why Rob Says You Should Come To MTE
Rob Schruefer, founder of On The Spot in Baltimore, has built your American Detailers Dream company. Grinding away for years and has scaled into a full fledged company employing over 150 team members. One of our questions for Rob was, “Now that you’re at this level why are you still coming to MTE?”
Could Detailers Bridge A Market Gap?
Is there a new alternative to spending 10-12 hours on a paint correction? What about just repainting the vehicle? Sound absurd? So is pizza with sauce on the top and sausage on the bottom but DJ and Marshall sit down with Charlotte from SSR Sprayless Scratch Repair @ssrspraylessscratchrepair to eat such a pizza. Savastano’s is Charlotte’s favorite pizza joint here in Tulsa, Ok and our friend Cass @snakeplissken09 comes by. In this episode we want to learn more about how touch up paint, scratch repair, and dealership operations could help Detailers learn how to grow their business. Are you not doing any B2B sales? Then your missing out on an entire side of the market that needs the skill sets from a Detailer. Are you good enough to attempt what some call the impossible? Maybe...maybe not....either way make sure u grab a pint of Kona Beer @new_konabeer and enjoy 🍻

Are Female Detailers Better?
We start 2020 with what we feel will be a big question of this year...are women Detailers better then males? As the emergence of female Detailers come to the auto industry it will be cool to see how many shops create family atmospheres like Gil has created with his ladies of Tango Mike. Marshall sits down with Gil, Katie, Maria and Tank to hear about what they are doing in Stafford to set themselves apart.
