How Will U Adapt?
Monday Motivation on Tuesday after I send my daughters back to Florida. This is an interesting time to be a detailer bec we are in a moment of frenzy and need to figure out how to survive the scare. I was walking through the airport and a groups of Asians walks right up next to me wearing mask and gloves. I can’t imagine how they felt and if they feel the stares...this fear that we have is a battle. Or maybe it’s just me....but here’s my thoughts on a Tuesday. How can we adapt to this change in economics? How will we grow out of it? Will our businesses survive?

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?

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 🍻
