Why Jason Rose Says Don’t Get Paint Correction Training...
There is an emerging theory in the detailing industry that Detailers don’t need to learn paint correction. This is a major shift from what we have been doing over the past 8-10 years.

Could You Have A Cash Flow Biz - Nick From Vegas Rides
If you are year one to three in your detailing business this is a must listen with a note pad. If you are in business longer then three years this is a must listen with a cold beer. Yes there is info for everyone here on this special episode with Nick from Vegas Rides. However, we specifically talk how to do social media as a business and not as a fan club for other Detailers. So if you are in year one to three take some serious notes and implement a lot of what Nick has to say. The episode is a little different as Marshall is driving and DJ is out on his back porch. Hahaha so Nick and DJ get to enjoy Blue Moon Pumpkin while Marshall sips on Citrus Sunrise from Monster 😂 hey make sure u preregister for Sema Pint Night At SemaPintNight.com we will see u there with beers and good times!!

Are You A Detailer or a Brand?

We want to take a moment and discuss how to build a business in your first years of business.

For those of u up north I don’t have to remind you bec your already getting some colder temps. How do you guys make it through the winter? What should you do to prepare?

Christine Ortiz - 2DetailGirls
As Female Detailers continue to explode into the marketplace we wanted to sit down and have a beer with one of the hottest companies out there. We were very thankful that Christine @pfs_christine from @2DetailGirls took time to talk with us about how she has grown her business a little different then most. When Christine was in need of someone to help her business she did something very different when it was time to grow her biz...she gave ownership to her apprentice Christine @666xmom . Yes that is correct, they are both named Christine and yes she gave up ownership to someone else. There are many Detailers trying to grow and are struggling to find team members to help. This approach from Christine might seem a little strange to you but wait till you hear about how well it’s worked. DJ and Marshall enjoy a really nice Belgian Golden Ale from Duval Brewing. Christine drinks the Cuvée Van De Keizer Blauw Belgian Strong Ale. Want to get to know the 2DetailGirls...u will see them at Sema Pint Night coming up in a couple weeks. Visit SemaPintNight.com to reserve your pint 🍻
Why You Should Detail Boats
If you live anywhere close to water then there is someone who has a boat. Good chances that person is going to need his/her boat detailed. How can you be the detail company that cleans cars and boats? In this episode we have Josh Rarick from Rayzor Sharp Detailing on to talk about boat detailing. DJ & Marshall drink an assortment of Josh’s favorite beer style...Chelada. We drink a couple different types of Chelada beer and especially enjoy one of Ashley West’s favorites. Guys it’s Ashley West so u will definitely want to hear about that 🍻 Grab a Pint and Enjoy 🍻
