Hello fellow AutoGeeks.
I started my detailing obsession in late December and its been great. I've grown to now starting up my own small business for auto detailing. Its my favorite hobby and i want to make it into a good job. I love detailing and am excited to see what comes next!
 
Ive been thinking about starting up something small this spring/summer myself. Can you post up some ideas and insight as to how you started out and what services your providing.

thanks and best of luck!!!

Best of luck and don’t forget to enjoy what you’re doing! If you feel like you’re not enjoying detailing anymore than switch over to just doing family and friends cars this was you can keep your passion for it. I know a lot of people who get into something purely to make money and loose the passion/drive they had when they first started.

Good luck. If you have questionss don't hesitate to ask.
 
So i started out my obsession with the love for cleaning. Something about it just draws me in. I'm a car guy too so they kinda tied together. I began research and built up the basic items for a car wash. I originally just did my own car and some friends cars as a hobby, but then realised i could make money doing this. The first thing i did was get all the essential supplies needed. This took a while but in a few months i would have everything i need to start doing jobs. I made a a simple business card stating my contact info and services. Cards are now on order. Right now i'm just doing a few different wash levels, Wax/Sealant, engine bay and headlight restoration. Interior has 3 different levels that you can choose from. From basic clean to full detail. I'm starting simple in order to get practice and a solid customer base. Later on i will probably venture deeper into paint correction and stuff of that nature. Just keep it simple at efirst. Don't try to offer every service imaginable. Hope that helps!
 
All the best to you Kyle. Starting your own business is a huge leap of faith and it is good to see the American entrepreneurial spirit alive and well. You will find a lot of support here.
