Hey everyone. I'm about to take the plunge and advance my small scale detailing business into the mobile detailing world.
I've spent many nights reading and re-reading articles about this here and around the Internet. I'm still left with a few questions.
I understand the need for business insurance and found a thread with costs associated there, but couldn't find anything related to auto insurance. Do you have your vehicle/trailer insured as a commercial vehicle? If so, how much do you pay? Do you have both registered with dot?
I'm looking at a 6x10 trailer, which I will outfit with a water tank around 100gal, but not sure if I should invest in a self-priming pressure washer or a separate water pump.
I've been trying out intuit quickbooks online, and they offer a service to accept credit cards. I like the program and would like to continue with this unless anyone has another program I should consider.
Are you required to charge sales tax? From what I've read in Michigan there's not tax in service, but just curious.
I understand the risks associated with the business and have found plenty of helpful advice, so I'm not really looking for anything like that, just help with the questions I've asked.
Thanks in advance!
Mike
