Hi my name is Mark Waltermire and I have recently started my mobile detailing business. I am working on business cards, and t-shirts right now. What I'm most concerned about right now is my website Wilmington Detailing. I am just looking for some constructive criticism on how to make it better. I know that I need more photos and am working on those right now. It looks like right now I'll be doing an FR-S next week for the person printing my t-shirts. I have worked out a little bit of a barter with him exchanging services. What do you guys think of prices? I'm also going to get a photo of me posted on the "about us" page as soon as I get a good one.
 
The site is well put together. Informative. The top banner on the main page clashes a bit with the blue Tacoma, but that's just my opinion. What's your take on pet hair? I didn't see it on the site, and I know that I can't stand it personally. I upcharge significantly for it, and if it's bad enough, will charge by the hour. Prices are debatable to what you feel your services are valued at, as well as your demographic. I think that you've nicely laid out what each package includes, and that's important. Others will chime in and add to it, but nicely done.
 
Very nice website.Glad you didn't go down the unprofitable car wash service.I think you will do well in that area with those prices,and your mobile which is a major bonus.
 
Well I based the prices off of Renny Doyle's book. I'm still thinking I'm on the low of what I should be charging. Not sure though wether to raise my prices now or wait.
 
Thats kinda iffy.If your gonna raise them do it now or test the market in your area for a little bit.what are your competitors charging for mobile services?
 
Easier to drop your prices if you're too high, than go back and raise them. However, as GSKR stated, do it now, or don't do it. Pick a demographic, and adjust your prices accordingly. Also, your prices should be a direct reflection of your abilities.
 
Site looks good. Just a couple of things, first one is just my own pet peeve lol.
The first sentence on the landing page "All Cars at Wilmington Detailing are taken the best care of and end up in better condition then they started" the word then should be than.The button link to Detailing Services goes to a "page can't be found."

Ok I fixed both of those.

I've also decided to just leave pricing where it is. I don't have to quote someone on the low end of that spectrum if they live farther away. I just need to factor that into consideration when giving quotes.
 
I'm not the grammar police...but here's what I'd change:

Your heading - Our Process' is not a process...what you have there describes your commitment to your customers...I'd change it to 'Our Commitment'. The word 'cars' in the first sentence should not be capitalized. Your original use of the word 'than' was correct...but I would reword it to read..."All cars serviced by Wilmington Detailing are treated as if they were our own, and will be in better condition when our work is completed. We provide full interior, and exterior services with packages fitting everyone's detailing needs.

Under the heading 'Wilmington Detailing'.....second sentence the word should be 'suits'...not 'suites'....also...you do not need to (contact us) links that take you to the same place....you could change the last sentence to simply reference the link below

as far as pricing...charge what your market dictates
