To all of you in that so-called state below Georgia, you officially suck this morning.


Freakn' 11* here.........RIGHT NOW!!!

Needless to say, I now will be participating in a 3-day weekend!!!

I am not working in this. I don't think my water is either!
 
22* Here !!! I gotta work night shift this week with only 1 wash-n-wax on the schedule for WED. I got some 4-1 Rinseless on the way :)
 
Its 6 here in NY :( in the 4th snowiest place in the US :( I hate NY
 
13* here with 15 MPH winds I am glad I work from home today! I dont even have to step out in it.
 
Here in sunny south florida, we're freezing also, a high of only 65, Justin.....lol. Don't know how i will work , well, it'll be up to 80 again in a couple of days. You'll thaw out when you get here in february. That's why i can wotk year round, only i have to battle the hundreds of so called detailers here with their $50 specials. We all have our battles to fight. Keep warm everyone.

I know there is alot of competition down there. I have none. Only one hole in the wall and the owner has a DUI every other week. Would you let him pick up YOUR car? Hellz no!

But then again, I'm at home not making any money!
 
aw man, i feel ya Justin, its gonna be 64* here today, damn. hahah
 
We call that a snow day here in Utah. Doesn't have to be any precipitation. Snow days mean you don't have to go to school. I think this qualifies in your situation and state.

I think it's supposed to be the coldest week here in centraxl Texas since 1996. Looking forward to it!

I'm getting ready to go out to businesses now to advertise.
 
Man, that's cold Justin. BRRRRRRRRRR You are so disciplined though to go out and advertise. If it were me I'd probably just go back to bed. :) But that's why you're making the big bucks. ;)

Give me a rough cut on your sales pitch. It would be interesting to know how you approach the un-educated consumer on keeping their vehicle maintained.

:righton: < Pointers are always good :D
 
"Hello(to receptionist). Can I speak to the owner of this business?"

"Hello sir/mam. My name is Justin Murphy, president of Clean4U Detailing (I say all of this while shaking hands."

"I see you all have some really nice vehicles here. I would love the opportunity to maintain them for you"

The next part of the conversation is about pricing and telling what services I offer.

This is followed by the assumed close.......
Withe my appointment book open and not even looking up I say:
"So, what day of the week is good for you?"

And that's when I get an objection or appointment. If there's an objection, I simply counter it. 75% set an appointment up this way.

Great approach. I was thinking the same thing when your opening line was "praising the owners of their nice vehicles"

I've been trying the flyer approach and recieved about 5 out of 100. I'm thinking of talking to nicer neighborhoods HOAs and see what can and can't I do to advertise. There is a some neighborhoods around me with 500+ homes in the 500's-Up. They gotta have some loot and nice vehicles :)
 
37* now tonight 27-25* :( God am I missing Miami right now......
 
Stay warm Justin, it's kind of cold down here for south Florida and I think it suppose to be colder tomorrow. It must be nice to have a day off. I forgot what it's like. I'm really looking forward to have some time off.
