Congratulations! A two part epoxy floor would really make it pop. Maybe a couple pics or posters of cars etc.A concrete stain would be pretty cheap under $100. On exterior maybe a couple "Smile you are on camera" signs .

Epoxy on the floor not only improves looks but will make spills/leaks easier to clean up.

OP congrats on the new shop, I hope you get lots of business and make great profit.

By the hour. I dont pay commision because it speeds them up and makes me have to go back over and check their work even more than I already do. I pay quarterly bonus based all facets. Performance, punctuality, attitude, experience, flexibility, customer relations etc...

And I wont hire anybody for less than $10 an hour. Around here basic detailers are often started at 8 or 9, but you get what you pay for. I have guys making $12 -$14 an hour mostly. And they show up early, work hard, beg for overtime, and really appreciate the bonuses. Never, ever, have problems with them. I have people begging me to hire them. And its because I pay more than everybody else, by far. And it makes me feel really good to know my employees can afford a decent home, dependable car that won't leave them calling me at 7:30 telling me they are having trouble, and can support their families. $8 an hour makes people want to jump off a bridge, or steal. Thats not the recipe for success. Its the recipe for headaches.

I agree.

Just a question... why does your status show as BANNED?
 
Thanks everyone. I will have pictures up later today
 
Well we had our grand opening today. We did two x5s a honda civic a toyota sienna and a BENTLEY. Yes you heard me right. A Bentley. It was really fun. I had a blast but most importantly I feel great.
 
That's AWESOME to hear brotha! Enjoy the feeling.
 
Day two. Got out first SUV in today. Wash and wax and thorough interior

Looks great wish mine was that big. The only suggestion I have is maybe bring the wall lights up about 4-5 inches.
 
Great work, I just wanted to know where are you located at? Also how many employees do you have and do you do any detailing yourself now that you opened the shop?
