My first rough draft was terrible too, but I kept tweaking it till I got it right and knew how much I wanted to make per hour and I'm still tweaking it years later. When people see "Major Detail" their going to think there getting the works, but that's not where your "Major" problem is IMO. It's just hard to understand. You list "Interior Steam Cleaning" at $70, but the major detail is $100 and that includes steam? That means your charging $30 for the wash and wax. I just don't get why you would have 4 types of upholstery cleaning, that's almost your entire list. You have floor mat cleaning, carpet, upholstery, and steam. If you put all these together you get around $145, but a "Major "Detail is $99.99. Also, the Paint Correction package will really get on your nerves when you quote somebody that price on the phone and spend 12 hours on a beat-up car and make a little over $100. You might want to put "And Up" on all your prices at the very least, or go hourly on paint correction, because you never know what kind of paint your going to run in to , and at those prices, I think you'll be doing alot of people's cars that don't have it detailed regularly. You would be surprised at the level of client you can obtain just from raising prices a little. That's all I have to say for now, hope this helps, it's just my opinion, and you'll get a thousand other opinions if you ask a thousand people.
thanks for your reply i know that had to take a second to type. the prices are low, i started with them kinda higher then most around here, and kept running into jaw drops.

i know i need to look at it way more, thats why i needed opinions. i can do that major detail in somewheres around 2 hours, maybe 30 minutes longer. i am trying to target people with beaters, but also who dont wanna spend the money on making it perfect. idk. i need to look at it more, preciate the response though
