REFLECTIONS MOBILE DETAILING: Truck and Trailer Set-up

I’ve had a few requests to take some pictures of my mobile detailing set-up, so I finally found some time today to clean everything up and snap some pictures. I started out detailing as a side job while teaching elementary school Health and P.E. I was having some much of demand for my services I decided to give it a go full-time. So far I’ve very pleased w/ my decision. I currently either wash, wax, or detail 20 to 30 vehicles a week. Most being wash and vacs for my regular clients. I’m beginning to pick up more detail jobs, but it does take time to get the high dollar jobs. I’m at a point now that I can tell new customers that unless they have 3 or more wash and vac jobs I can’t come across town for a 40 dollar wash job. I do however tell them I would love to at least wash and wax or detail their vehicle. Some say no and sound a little pissed, but the ones that say yes are the type of customers I’m trying to attract. One of my goals for this upcoming year is to market myself to higher end clients. I’ve got a few connections in some really expensive private neighborhoods, so hopefully things will pan out. I would love to hear from some you professionals out there on ways to attract the higher end clients.
