Detail business in Minneapolis

I've been watching this forum for some time and actually have used the Autopia guide to detailing for training my employees.
My name is Todd and I run a brick and mortar detail shop in downtown Minneapolis. We just started the operation last fall but I have been detailing for many years being a car enthusiast.

I work at a convenience store that also does quick lube, full service work, restaurant, towing, and now detailing. The chain has 8 locations around the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and if I can make this work in the downtown location I plan on opening up detail operations in the other locations as well as mobile.

This forum is a great wealth of knowledge and opinions. I hardly have the time to keep up with new products, or even existing products for that matter, so its nice to have a reference.

Given the seasonal temperatures (and the recent April snow storm ), I'm glad the summer is finally approaching but it also makes me worry about this next winter already. How do you others keep busy in the winter months?

We detail just in the spring, summer and fall and mostly on weekends. Have a full time career the rest of the time.
