I suggest you use spell check then resubmit that for people here to evaluate.

Your prices seem way to low. How much experience and equipment do you have?

[Beemerboy]

It would help if you listed your process in the order they are done in...I`m not sure what a polishing wax is? If clay is included no matter if needed or not should be included..you can shorten the whole thing by saying complete interior and exterior detail with all surface cleaned and conditioned are $$

I`m not sure of your experience level but your prices seem very cheap to me.

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to cheap bro............people think cheap = lousy work ...detailing is hard work so set it up to make $25.00........$40.00 hr ....serious . you will use alot of chemicals and you have to buy /maintain equipment/ pads ect ...

i agree the prices seem alittle low. raise each by $20 imo.

[Bunky]

I think the pricing order you have is wrong. You should price the Gold detail and then identify the extras in the platinum detail rather than what is missing. It just seems odd.

I honesty had a feeling it was not a good layout Thanks For Info

Hello dickie. I went to high school at Salem Community High School. I have many friends in Mt.Vernon. Welcome to the forums and good luck with your business.

Raise your prices.

[dickie]

i agree the prices seem alittle low. raise each by $20 imo.

Well My main comp. prices(people say) are alittle too high so thats why I went with that. But I see what u and everyone is saying. The matter is the 2 other detailers here have either a shop or a fancy set-up and good money. check it out Clean-N-Classy

I dont have a trailer yet so I will be working out of my car, or at my house for now. I guess I should keep it more basic. what you think

When I was 17 me and a friend ran a shop for awhile and I do details for family and 2 friends, but really never used a buffer/polisher but I been tryin to learn.

Yes, Keep it as simple as possible.What kind of equiptment?expeirence/products do you have? I have not made a flyer in a quarter of a century(I am an old Man)If you want my honesty, your flyer needs alot of help I`m no good at setting up something like that either,maybe your girlfriend or any other friend could help you set this up.1 thing I would say is do NOT offer to many chose`s it only adds confusing to customer IMO.Check the how to set up biz forum on this site maybe that will help
You say your town only has 16,000 people and you already have at least 2(maybe more)pro detailers.So you do not have alot of room for error.I would like you to have as much Knowledge as possible before you go out and start to get paying customers.I know you are ready to get started but I think you need more studying.Don`t be a HACK...There is no satisfaction there you lose and so does everyone else.Stick with us and read,read,read,read,read,

[newbug1]

You say when you were 17 you and a friend ran a shop; was it a detail shop, or ??
Also, how long ago was it?

IMO you should learn as much as you can about detailing, ESPECIALLY how to use a buffer! (and especially a rotary...you can get in trouble quickly if you don`t know how to use one).

Enthusiasm is great, but supplement it with as much experience as you can get. Don`t worry that someone else in town has more money etc for their shop. If you do good work at a good price you`ll get business.

And yes, use the spell checker when you do a flyer, but also have someone proof-read it for spelling and punctuation. Spell checker can`t do everything. Why not print an actual flyer and post an image of it here for us?

Gotta go with my boy`s here... you are way to cheap. You need a good process to start with and when you have that fine tuned you figure out how much is you time and quality of work worth.
