Opening a Chicago detail shop?

[BlueZero]

That`s good to hear. I figured with the winters around here I would never be able to do this for more than a hobby / part time deal. Good luck with your shop, I wish you the best of luck!

The odd thing about midwest or other areas that "have" a winter, is that most studies show that the winter months are the most busy and profitable.

Working with dealerships insures a steady flow of business 365 days a year. It doesn`t matter if it`s raining or snowing, they still need them done. I never had a slow period, but spring and summer were typically the busiest.

I do hear that many guys use dealerships to pay the bills and keep the work steady. With that said, if you have not had a dealership account before, don`t go in there "naked". Talk with a few that have. It`s not like talking with a retail customer.
