Hello From Your New Boss

**DetailingKing** · 03-07-2012, 12:02 AM

Just wanted to catch your attention with the title. My name is Kelvin. I live in Texas and I have 5 months to establish 3 customers per week. I plan to do this while in college, to work Saturday and Sunday. I want 200 a week nothing more. Do any of you know where I can get training in the DFW area?

200/week over 3 customers is $66/gig. you can do that with an ad on Craigs List. You`ll also be working for like $6/hour if you`re offering paint correction for that price.

Hey there! Welcome to Autopia! Your title sure did catch my attention!

You`re atleast going in the right direction by establishing goals, but like Jaison already mentioned, your goal should be easily attained. Can you explain how you`ll be going about growing your business?

I`m in Fort Worth, not aware of places around DFW to get training. All depends what kind of detailing you want to do and how much experience you have.

It`s a pleasure to be here.

I have no training. That`s why I`m looking for some. I just got fire from my job about 3 weeks ago and I still cant find one. That`s why I`m want to start this.

When I bought a motorcycle and than a car i found out that I actually enjoy going from dirty to clean. Instant gratification. I plan to do one car a day for now. I don`t mind spending eight hours working on one car as long as I get pay 100 dollars. I`m going to buy one of those machine to was cars so I can give my customers the whole package. But I want to train on how to do it first.

**DetailingKing** · 03-14-2012, 01:54 PM

I don`t mind working for cheap as long as I get that 100 dollars daily for now. Later I might increase price or get more people to help me out.

With no training, what is your experience? Do you take care of your own cars? If you have a modicum of experience I would start out with folks you know. If you don`t I`d get it down on your own vehicles first.
