Hello all. I'm Mitchell, the owner of Austin Elite Mobile Detailing or www.austinemd.com for short. 
I have been detailing for a few years now but have only been in business since the beginning of this year.
We are a 100% mobile company with a trailer (13hp Honda GX PW, 225 gal water tank, generator, air compressor, a couple of professional grade hose reels and a toolbox full of chemicals and towels).
I am a perfectionist when it comes to my work, but I'm also a businessman. I've seen posts on here from everything from the guy who washes his own car in his driveway to guys who take 19 and 23 hours to detail vehicles. I'm neither. I'm the guy who wants to offer a fair price, provide above expectation service and the one that, when I'm done, the client can't stop talking about to his friends. I want to do it well but I also want to do it in a timely fashion so that my business can grow.
My goal is to spend time doing something I love while at the same time growing a profitable business into more than just me and my trailer. At some point, I'm going to have to be able to stop detailing and hopefully have a big boy company out there when I do (I'm on the edge of 39 now). I love to detail vehicles. Wait, that's not 100% true. I really don't like "starting" a detail, but I love to finish them and even more so, I love the look on someones face when they see their vehicle looking better, inside and out, than it did the day they bought it. That's why I do this. I cater to people who, for lack of a better term can't "afford" to clean their own vehicles. By that, I mean, people that make more money by doing something else instead of doing their own detail.
Anyway, enough about us. Just wanted to say hello and I look forward to benefiting from some of your experiences.
Mitchell
