Just wanted some thought on this...
I originally offered the following services:
-Hand Wash
-Wash & Wax
-Single-step Correction (1 polishing step before wax/sealant)
-Multi-step Correction (2+ polishing steps)
-Concours Detail
-Special services (including interior, headlight polishing, wheel detailing, etc.)
These are very straightforward in that the names easily related to the service performed. 1-step was 1 polishing step, followed by wax/sealant, 2-step was the same but 2 polishing steps. Obviously both were preceded by wash, clay, prep.
New services: (Underlined services indicate names of services I want to change but don't know to what exactly yet)
-Hand Wash
-Wash & Wax (might change name)
-Mini Detail... a wash & wax with light clay included
-Complete Detail... Mini Detail + Interior
-XXX Detail... Complete Detail + 1-step polish, probably only an AIO with PC or a very light rotary combo
-Stage I Correction... 2-step correction meaning 2 polishing steps after paint prep and before wax/sealant
-Stage II Correction... 3+ polishing steps
-Concours Detail
For my new services, I figured I would offer correction at 2 stages and then a few services below that to encompass everything. This would eliminate 1-step correction because 1-step polishing usually focuses more on keeping the paint glossy and hologram free rather than removing too many defects, making it a light 'touch-up' rather than actual correction. I turned 1-step correction into the XXX Detail (trying to think of a good name) and that would obviously be between an actual 2-step correction (Stage I correction) and a wash, clay, wax + interior.
I still plan on leaving all the special services but might have interior included with everything from XXX Detail to Stage II Correction with the option of removing it.
The reason behind the change came from more and more clients requesting something more than a simple wash & wax but not full paint correction. On my singe step polishing work I would spend a long time properly breaking down polish and trying hard to remove as many defects as possible while still maintaining perfect paint surface, meaning without holograms or polish/pad induced swirls, many times having to do a 2-step on certain panels... this left me in a bind every time because I couldn't charge less for the service, losing a few clients who wanted the quick 1-step/AIO and also being stuck with a charge for a 1-step while doing a 2-step on 1/4-1/2 the car. Figured best would be to offer the AIO/quick 1-step.
Sooo, comments...
