    By the time i decided to go full time (side gig at first) i already had enough clients just from word of mouth. If your great at every aspect of the detail and know what your doing, people will literally sell your name to theyre friends and family and you will grow very fast! They tell me random people just look at theyre cars at a parking lot or something and ask them questions about how they got it too look so good and they give them my phone number. Ive never had to do any ads or anything at all just word of mouth, good luck to everyone 👍

      I have everything I need to start; a steamer, extractor, power washer, shop vac, microfiber clothes, gallons of APCs, degreasers, wheel cleaners, brushes. I don’t have a clay based bar or pad yet. Do you think it’s a good operation to run as a weekend side gig or would it be a waste of time to only allow myself the weekend or after work to do jobs? I know this is a very deep and subjective question due to lack of information, my skill set, the work I do full time, and the amount of customers.

      ​@@xsleezerx2083I think is better to start on weekends to family and friends, get the knowlage, get before and after pictures, tell them to recomend your service and if you can, maybe work on some days of the week if you have the time.

      @@xsleezerx2083 its never not bad to keep it as a side gig, aka only weekends. You will definitely make money, because if you think about it you can do 4 cars each day during the weekend and still be off pretty good considering it is just a side gig. Id say go with it, I'm in the same boat as you right now.

    Luke great video this is exactly the type of content Ive been hoping for out of you. Dont get me wrong many of your how to videos have quite literally carried me through the beginning but even from day one ive been hyper focused on where I want to be 5 years from now vs 1 week from now so thanks again and Im sure Im not the only detailer who is ready to start exploring things other than "detailing".

    I’ve been detailing for a few years now, but my business is still in the beginning stages because I don’t know lead generation. I hand out business cards and have social media pages for the business, but that’s it for advertising.

    • @degenrolls
      @degenrolls 26 днів тому +5

      I’m just getting into detailing but I’ve ran other businesses before, but for a single person company that’s a small startup, I think one of the biggest tools you can have is yourself. Don’t sell the business, sell yourself and your personality. Go out there, go door to door with flier and pens and just pitch to anyone that will listen. Make them feel connected, and once you book them try to make an even deeper connection so they keep coming back. I don’t think that online ads are bad at first, but I think going to door to door is definitely more important when you start out.

      Think outside the box... Offer small billboards at local body shops, auto repairs, car washes.. Anything to do with cars, but offer them a commission, not a flat rate.. Free marketing aimed at people with cars

      I have no affiliation whatsoever with him, and it may not be chique to point to another channel. But... since it isn't related Tot his channel, I feel a strong urge to point you to the content of Alex Hormozi. He also recently launched his second book ($100M leads). Hope that will help you, good luck!!

    Hola !! la forma mas REAL de crecer en el negocio de “detallado de autos” es siendo EXITOSO EN LA INDUSTRIA (conocimiento y habilidades) y de la mano !!,la mejor manera de VENDERTE,es como agente de ventas pero añadiendo que el producto es tu SERVICIO Y TU PERSONA !! eso es MEDULAR!!despues viene el “marketing “ pero de NADA te sirve el “marketing “ si no tienes lo PRIMERO !!

    Just ventured off into my own detailing business (full time), so I am very tempted to join the ad train to stand out. However, word of mouth has been the biggest advertisement/revenue generator for another business I operate. That being said, if a new detailer entered the arena, what type of lead generation would you recommend they follow?

  • @stefan-stocksmadesimple5241

    Would you say running paid ads in Facebook, Instagram etc. is the same as paying a marketing agency? Meaning, it's just as harmful and causes the problems you discussed in the video? 👍 Thanks

    Dude are you trying to apply for a job. Or try to sell a program? .because you are going way to technically for a beginner in car detailing business. Because most of the one i know of started it as a side/weekend thing to make some extra money. And the word of mouth. Started to get them to much work . I think what people really want to know is how to go from side work to business full time .
