Great Tips

Thanks so much!
Excellent video and good advice Best wishes Jess from🇨🇦🙏
Thank you!
Love yeah 🎉❤
By the way you and your family have a wonderful Christmas
I started in March of 2023!! It’s awesome to see someone else on this same journey
Love that! Congrats for starting, hope all is going great!
Hey great content , can you talk more about getting a insurance for a auto detail business
I’m no expert, but it’s mainly general liability insurance. You will then get a phone call from someone on behalf of the insurance company who will ask you some questions to determine your risk as a business and the insurance company will give you their rate and approve you or deny you based off of that information. But I just contacted my insurance agent and went from there 😃
Awesome vid and tips as always! What kind of insurance do you need for detailing? Is it costly?
Thank you! It is just General Liability Insurance. You will receive a phone call, most likely, from someone on behalf of the insurance company that will ask you questions on your business to asses your risk. The higher the risk, the more $$ the insurance, but it’s reasonable.
Hi there watched your video about your detail set up . Many of your viewers were asking about that pressure relief valve on your water tank set up and where to get one . The relief valve is called a Tee jet pressure relief valve. Just one question are you still using that pressure relief valve on you water tank set up and how is it holding up
Thank you! Yes, I am still using it and haven’t had any issues! 😃
since you also detail in florida what do your customers back home do while your away and vice versa when you go back home what are your customers in florida going to do
I’m seasonal back home and my clients know so. This is my first year in business so I can’t say being seasonal doesn’t impact business, but it just is what it is. They all just asked I tell them when I’m back north and open for business. As for Florida, I’m not trying to build a clientele down here. Most of my clients are snowbirds also so they don’t have roots here in FL.
Can you elaborate on your straightforward pricing? For example, all interior details cost $200?
Sure! I have three pricing tiers based upon vehicle sizing: 1. sedan 2. small/mid sized SUVs and trucks 3. oversized SUVs as vans and large SUVs. And I only offer a 3 packages; interior, interior & exterior, and interior & exterior with extraction. So if you have a sedan and you want the interior and exterior done, it’s $249. If you have a truck, it’s $269, and if you have a van, it’s $289. Same for everything else. Dog hair removal and sap removal are really my only main add-ons and those are an hourly rate which I can pretty accurately price at this point. Does that make sense?
social media content
I feel like a discount is better than starting off with just stupid low pricing right? At least recovery is built in
I would agree with that! Starting off with low prices makes it that much more difficult to raise them…a discount at least shows the value is there from the start.
What is the name of your website?
Due to the fact that I work by myself a majority of the time, I keep my contact and business information private from CZcams. While I love connecting with people via social media, people can get a bit weird and I just like to feel as safe as possible when going to work. I hope you can respect that.
Thats cool. I totally respect and understand that.@@DetailWithJess
What do you think about going "door to door", and just kinda.. sell yourself? Just small talk, along the lines: "hey, sup. I just moved into the area, im a mobile car detailer, if you ever need me, or will be interested hit me up" and give them card/leaflet. Is it too pushy?
Do people in your area still open their doors to talk to strangers?
@@d.2940 I don't know how it is in the US, but in the UK we do? I'm an adult 😂 just wanted to know if it's a good way of getting clients 🤷🏻♂️
It definitely works! Putting flyers on people’s cars in shopping areas work too! I worked in door-to-door sale and it’s just not for me, so I personally want nothing to do with it, but if it fits your personality, heck yeah!
Omg no paint correction? That’s like a $2000 job for a days work…
Maybe I’ll get there but I’m really not into it..at all!
Hi Jess,
After your last video in which you revealed you hired an employee, I went back. I watched your first video in which you discussed your planning, thought process, and considerations before you leap into mobile detailing. In the last video you posted, you did not discuss the systematic and important process of making a major decision to add an employee. I admit I was disappointed because I have noticed you always do a good job revealing "the method behind your madness." The last video for me fell flat because it seemed like you made an impulsive decision without an explanation. Now in this current video, you have your business hat on again explaining your methodic client acquisition strategy. So, why did you hire an employee without giving your viewers the inside into your thought process? It seems out of character for you.
I watch you from a business perspective, not how to detail an interior.
I hope you understand this is not criticizing, but just an observation.
@kylecolby8497 What is your point? That doesn't answer my question. Husbands just like anyone need to be factored into the cost of labor and ROI. Their time and labor are not free because they possibly using that time and labor to do something else to increase total income.
I appreciate the feedback and your following but I’m not here trying to give anyone business advice. I share what I do because I’m a oversharer and love to help people out in any way possible, but I’m not trying to build a detailing empire and I’m not here to tell anyone how to do so either. Nothing about my husband working with me was unplanned. It’s been in the plans since July. And neither of us are in FL trying to build up business, we’re just here on a 4 month vacation trying to make a couple bucks here and there while we learn what we can from a new situation…and I’m just simply sharing what I’m learning from the situation here on CZcams while in FL. My husband has a full time seasonal job and my real focus is my business in CT.
