<h1>Start Your Own Auto Detailing Business from Home</h1>

An automobile detailing business gives the pride and
satisfaction of owning your own business. This profession requires
hard work but is very rewarding. Auto detailers wax and polish the
paint, chrome the wheels and clean the seats until the car shines
like a new vehicle.
There is considerable difference between full-time professional
automobile detailing and amateur detailing. Even the equipment is
different. Professional detailing businessmen take great care in
selecting supplies because they are consumed at a fast clip. They
also pay great attention to price and quality. This is the only way
they can beat competition.

Sales skills: You need to spend a lot of time
selling your services. Also you need to inspect the customer's car
in his/her presence and point out problems with paint, stains or
interiors, and offer to take care of them. This will not only make
your customers come back to you but also spread the good word. You
also need to promote your automobile detailing business through
fliers.
Another good business practice is to offer maintenance contracts
consisting of a weekly car wash and two waxes every month. This
will help you:
<ul>
<li>Get a nice check up front.</li>
<li>Have a steady customer</li>
<li>Be seen often in an area, which is good for business.</li>
</ul>
You can conduct a demonstration for the local car club members.
Snacks and drinks can be thrown in to make sure that they turn up
for demonstration. This may encourage several car owners to entrust
the car washing to you. Everyone likes a smart, clean vehicle; no
one, however, likes to spend hours cleaning it.

Start up costs: The automobile detailing business
is the perfect business for people with small budgets because it
can be started with a small investment. Also you may start with
detailing cars in the dealers' showrooms and then move to detailing
private cars.
A common way to start an automobile detailing business is to go
to customers' homes and workplaces in a truck, trailer or van and
clean their car at their location. You may use the local water
supply or carry your own. Working from a fixed site though, you may
offer better services. This may include pick and drop facility.
However, it is important that your own vehicle or your location
should look clean. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince
customers that you can make their cars look sparklingly clean and
new.
Big cities like Las Vegas, Houston, Atlanta or Los Angeles have
around 200 mobile detailers who wash five to ten cars per day,
charging $12 to $20 per car. Some may get more and may also make
good tips. Additionally, they may detail one or two cars at $60 to
$100. In places like Silicon Valley, Century City, Beverly Hills,
Malibu, Montecito, Newport Beach, Palm Springs, La Jolla, Laguna
Niguel or Rancho Santa Fe, you can even charge $120 to $250 for big
cars or SUVs.
The mobile detailers are not a big threat to full service car
washes or to long-running fixed site auto detailing businesses
because they enjoy strong referrals. Before starting you should
study the auto detailing business scene in your area. You must find
out the prices that are being charged, and the services that are
being offered.

Statistics to make you happy: There are over 100
million cars and trucks on the road, all of which need to be washed
regularly. People like to keep their cars for a long time and are
willing to get them washed regularly. The competition is low in
this business and there is enough opportunity for new entrepreneurs
to get in.
