During the past ten months of 2005, I have kept a running log of commonly asked questions I get from all levels within the detail business and the question I am asked far more than any other is�
Should I go with a fixed detail location or should I build a mobile detailing business?
While there are countless articles, postings and threads on the subject, I feel few provide the needed details and unbiased knowledge that will provide the entrepreneur or prospective entrepreneur the depth and fact based specifics to make a sound decision. While the greatest numbers asking these questions come from those looking to start their own detail business, I am shocked on how confused many with years within the detailing profession are when it comes to taking action on such a large aspect of their business.
As we wind down 2005 and look to start a New Year, I along with a number of others within our profession that operate either fixed locations or mobile operations will provide the reader with a wealth of information that we believe will assist in allowing many to hear several different opinions to the mobile detailing vs. fixed location dilemma that seem to keep many up at night.
I have asked several individuals from within our industry for comments, input and statistics that will assist others within their decision-making. The individuals you will hear from are all from various points of the industry, many have years within their businesses, some are just ending their first full year in business while others are only a few months old and just starting their rookie year. A few of us with decades of experience not only within the detailing trade but business in general will also be sharing what directs us within our decisions to go with a fixed detail location or a mobile detailing business.
Each and every person taking part within this series does so because we desire to provide clear and accurate reality from our own prospective and experiences within the detailing industry. I am personally excited to be interacting with so many true professionals from within the ranks of our industry and over the course of the next eight weeks, each of us desire to assist you at missing many of the pot holes of business that we have already dealt with in our own detailing business.
Every couple weeks during the months of November and December we will post an article so be certain to stay tuned as we bring you this informative and interactive series. We are sure there is something for everybody to learn no matter where you are within your detailing venture.
