    I have about 8-people, that I wash there cars regularly, two to three times monthly, and I make about 1400extra monthly, is not bad, but I’m trying to get more people, the people cars I wash, live in my neighborhood!!!

    Thanks fro another informative video Luke. Extremely relevant since your last encouraging contact. FYI I did one detail of my rehab clinician’s car and I’ve now booked another 4 clients each wanting multiple cars fully detailed and then maintained. All your advice is now going to be put into practice aa I build my reputation, but as this is my ‘retire to’ plan I’m at capacity in 2 weeks!!!! Crazy

    thanks again for the great video. i brought my gf n her 17 yr old to help me with my 3 fleet vehicles, work trucks with welders on the back. so i can teach her son more or less the principles n methods without worrying too much about messing anything up. what i did with my client after watching your vieos and listening to you is i cut the price in half as long as he agreed on a detail for all 3 every 2 weeks. building a maintenance base and still making money. i still make the 360, but its every month not every3 months or so. thanks again

    Great video but was hoping to see what all you do in the interior for a maintenance cleaning, that is where I struggle and take WAY too long. Quick question....that wheel well dressing you used is a interior dressing, seems like it wouldnt last long in the wheel wellsl. Is there a reason to not just use tire shine in the wheel wells? I've been trying to figure out something good yet very economical to use in the wheel wells to make them look nice. (The stuff you used in this video is no longer available)
