Pretty Good for my First Customer: Marketing Idea for Fellow Mobile Detailers

[JamesCs]

So I just very recently started a mobile detailing business while I'm in college and got my first customer(s). I emailed a local realtor agency about detailing their agents cars since the agents often have to drive their clients around. The lady that runs the agency agreed to have me do a basic wash and interior detail/vacuum for $25 a car (I know it seems like a low price but its fair for my market)

She also wants to have me come once or twice a month, if she and her employees like the work that I do the first time. At the moment I have no clue how many cars she wants me to detail on the first visit, so this could get interesting.

Just thought I would pass on the idea to everyone else on here, and I'm willing to send anyone a copy of the initial email that i sent the agency.

Get some business cards and menu cards made up and approach other businesses as well.

Can you inbox me the initial you sent? Thanks!

Congrats! Just remember she is looking for a wash and vac, not a detail where you find yourself taking too much time considering the pay.
Think of ways to produce an excellent result by being efficient. For example, use a shampoo that doesn't leave streaks on glass, just clean the interior plastics without conditioning, use a spray tire shine instead of using a brush, use that tire shine for door jamb plastics, etc
