Well, I've been working on setting up an appointment with this guy for over a year now.
He's the brother in law of another buddy of mine.
Anyway, finally was able to set up an appointment with him today to get his Escalade done. It wasn't that bad except the paint is in horrible condition, swirls and scratches all over the place. But no polishing was to be done. He's getting a discount ($50 off my normal price with hopes of bringing me other cars) But after today I may end up doing a 1 step on it next time around.
My buddy kept telling me that I need to do my best work cause he's going to compare me to this other guy they had working for them. So, I took my time and made sure everything was perfect.
Owner came and didn't even really look at it when I was done...OK no problem.
Before I leave he books 3 more appointments with me to do his wife's Arcadia, his brother's Escalade, and his fathers cadillac sedan. Oh and his brother came in and book a separate appointment with me to do his Yukon Denali. Plus his father has 3 old cars (didn't say makes or models) which he wants done in the spring.
So needless to say I was pretty pumped when I left there. Nothing like having a family of car lovers who like to keep their vehicles clean. The guy told me that all together his family has about 30 vehicles that they will have done.
This is going to be a great account that will help keep me busy. I've already been way busier this year than I expected, and if I keep this up I may be hiring someone soon.
Just had to go off about this cause I was pumped and I knew the detailing world would understand!
Sorry for the rant and gloating! Just happy that my business is taking off this year!:buffing:
