Mobile Tech Expo 2017 - Classes this year
Thursday January 19th is what is called,
Education Day
This is the primary day for educational classes. There will also be classes on Friday and Saturday but majority of classes are traditionally scheduled for Thursday and most of these won't repeat on Friday or Saturday.
So mark your schedule and make plans to be at the 2017 Mobil Tech Expo on THURSDAY.
Here's my tentative schedule for the 2017 Mobile Tech Expo. Most of these are BRAND NEW classes.
Thursday
1: The top 10 must have tools for starting and running a successful detailing business
Instructor - Mike Phillips
Room: Dade/Florida Keys
Time: 8:00-8:45am
Quality never costs money it makes money. Anyone starting a new detailing business needs a bare minimum of tools to get started. Mike Phillips from Autogeek presents his recommendations to get your business started out on the right path focusing on quality tools that won’t let you down.
2: How to use the Autogeek VIF App
Instructor - Mike Phillips
Room: Dade/Florida Keys
Time: 9:00-9:45am
The Vehicle Inspection App is the electronic version of Mike Phillips paper Vehicle Inspection form. This digital inspection form removes the paper from the process while providing multiple benefits besides protecting you and your business by identifying pre-existing issues inside and outside of the vehicle. Benefits include, doing inspections to protect yourself, doing estimates, documenting pre-existing issues with your cell phone or tablet camera, emailing your customer a copy of the work order, the ability to re-connect with customers, review past work orders and shop online.
3: Faster Processes. Superior Results. More Profit. Maximizing the BigFoot System for One-Step Corrections
Instructors - Jason Rose and Mike Phillips
Room: Dade/Florida Keys
Time: 10:00-10:45am
In the past detailers dedicated many hours and multiple steps to achieve the results their clients expect, but more often than professional detailers realize, full correction can be done with a one-step process. Saving time on the job and returning the vehicle back to your client faster means more money on your bottom line and a more successful business. The RUPES BigFoot polishing system is designed around the principles of efficient polishing, saving time, consuming less product, and ultimately delivering superior results. This class will center on the BigFoot system components and how you can maximize the selection of tools, compounds, and pads to achieve better results in less time by reducing steps.
4: How to use a hot water extractor and a steam cleaner
Instructor - Mike Phillips

Location
2017 Mobile Tech Expo will take place at,
DOUBLETREE BY HILTON - UNIVERSAL
5780 MAJOR BLVD.
ORLANDO, FL 32819
Just to note...
Thursday - I'll be there teaching a total of 8 classes. Pretty much all day as has been the norm for the last 6 years.
Friday - I'm schedule to teach 1 and possibly 2 classes for the IDA. Some of my other classes may repeat. Don't bank on it.
Saturday - Any classes I'm teaching are still to be announced. Best thing to do is attend my classes on Thursday.
Sunday - IDA Annual Board Meeting - No MTE show on Sunday
Anytime I'm not teaching a class I'll be at either the Autogeek booth or the IDA booth.
Besides myself, there will be a lot of other industry experts and industry leaders teaching classes and having booths where you can learn more about car detailing, paintless dent repair as well as a lot of other topics.
Here's the tentative schedule as of the date of this post... it will be updated so check often...

Looking forward to seeing you again as well as the hundreds of people that attend this event. I think I've been teaching classes here going on 6 yeas now.
I was the first guy to teach a class on the topic of damp sanding for the public back when Meguiar's Unigrit Discs were brand new. So it's been a good run.
Usually I have 6 classes each year on Thursday this year I have 8 classes and they are all going to be VERY educational.
Education day is packed with classes this year and there's no way a person can go to every class. So each person has to read what the topics are for the available classes and who the Instructors are and then figure out which classes they want to go to.
I always promise my class are both fun and educational.
Last year I had to leave the next day as we were filming an episode of Competition Ready in California. We're filming the week BEFORE MTE and the week AFTER MTE but I'll be at MTE for the entire weekend and of course Autogeek will have fully staffed booth and we'll have tons of tools, pads and products for people to by and normally there are super show specials!

At Mobile Tech the price of the classes are included in the Education Day price, and probably free on the other days.
For Mike's Competition Ready classes, check the 'Detailing Classes" link in the banner at the top of the page.
