    Booked my first paying detail today

    So I opened for business today and booked my first appointment for Thursday & Saturday. I'm doing a wash and wax on Thursday and wash and interior detail Saturday. Wash and wax I'm charging $85 (no interior) and the wash and interior detail is booked at $125.
    Excited and hope to over deliver! This will be a good gauge of how much time it's gonna take me to do these packages and if my pricing is on par. Any advice?

    Congrats! Very reasonable prices! Not that it really matters, but what are the vehicles?

    I am in Hawaii so prices may be higher than what most can get. I based my prices after what I consider the competition in my area. I'm right in the middle of the three companies I'm emulating. One vehicle is a red 2012 Toyota Tacoma and the other is a grey-ish Honda CRV 2008. Looking forward to it.

    These prices sound reasonable to me. It sounds like some guys are getting hundreds of dollars to wash and wax a car

    Not bad pricing! Here i couldn't charge that for just a wash and wax but for a full detail i can get more than that..... not that it matters just how different economies can be!
