    Would like share my story and say thanks!

    I've been wanting to start my own business for a long time. The past year or two I've been trying to decide what business would work for me. Literally about a month ago, a coworker was telling me about how he used to detail cars in his spare time and made pretty good money. I thought to myself,

    "I enjoy detailing my own cars, could I make a business detailing others cars?"

    I ran the idea through my head and it wouldn't leave so I decided to do some research. The more I researched, the more the idea of having a mobile detailing business appealed to me. I couldn't think of a reason why I shouldn't try it.

    I decided to purchase a few basic products late night at wallmart and I ran across a guy in the isle who referred me to this forum.....

    And now the part about how much I appreciate you guys!! This site has taught me SO MUCH about detailing. I can't believe the level of experience of the members, the amount of people willing to answer questions, the attention people give in trying to solve questions, and the fact that it's free? Are you kidding? I would pay monthy for this....

    You guys have lit a fire in me, and I just can't thank you enough for what you guys do. I'm amazed at how much I have learned and how far I have come in just a month... I have this forum and it's members to thank for that. This forum is what made me decide that I want to not just "take a go" at detailing, but seriously try to become successful and make a living out of it. I still have a lot to learn, but as long as this forum is here, I will keep learning and continuing to push harder in becoming successful.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!

    Dug, Congrats on your New Business Venture & I wish you all the best. I would Highly suggest (if at all possible) you attend Mike's detailing classes Basic & Advanced. You will get so much useful information & be way ahead of the game (Business)!!! Also there's Robert @ Impressions Fine Automotive Detailing within 5 miles of AG, so you could see a Real World detailing shop & how it works.

    There is a ton of info here @ AG & alot of folk's who know their stuff. So your on the right track!!!

    All my Best
