This is a question for mobile or shop based detailers. How far are you or your customers traveling for your services?
I'm considering detailing part time because I enjoy it and for extra cash. My problem is my location. I live in a somewhat small town with 4 different larger cities about 30 minutes away. I would consider going mobile but some health issues cause me to frequent the restroom and would make detailing mobile very challenging.
Since mobile is out of the question lets talk about a fixed location.I have a garage at my home but it's rather small and really can only fit compact cars. Additionally my neighborhood is not exactly top notch. As an example the sheriff has been at my neighbors house the last 2 days "looking for someone".
Obvious answer is to move to a bigger city and nicer area but that's just not in the budget at the moment. The only thing I can come up with is to rent a small shop in my town where the price is cheap. But my concern is people would not travel here for my services. Sorry that's a lot of rambling. So what are your thoughts?
