Re: Creating a NICHE or not
If you have the mechanical skills, insurance, and proper tools......
A place where you can get oil changed, tires, wiper blades, filters, the basic stuff and a detail at the same time.....hells yea? Now time would be an issue possibly...or perhaps budget?
Offer say an a la carte menu?
Wash
Wash + wax (add clay treatment for say $)
Wash + wax + basic interior (vacuum, quick wipe down, windows)
Wash + wax + more in depth interior (above plus say clean center console, clean floor mats, protectant)
- headlight restoration
- spot scratch repair

My point exactly. They have carved out a specific niche and they are probably doing well. They are known as specialists

So true. I bet he known for Toyotas or the Toyota guy. He has definitely developed a niche
