    He posts ads on CL and waits for calls. I've been helping him with his processes and such. He never smiles and is still in pain from his loss. Poor guy. I don't think he is a moron or a clown. I do what I can and I pray for him. I do my best not to judge other too harshly.
    I'm glad your helping him Joe , at least Lee is trying to make his own way and not collecting welfare.

    I see ads like this a lot and I think they probably could get a lot of calls because of the price. If they can make money it would be in volume. I would assume its not the best work but you never know.

    Personally I wouldn't charge anywhere near that low. If it costs me business I'm ok with it because it's probably someone who would expect more for their money than what they paid for

    Re: How NOT to make money detailing

    It doesn't surprise me that people are living in their van with the prices I've seen local CL detailers (< and I use that term reluctantly) charge. What's frustrating is that everyone thinks if they just under bid everybody else they'll end up with all the business. In reality all that happens is they last 6 months, go out of business and leave 1,000 more negative expierences for me to deal with

    Joe,

    Hook that dude up with a paypal account

    Wow, and here in my experience people are more apt to go with higher prices because they think they will get better services. I must be totally wrong!
