    im starting a detailing business

    So as stated above im starting a mobile detailing business in my area. Right now im trying to figure out a name. Here are some ive came up with. I want your guys honest opinion on the names.

    All american mobile detailing
    Exclusive mobile detailing
    Fine touch mobile detailing
    BD mobile detailing (my first and last initials)
    Show time mobile detailing
    Show off mobile detailing
    A2Z mobile detailing
    Ultimate sheen mobile detailing

    here are some funny ones ive thought of just for the laugh that id never use.

    Mr. Miyagi mobile detailing "wax on wax off"
    Rub job mobile detailing "always a happy ending here"
    She wants the D (d as in detailing )

    im just starting out so my initial client base would be your average joe. However id like a name that would allow me to expand and do fleets, semi trucks, boats, motor cycles, and air craft and sound professional. Any opinions or ideas will help me. If you have heard of some catchy or good names or have one your self please share it. Im not going to try stealing the name it will just help me brain storm.

    Thanks guys

    In my opinion those names are way to long. Get rid of "mobile". Its not needed and if you ever get a shop your screwed.

    Make a list of running detailing business names and another list with industry words. Then start mixing a couple.

    This.

    If I had to choose from your list I'd go with All American Detailing or Fine Touch Detailing.

    Thanks for the advice. I think im liking A2Z Detailing what do you think?
    IMO it lets the prospective client know that i dont just do cars and that my service basically is applied to anything from a beat up car to a G6 jet.

    Yeah all american detailing is my second choice. The name is easy to remember and the logo would be pretty easy to create as i could shorten it to AA detailing.

    Re: im starting a detailing business

    Here's some quick steps on how I started mine just last year.

    -Choose name
    -Build website (I used weebly)
    -Build facebook, twitter, google+, istagram pages
    -Buy pre-paid flip phone
    -Buy company shirts
    -Buy business cards
    -Slowing buy all the tools/supplies
    -Prepare your mobile vehicle
    -Write all of your business info: business plan, invoices, price list, warranty, etc....
    -Get all the licenses: business, reseller's, fictious name, insurance, etc...

    This was a 6 month process while I was working full time installing clear bra for another company. I left on good terms with my old boss. So he still uses me as a 1099 contractor about 2-3 times every week!
