    National detail pros

    Has anyone ever done work through national detail pros?

    I got a phone call from them the other day. Basically they schedule appointments and keep a small percentage of the cost then I would go do the actual detail.

    Has anyone ever worked for this company or similar ones?

    They have called me before and I wasn't interested. IMO, it's a middle man that doesn't need to exist and complicates things.

    Could be useful if you are desperate for work but it just adds another person in the middle and more less cut for yourself.

    Nothing ventured.... nothing gained..... I wouldn't take it seriously but that doesn't mean I wouldn't spend some time evaluating the options and seeing what they send my way..... especially if work is slow.

    I agree I don't like the idea of having a middle man. I like to be able to talk to the customers to make the appointments and help them choose the best package.

    But then again another detail is another detail

    I'm defiantly going to give it a try. I'll keep everyone informed about how it goes though out this year

    I never signed up and they contacted me. I am guessing they do some research for the client that contacts them and then they contact you based on their location.

    But if you cant beat them, join them.. Rather still pick up the work rather than lose it. If you don't take the work, they'll just give it to someone else. I've done 12 for them this month.. Not bad money.

    Like i said in my last post, did 12 for them this month (and its January..) not bad. I think people that complain about it are just a little ignorant. Money is money baby! I like National Detail Pros personally, and obviously a lot of people do. Their facebook page has over 5000 some od likes.
