New to the game

My name is Tim and I live in Des Moines Iowa. I'm looking to open up a mobile carwash and detailing business and take this county by storm ! I'm doing ALOT of research right now and watching vidoes and preparing my business plan and compiling my tools and supplies list. I AM EXCITED about this opportunity to say the least! My plan is to go through training and certification before I open my doors in the Spring of 2014.
What do you do in the Winter and early Spring months?

Once you get regular customers you should have enough work to get through winter. Spring for me is when business starts to get crazy everyone wants their cars cleaned up at winter. I'm fortunate enough that I help another company do planes during the winter when I'm slow.

Hi Tim,

Welcome to AutogeekOnline!


To stay busy in the winter and spring months most business diversify and add other services to offer their customers,

Windshield repair
Window tinting
PDR or Paintless Dent Removal
Strong focus on interior detailing
Deodorizing
Headlight restoration


Those are a few off the top of my head...
