You can name your different packages whatever you like. Some people go with,
The Platinum Package
The Gold Package
The Silver Package
Or
5 Star
4 Star
3 Star
Interesting.
I have 6 packages. 3 Basic Detailing ones and 3 more intesive ones.
Basic Detailing
Clean & Prep for Sale or Trade
New Vehicle Polish & Prep
Basic Polish & Protect
For sale cars typically are just a super thorough wash/decon with a spray wax and maybe a polisher used on certain areas or where needed. Otherwise, it's a quickie to help it sell. The latter two are very similar in time frame but on my New Car one I start with a coating as the LSP vs a One Step Traditional Sealant. Polishers are used on latter two.
Paint Correction
Premium Enhancement Polish
Elite Enhancement Correction
Signature Level Perfection
The first is essentially a polish, the Elite is a Compound and Polish as is the perfection package, only there I really lean into it to get to a full or perfect correction. I price it to also include coatings of glass, trim and wheels.
For me it's summed up by a matrix I put together showing the starting point of a vehicle's condition and where the customer wants to end. Often times I can get a full correction with a basic one step barring it's not a hard German paint that's totally marred up.

All good.
What I teach NEW guys - getting into this business is when they START they should at least have 3 packages.
Of course, a person can create as many as they like. I have 3 packages for exterior only detailing and on paper I have 3 packages for interior detailing but in practice, I really only have 1 package for interior detailing because if a car interior is so dirty that I don't want to do it I send it on down the road.
But of course, each person can tailor the number of packages and what each package includes to match their own personal preferences but to START off a new business - 3 packages works fine.

haha! I'm with you. I only offer two. Similar reasoning.
