I use the car as an example to show them the results they can get from a detail. (This is only works for light paint correction. I'm not doing a full on detail you guys are probably referring to. But a finished product can help make the sale.)
Problem is pulling out a light and showing them doesnt affect their daily lifestyle. Also 90% of people out the difference either. If I had 30 seconds, I'd say something similar to what someone else had mentioned-- resale value. Get the car done when you decide to sell it, bring it to me. I'll take detailed pictures and you can use it for your for sale ad to get a couple more thousand dollars.
Me personally, i detailed a camery that was for sale for a couple months. After I detailed it took some after shots. The guy put it back up with my shots and sold it for $11.5k in a week vs his $10k he had up for a couple months. I cannot definitivley say that the detail got the car sold, but I can say there is a strong correlation, so I'd use that example.

How's that?
LMAO!!! That one cracked me up!! Almost saying, "Stupid is as is Stupid does!"
I recently pointed out to one of my clients in my main business (not detailing) that she had swirls in her car. She did not realize it until I showed her in the parking lot. It was a sunny day and there was no need to use a flashlight. She could clearly see it.
I let her know that whoever is taking care of her car has no clue on detailing the car.
She let me know that it was her gardener washing the car for extra $$.
Her $300,000 Custom Bentley Convertible with swirls...ouch!!!
All within 30 seconds.
DetailKitty one thing was for sure....I did not tell her she was a "Cheap-Ass"....LOL!!!!
As for whether she still uses him I would guess not!!

I hope you are not rehearsing for an elevator sales pitch or even worse a urinal call. No one appreciates either of those FWIW
