Quality never costs money it makes money. Anyone starting a new detailing business needs a bare minimum of tools to get started. Mike Phillips from Autogeek presents his recommendations to get your business started out on the right path focusing on quality tools that won’t let you down.





2: Faster processes, superior results more profit - Maximizing the BigFoot System for one-step correction work
9:00am to 9:50am
Presented by Mike Phillips & Jason Rose
Autogeek.com & RUPES

Description
The RUPES BigFoot polishing system is designed around the principles of efficient polishing, saving time, consuming less product, and ultimately delivering superior results. This class will center on the BigFoot system components and how you can maximize the selection of tools, compounds, and pads to achieve better results in less time by reducing steps.





3: How to do both high quality Production Detailing and Show Car Detailing
10:00pm to 10:50pm
Presented by Mike Phillips & Bob Eichelberg
Autogeek.com & FLEX North America

Description
This class goes over the two primary types of exterior car detailing and one-step production detailing and/or multiple step show car detailing. When running a detailing business you need to have the knowledge and skill sets to offer both types of detailing in your business model in order to cater to the wide spectrum of customers’ needs and the various types of cars they own. New tools, pads and products introduced at SEMA in November will also be introduced and showcased.





4: How to become the recognized detailing expert in your hometown
11:00am to 11:50am
Presented by Mike Phillips
Autogeek.com

Description
Mike Phillips from Autogeek shares his secret technique for becoming the recognized detailing expert in your home town to help you build a top tier customer base of affluent car owners to maximize and sustain your profits. This class shows anyone step-by-step how to reach out to the high profile car enthusiasts in every town and city, coordinate to put on a presentation for their club and establish yourself as a knowledgeable expert that can be trusted with their prize possessions. This demographic group of people tends to be affluent with more disposable income and prefer to do business with the best-in-class businesses at the top, not the bottom of market options. This is the clientele a detailer wants to go after and cultivate.

Presented by Mike Phillips & Jeff McEachran
Autogeek.com & GYEON Quartz USA

Description
This class will separate the hype from reality when it comes to choosing and using the correct ceramic coating for your customer's needs as well as the application and usage of their vehicles. Not every customer or every car benefits from a ceramic coating but it's important to know when a coating is the best and the right match. Jeff and Mike will make it simple to choose and use the correct coating for every detailing project as well as how to educate your customers on the what, how and why for their needs and the needs of their cars.

Presented by Mike Phillips
Autogeek.com
4:00pm to 4:50pm
The Vehicle Inspection App is the electronic version of Mike Phillips’ paper Vehicle Inspection form. This digital inspection form removes the paper from the process while providing multiple benefits besides protecting you and your business by identifying pre-existing issues inside and outside of the vehicle. Benefits include, doing inspections to protect yourself, doing estimates, documenting pre-existing issues with your cell phone or tablet camera, emailing your customer a copy of the work order, the ability to re-connect with customers, review past work orders and shop online.

In the past you just grabbed a seat in the class you want to attend. Just an FYI, the Education Day is a additional fee, but includes lunch.
