First of all, I would like to give a big “Thank You” to Nick Vacco and all of his staff for hosting such an awesome 3 day Auto Detailing Training Craftsman Course at Detail King. This is proof that if you surround yourself with quality individuals, you will be on the right path towards a successful business.
Day one was awesome! If you have questions about how to properly and effectively market your business, pay close attention during day one, you’re not gonna want to miss this! I learned that it just doesn’t end with a good website, I need to go further and network throughout my community and beyond. The information learned in day one will help me find my target audience and figure out how my niches will fit with them.
Day two was a huge day for me. The anxiety that I had in regards to rotary polishers quickly went away with the guidance from the Detail King staff. Starting with the least aggressive approach first is key. Following this approach will give me the assurance that I will not damage my customers vehicle. The many little tips, tricks, and procedures that Detail King teaches, will help me complete my details at least 1/2 hour to 1 hour quicker while delivering a higher quality service. This could equate to completing 4-6 more details per month with my current capacity. Awesome!!
Day three was more of the same. I was eager to get my hands on some professional grade carpet extractors and air purging tools. I have to say that the Tornador Blow Gun and the Furzoff pet hair removal tool were the two biggest surprises for me. Those tools and the techniques I learned as I used them will save so much time on my interior details.
I was also eager to learn about “add on” services. Carpet dyeing, cigarette burn repair, headlight restoration, paint chip repair, the list goes on. As I grow my business and add in these services into my menu, I know the Detail King staff will be there to support me with those additions. All in all, this course was Awesome! I met a great bunch of fellow students that I look forward to talking to as our businesses grow in the future. This just adds to the networking potential.
I look forward to keeping in touch with Nick Vacco and his staff not only for technical support, but just to check in and see how things are going. Detail King really left me with a sense of family! Great people! Thanks again DK! You have changed my life!
