Starting an Auto Detailing Business using Steam Cleaners

The auto detailing business is a huge opportunity for individuals looking to start a part-time business or those looking to venture into a full time business opportunity. The start up cost of starting a mobile detailing business is low and relatively simple to teach oneself how to operate. A mobile detailer can manage the cleaning of fleets for company cars, travel to people's homes, office buildings with big parking lots and many other opportunities. Depending on how extensive one plans to get you can charge from $50 - $200 to detail a car. Entrepreneurs who can provide good customer service and a great quality detailing can have tremendous opportunities.

The marketing of beginning an auto detailing business can be done at a very low cost. Simply put together a flier and you can go to office complex parking lots, shopping centers, malls and put fliers on windshields. If you don't have the time to do this yourself you can pay a student to do this for you. Make sure if you're paying someone to do this for you to do it on a commission basis. Have a coupon on the flier for a special and have the person handing out fliers put initials on the coupon. Pay the individual based on the number of calls to assure they're handing out the fliers by asking for the initials on the coupon. Another great way to get your new business out in the community is offer on a Saturday morning to assist at a school fundraiser that's having a car wash. Offer to do the car mats with your extractor for free and you'll get your company out in front of a ton of people who enjoy clean cars.

Choosing the right equipment is essential in detailing and a good carpet extractor can really assist in providing great quality cleans. There are many auto detailing extractors on the market. One of the best and most reasonably priced auto detailing extractors available is the Mytee 8070 Lite. They Mytee 8070 is a 3 gallon heated extractor that comes fully packaged to start cleaning immediately. The 8070 extractor is a compact easy to transport carpet extractor that can do everything that the bigger machines can do. The Mytee Lite has a 1000 watt in-line heater to provide hot water that will assist in breaking down the dirt quickly. The Mytee Extractor has nice large casters to move easily, has 100 PSI Pump to provide enough force to break up dirt, weighs only 40 pounds, comes with a 3" upholstery tool and can fit in the back of most cars.

Good marketing and solid equipment will help you get a great name in your community. The marketing can be started for under $50, machine for under $700 and supplies another $50. As your business grows you can expand into larger detailing machines that are also portable or built right into your truck.
