hey i'm not on facebook so this is my fun

When it's their own stuff, they treat it much different. One time a customer I knew locked his keys in his car. I lent him my car ( well-worn but nice Volvo XC90) to go home and get his spare key. He came racing back in the lot a half hour later with my stereo cranked to 11, raving about how...

The business owner is always the one who cares the most. We rinse the bays down and pick up the litter. We wrap the hoses just so and keep the foam brush in the holder. If it gets to me too much or customers push back too much I just think : "hey, I haven't had a price increase in awhile...

Right.... but you could wash your own car and look at the coverage, no?

There are about 6 million semi trucks on the road in the U.S. and about 300 million passenger cars. So, to begin, you have a relatively small customer base compared to car washes. Then, you will have the high cost of building improvements, site work and equipment. To my mind, the market is...

Mine is going to be a freestanding arch with the hard stop built into it.

Can you really price things to double your money if your cost goes up 50%. YES. You have to build c.o.g.s. increases into your price. On everything. My detail prices are up ( We charge $325-375 on average for a wash / wax / interior detail) from a few years ago. My old customers...

I'll post a picture of mine when it's in place.

First off; awesome looking wash!! I would put a 'hard stop' in after the clearance bar. I'm thinking a double 2"x 8" will do it. Why not protect your investment??? YES, if you have cameras and they smash your nice equipment you can 'go after' their insurance, file a police report, take up...

It doesn't really seem like that much work to keep the vendor maintained and stocked. You should price things so that you double your money. Pretty simple. I think of my vending machine as a store that's open 24 hours a day and doesn't require an employee to sell the products. I like the ability...

I think it would get a lot more use as a high-pressure function

Take out the metering tip that you have in there. Look at the color look at the chart that comes with the bag of injector tips and find the color that corresponds to the next smallest size and try that. Keep going down one tip at a time until you get soap that looks too weak in your opinion. In...

can the sonars be reprogrammed? my old ones on my siperior machine could be.

I have the cat 3535 pump, stainless steel floor stand, and production arch. lumenarch lights package too. package prices $14,16,18,20. Up from 10,12,13,15. Haven't exactly decided on package passes yet but $20 will be something no one else does, at least around here. At old pricing, 65% got...

Razor all the way! Differences? Not sure...I'd have to look at specs. Edge: https://www.washworldinc.com/touch-free/razor-edge/specs XR7: https://www.washworldinc.com/touch-free/razor-xr7/specs Here are the Belanger: KONDOR...

Well.....you must have used a lawyer when you bought your business. No? What about when you purchase land or buildings? What about refinancing a home or business? No lawyer involved then? How about setting up your business structure? Surely a lawyer is used to set an S Corp or LLC, right...

One idea is to do a soft opening first. No fan fare. Get up amd running and iron out any wrinkles. Then do a grand opening to hype it up. Free washes, some giveaways, food maybe. Advertise it first. Make it on Saturday with a rain date Sunday.

I've had the same great lawyer since I incorporated my business. What serious businessman doesn't have a lawter to help when needed? It's like not having an accountant. Besides there's nothing like a phone call from a serious attorney to make an insurance company quit stalling and start...

Looks pretty simple, but... Do I mount the MARS to the door of my ACW? Looks like it. Use the plug that is 'open' above the 'bill hole' to plug in MARS?? Unplug/ remove old validator? I did... Unplug/remove old stacker or leave it there but unplugged? Leave plugs for stacker and validator...

so.... is the machine going all the way back on the first pass and all following passes? and as far as wiping the sensor off that doesn't make any sense because a sonar works with sound waves, right? I can't see how some soap and water Would affect that.
