What are your goals for your car wash for 2022? New lighting? Paint? More vacation time? Selling the whole thing?

I’ve worked hard for the last 20 years making sure everything works how I want it and improving energy efficiency. The hard work is finally paying off now because I have few breakdowns. The downside is that I get very bored without having a large project in progress or on the drawing board.
I intend to add more colored LED lights to compliment the existing Lighting on my Razors. People typically make favorable comments about the lights so adding more should bring more compliments and satisfied customers. I hope it helps differentiate my washes from the competition.
I’m also considering some new business opportunities and partnerships.

Eric - are you considering new business opportunities within the car wash? Like an additional profit center? Also, I am also the same way as in I need a big project to work on or a big goal.

i'm planning to do all the finishing touches on my remodel of my automatic wash. I am completing the signs for my entrance Archway. I would like to add another sign on the front of my wash that says car wash open 24 hours. I would like to build a small storage shed for my handtools and some car wash items. I should repave a section of my parking lot. I am closing on a five Plex apartment building with a commercial space that's currently set up as a beauty shop. That should keep me pretty busy, but what I really want to do Is sit around and watch the cars go in and out of my new razor carwash!

I'm trying to locate another property for a wash in a neighboring community but land prices are too high. I'm trying to convince my competitor to sell to me but that looks to be a VERY long time from now.

After 22 years of washing cars, that should read as "picking up after slobs", I'm feeling a little burnt out. I still love this business but I may be ready for a new challenge.
