Selepack Detailing Storefront
 
We're looking into opening up an actual location possibly in the next few months. Trying to get some feedback on the idea. More than likely it will be located in Summerville.

"it's like they PUT DIRT ON the car"

FWIW, I think it would do well


CACTUS is too far away for me to drive to after work, and i will NOT go to the mall area on weekends.

cactus should take ~45 minutes, whether good or (i would say ~5% of my washes have not been good)


and Splish Splash is a last resort. takes ~hour, ~50% of my washes have been bad (they vacuum at the start, then get it to clean interior)

YMMV, but I say DO IT.

it's much easier to do it, and live with failing, than to REGRET stuff.

do it.

do it need to find a place without ex-cons to clean my cars

If appointment only stuff, maybe a shop back off Peppermill Parkway (behind Stokes VW, across from Mazda).

I'd be much more likely to get the services done if it were mobile than driving all the way to Summerville.

x3. And its less overhead.

Matts94Z28 02-02-2012 06:02 PM

We will still be mobile. The offer that has been placed on the table is excellent, to say the least. We already make enough profit to cover the overhead witout a doubt. This location would not be a carwash, it would be a place to do the high end paint corrections and interior repair, by appointment of course.

Matts94Z28 02-02-2012 06:06 PM

The location itself should provide more exposure, theoretically. There will be more than one service offered as well.

However, I do agree the money is in mobile work, as people like the ease of not having to travel.

We have gotten to the point to where we need to take the next step and jump into this full time.

1998ta__1991rs 02-02-2012 06:35 PM

The Mobile side isnt going anywhere, and like matt said we're already making enough money to cover the overhead of the shop.

WWhittle 02-02-2012 07:07 PM

From what you described, this is probably a car stereo shop, probably does window tint too? If so, it sounds like a good idea.

none of the above, lol, but there is another automotive based business there

Trolley Road? The old Johnny's? or did you say Main Street (17A)?

Good idea, by the way.
