The best advice that I can give is to produce a good quality business plan. Understand who your competitors are and find out the prices they charge, find out what services they offer, how professional they are. What can you offer that is different to them. Always place adverts in your local yellow pages. I would also understand how detailers forums work and join in with them to build awareness for your services and company, you can join this forum www.detailersforum.com I would also make sure you are a member of the FSB this way you save money on banking charges as you can open a bank account with the FSB and banking is free for life. It is also important to have insurance for yourself and your company, to cover you for any accidents that may happen when doing paint correction works, it is also important that you are a member of the The Detailers Association. I would also suggest that training is obtained, again visit www.detailertraining.com You must be very professional with everything you do and stand out from the rest, but above all, be polite and very helpful towards your customers and ask for referrals at all stages. I hope this helps. Richard Simon.

Can you offer me any start up advice and what pit falls to look out for. I look forward to your help. Cheers. Simon Richard

This sounds like a big challenge, I wish you well. You are a Gent, what sort of Charities are you doing this for, if you don't mind me asking. Good Luck Colin Richard.
