We know that there are many choices for detail training. You have seen them on this page. With so many choices, it may be difficult to figure out who to choose or even who to call. We know you may be a bit overwhelmed with all the information that is out there. We also realize that the reason why you have even searched detail training, detailing seminars or a detail business opportunity may be because of the current economic situation and the need to do something different because of a job loss. This field may very well be totally foreign to you right now and you are just exploring the possibility of starting a detailing business. We want you to know that we can help you explore the possibility of a detailing career and welcome you to call and talk to us about it, and ask all the questions that you need to. There are no stupid questions when you are looking for information to see if this business opportunity is for you. We also want you to realize that we are NOT about high pressure and trying to sell you something. So we would welcome your call, right now, and we will be happy to discuss your fears, concerns, and anything else that may help you make a decision about starting a detailing business. So let me introduce myself. My name is Kevin Farrell and I am the owner of Kleen Car. Please feel free to call me anytime, toll free, at 888-302-6400 and I promise you will not get a sales pitch AT ALL
We are not going to give you fancy numbers claiming how much money you can make in the detailing business. We are not going to tell you that you will be rich by next Thursday either. We also know that you don't need to be told about the pride and satisfaction of owning your own business. There is no need to turn this into an infomercial. If we wanted to do an infomercial, we would hire Billy Mays and you would see us on TV. Detailing is hard work but very rewarding, and if a detailing business is run correctly and you know what you are doing, yes you can make a lot of money.
To detail cars you need passion, a great eye, a pursuit of perfection, a good business sense, and of course you must know what you are doing. We don't want you to fail. We have seen people enter into this business because a company sold them a bunch of products and equipment, gave them poor training or none at all. They thought that just because they had the needed products and equipment they would be a great detailer and make lots of money. It just does not work that way. We won't waste time trying to turn you into a business person. You may already be one. You may be a marketing genius, or a Wall Street Executive, and you may have run many successful businesses already. We do know however, that if you don't have the proper skills and training to actually detail a car, then you will fail no matter what your business skills are like. That brings me to what we do the best... We train people to become expert and skilled detailers...no matter what your current background is!!
Once you know that you have the passion to do this, either full time or part time, then we will take care of the rest. Now we hope you will read what we can do for you and why we think that we are the right choice for detailing training and helping you start your detail business.
The Kleen Car detail training program is truly the most technically oriented and comprehensive program in the industry. This is the exact same class that we developed for BMW of North America. We teach you the science behind every detailing operation. Our standing in the industry allows us to confer and partner with the leaders of various car manufacturers, paint companies, chemists, and product manufacturers to ensure we are always up to date and you receive the best training possible. We have authored dozens of articles over the years for leading automotive publications, and have spoken and presented at industry events. For a small sampling of our published articles, click here.
We are viewed as a true leader in the detail industry. We conduct ourselves a bit differently than some of the other programs. For one, we don't concentrate on marketing and sales. While it is important to market your business, you need to acquire the knowledge and skills, or the best marketing plan in the world will not work if you can't perform. We also do not rush students into an all "hands on" environment. Our class is a combination of classroom and hands-on instruction. You need the technical explanations on important subjects before jumping right in. To see the complete overview of our detailing class, click here.
We show you, and explain, the correct way to do everything, and coach you through the entire process. The proper technical explanations and proper coaching are critical for success. All the hands-on won't be worth much if the procedures are being performed incorrectly, or the student does not have the correct technical knowledge about the subject. This is a reason for many detailers having years of "experience" but never becoming an expert and a true all- star performer.
We also want to mention something that is often talked about by other detail training companies. Becoming a "certified detailer". Well, we will let you in on a little secret. There is no such thing in this industry! It's really cool to talk about it, but in reality we can't say you are a "certified detailer" when you complete our training. There is no governing body in the detail industry that regulates this. While most programs are good and you will learn something from anybody listed here, it's a little white lie to say you will be certified. While we think we have the best program out there, and BMW of North America would not have chosen us over 10 years ago to develop their detail training program if we weren't the best in their opinion, we just can't certify you. Nobody can. We will give you a certificate of completion that you can use however you like. But we just wanted to clear up that point for you before we go on.
Now you may also wonder what kind of products and equipment you will need to get started, and more importantly, what it will cost. We have had the privilege over the years to partner with some great companies and help develop some great products. We have helped develop buffing pads, we have helped develop some of the Optimum line of products, such as Optimum No Rinse, and Optimum Polish II which are revolutionizing the industry. We also sell and have helped develop a brand new steam machine which is a huge aid in detailing called the Vapor Chief. We can train you to become a true professional in the detailing business and give you the knowledge of what you will need to purchase to get going and what to look for in both products and equipment. If you decide to buy from us, we certainly will appreciate that, but in no way will we force you to purchase anything from us. But if you do, we can help you decide what you will need, and more importantly, WON'T need. We also have a fantastic lease to own program that helps finance your initial purchases to spread the payments out as you start your detailing business. See our great leasing program for more information.
We realize the decision to choose a training program is a difficult one, and you never know what, or who to believe. We hope you will choose a training facility not solely based on price or location, but what you will get out of the program. Remember, if you are serious about becoming a true detailing professional, your training will go a long way toward that goal. Our industry needs more true professionals so we wish you luck in your future business endeavors.
