  • the opportunity of my life

    Hi again guys...First of all i would like to thank you once again for the great and useful information/advice that you have given me until now....
    I hope that you remember this guy with the Lamborghini...
    As i said before, this guy imports to Cyprus only this type of cars and he also has a company that installs clear bra on the cars(not only on the ones that he sells).
    So this guy is thinking of opening a new showroom and garage for those cars.
    The whole idea is to have there:
    1)his showroom,
    2)the garage for the service for those cars ONLY (Lambo, Ferrari, Porsche etc)
    3)the part of the bra installation
    4)a shop with accessories for those cars
    5)AND ME
    He asked me if i would like to rent a part of his place just to detail the cars before the bra's installation and also provide a full detailing on luxury cars(from a ''simple''car wash, to full detail,exterior,interior,engine wash etc etc)
    By moving there,IMO, it is a huge opportunity for me to be a very well known detailer.
    Also,always IMO, i think that those guys(the owners of that cars) will not mind paying more for a car wash,when they know that everything it is going to be clean (engine,wheels,paint,interior)+ waxing every 2-3 months.
    Also it will attract the owners of ''cheaper'' cars like BMW, AUDI etc etc... because if someone can detail a Lamborghini to perfection it will be OK to detail any car..(at least in Cyprus )
    In Cyprus it is matter of 'name'.If you have a good name,everybody will come and you can do anything you want with prices.
    So what do you think about that??Is it a good idea to move there??
    Thanks again!!!

    It sounds like a great opportunity. It all comes down to this; If you feel comfortable with this guy. The work will be there. If you believe this is your opportunity then go for it. Congrats. Best of luck.
    quality creates its own demand

        Its my goal to get into those kinda market. But, I'm too green and dont have enough courage to touch exotics. I get nightmares on burning through carbonfiber CC

        1st pardon me for the longish bla blas.

        Anyhow, I have to agree with J.A Michaels. If the oppurtunity is there well,go for it. But since you're gonna be in the high end market, perfection is a must IMHO. No sloppy jobs as your customer base are high end customers with a need for a top notch result (via top notch product- like MEGUIARS and service) and their expectation of quality is higher than normally would.. plus since its your name at stake (higher risk if its a small town where almost everybody knows everybody) well , do everything to ensure your rapport/image is not tarnished.

        Plus the partner that runs the garage, make sure you check him out 1st. Its kinda like a symbiotic r/ship. He falls then people will relate that failure to your business also (even its not your fault) . I experience this before in my previous company. Sad...

        I wish you all the best!

        Cheers,

        Timothy
