Welcome to the Pints and Polishing podcast hosted by Nick. In this episode, Nick shares an interesting experience with a new customer and delves into the topic of sales and dealing with challenging customers. The customer in question is the neighbor of someone Nick knows, and he wants to get his wife's Mercedes GLE 55 detailed. Nick explains that their company policy is to only take on new customers who join their maintenance program, rather than doing one-off details. However, after discussing the customer's requirements, they agree on a simplified service for a price of $300. Despite the initial agreement, the customer tries to negotiate a lower price of $150, claiming that the car is not in bad shape. Nick stands his ground and emphasizes the value of their service, educating the customer on the importance of maintaining the interior of a car for health reasons. Eventually, the customer agrees to the $300 price and commits to a weekly maintenance program. Nick reflects on the importance of putting in the work as a business owner and differentiates between hard work and putting in the necessary effort to ensure success. He shares a personal story about a detailer who achieved significant financial success in a short period but didn't find fulfillment in the work, leading Nick to advise him to pursue a regular job instead. Nick concludes by encouraging listeners to put in the work and educate themselves to achieve success in their detailing businesses.
