In this insightful episode of The Off the Clock Show, we dive deep into how detailing shops can make the most of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. We discuss how important it is to plan early, emphasizing that a successful holiday promotion takes more than just last-minute discounts.

With tips on utilizing OrbisX’s advanced analytics, we show how digging into past stats can help tailor ads that truly resonate with customers. From identifying top services to analyzing sales trends, OrbisX offers the insights you need to create ads that hit the mark and maximize your return on investment.

We also break down the level of preparation required to ensure holiday ads are effective.

We explore the importance of well-crafted, tested messaging, and timing your ads for peak engagement, which can make a huge difference during the holiday rush.

To top it off, we share an outside-the-box example inspired by a contractor who brought in traffic through “see our process open houses.” By inviting customers to see your processes up close—whether it’s a demo on ceramic coating or an explanation of the detailing process step-by-step—you can create a memorable experience that builds trust, curiosity, and eventually, loyalty.

Open houses give potential clients a behind-the-scenes look, allowing them to see the care and expertise that goes into each service, helping to drive traffic to your business even after the holidays.Whether you’re looking to dominate Black Friday with a strategic ad campaign or build lasting connections through live demos, this episode has actionable advice to give your detailing business the holiday boost it needs!

Detailers, we’re back - and this time, we’re coming in hot with the most laughable reason someone objected to getting a ceramic coating (yeah, apparently, it’s connected to car theft in Canada’s crime capital - don’t ask). Then we get down to business - literally. Are you self-employed, or are you building an actual business? There's a difference, and we’re here to give you the hard truth. And if you think that’s all we’ve got, hold on tight. We’re taking a page out of Michelin’s playbook and showing you how creating a simple booklet can make your detailing shop the hottest thing on the block for new leads.Oh, and don’t miss Just the Tip - this one’s all about using that booklet to your full advantage (yeah, we went there). Time to shine, boys and girls.

Welcome back to another episode of The Off the Clock Show, where seasoned industry pros deliver edgy and informative content for automotive detailers. In this episode, we’re diving into how you can harness the power of the "devil's advocate" in your business to drive creativity forward. Instead of getting frustrated when your team pushes back on your ideas, understand that their feedback might just be the spark that leads to your next big breakthrough. Cookie-cutter businesses are where creativity goes to die—so lean into that friction and use it to fuel innovative solutions.

We also get real about facing fears and the pivotal moments that come with running a business. Drawing inspiration from the movie Soul, we explore the tough questions every business owner must ask: Are you still hungry to be a detailer? And if you are, how can you push even harder every day to stay passionate about your work? Sometimes, the dream isn’t what we thought it would be, and that’s when it’s time to pivot and find a new path that reignites your passion.

Join us for an episode packed with practical advice, honest reflections, and the no-nonsense insights you expect. Learn how to embrace challenges and push through to find creative solutions and renewed motivation in your business.
