[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to another episode of The Street Up Podcast.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm your host, Tux.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we are back in my hometown, New York.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, more, actually, Minty, flew me out to New York to make this happen.
[SPEAKER_01]: Dude, you've been killing it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, 100% from where you were.
[SPEAKER_01]: You guys know he was a close and a podcast as well.
[SPEAKER_01]: The first few episodes, of course, and the Street Alpha podcast was originally created with Mar, like I once A shot, I spoke to him about the idea and he was on board.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we obviously both grew not apart, but kind of doing different things, but I don't think, obviously you're in this massive shop now, I've as opposed to what you were in Freeport, and I moved to Florida, and the podcast has grown like 10 times of what it was when we first started
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm super proud of you, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm so proud of you.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm really, really happy that you're able to kind of accomplish all you've done already.
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: So on the last podcast, we spoke about your story, of course.
[SPEAKER_01]: And now I want to talk about how you were able to make this happen.
[SPEAKER_01]: And a lot of people were requested you back on the podcast because there's a lot of things that they want to know about how you run your business and how you're able to grow it to get to something like this today.
[SPEAKER_01]: And New York especially.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But before we begin, let's give it a round of applause for Mar of Minty Precision.
[SPEAKER_02]: not to tell the precision.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Good to be back.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So let's talk about the name change, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, because I don't know if it's like an illegal thing or something like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll talk about that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but yeah, Minty detailing is where your roots were.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's where you started.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what was the reason for like the Minty position name change?
[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, like in the detailing game, I feel like the next chapter is like bigger things like wrapping, ppf, start like custom car customization.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's kind of what I led towards.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I would look at minty detailing versus minty precision as minty precision is like the upgrade, the new version, the more mature way of going into detailing for me.
[SPEAKER_03]: I wanted detailing kind of calf meat at just cleaning.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to be more than that, you know what I'm saying.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that was the reason for the name change.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now does your location primarily dictate what kind of cars you're working on now?
[SPEAKER_01]: Was that changed because of your location?
[SPEAKER_01]: Or you felt like if you're going to open up another shop, you're going to work on higher-end clients and so on?
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean in the beginning, if you're usually my aim was like ppf, so usually people with higher-end cars would probably want that service.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I want to say it was but then once time kind of went I kind of understood like my customers and like what's really paying the bills I kind of have to navigate the business a little different.
[SPEAKER_03]: So what were you paying rent-wise in freeport freeport?
[SPEAKER_03]: I started off at 3200 every year when up 5% when I left there it was like 5,000 and some change
[SPEAKER_01]: So you were there for like what a couple years five years.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're there for five years.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's right.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm actually here One time flies.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm flying for five years.
[SPEAKER_01]: Wait, so when do we we twenty twenty one right when you weren't when you were Detoners.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because I opened during COVID So yeah, the next year damn.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, time flies.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, so you there five years.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you ended off at five thousand.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, now any shop that you get into right Let's say if you're doing detailing and you're starting a business.
[SPEAKER_01]: Is it always like that in New York with the rent always increases or
[SPEAKER_03]: I believe so.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it is, even when I signed this contract, it was, I think, a 3% increase.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Increase.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I think anywhere you do like a commercial leasing, increase every single year.
[SPEAKER_01]: What kind of services are you offering at the freeport location to be able to cover your rent?
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I was offering everything, everything, not even there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, everything, same things that I'm offering here, same things I was offering over here, which is what?
[SPEAKER_03]: P.P.F.
[SPEAKER_03]: Remrapear, Body Shop Repair, Details, Ceramic Code, etc.
[SPEAKER_03]: Window 1010.
[SPEAKER_03]: You let anything to make your car look better, I would like we was doing everything, wrapping cars, everything, and it was just so small there.
[SPEAKER_01]: What was the reason for doing all that?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because a lot of people think that if you have a business and you're doing a bunch of different things, you can't really excel in one and be the best at one thing because you're doing so many different things.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what it was, I felt like I was already the best at washing.
[SPEAKER_01]: You were, though.
[SPEAKER_01]: You still know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like the best at washing.
[SPEAKER_03]: So now what?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like now, how can I?
[SPEAKER_03]: I wanted the shop to be like a one stop shop where you can get everything done.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hey, Minty, my wheels are bent and I need 10s and I need a detail.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You could bring it car and we can do all that right there.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, so that's kind of was that was like my goal to be the one stop shop to get every service done a lot of services We don't do in hand obviously, but we can get it done for you.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't have to worry about the headache of getting it done I'd go on to another shop and go on to another shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can just come in and get everything done
[SPEAKER_03]: Did you ever think like maybe I should just do like a like a bigger Detailing shop and just only wash cars instead of offering a bunch of different services now Because there's so much money to be made when you have more services If I'm just doing detailing then I'm just making detailing money now if I could squeeze in some tents I'm making detailing and tint money, you know, so why not I offer like all the service you can possibly offer when it comes to like a vehicle
[SPEAKER_03]: The only thing I really don't do here is like mechanical work.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to get into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I probably do want to get into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you're going to get into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I probably would.
[SPEAKER_03]: And just do like simple things though, like old changes, breaks, stuff like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Imagine you can take your car to a shop, they will clean it, they'll do my old change, they'll change my brakes, and give me back my car the next day.
[SPEAKER_03]: That sounds like a dream.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't gotta go to all the zone up at boys.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't gotta go to the car wash after.
[SPEAKER_03]: You could come to one stop, one shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: We get everything done for you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so what are the downsides to having multiple services at a shop?
[SPEAKER_01]: Especially how many you're doing?
[SPEAKER_03]: I wanna say the downsides is like finding people so things that we cannot do in here.
[SPEAKER_03]: For example, body shop stuff like painting.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's dealing with people that,
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't have the same type of quality or as you so I feel like that would be kind of the only so like my subcontract work When I if I was to pay somebody else to do something for me.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want the same quality that we hold here
[SPEAKER_03]: you know, to be performed on the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I feel like the hardest thing would just be like finding good people to do good work.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the only issue.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really see with there's any other issues we haven't really ran into.
[SPEAKER_03]: It would just be like mistakes made like, you know, could have been corrected if you took pride in what you was doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know?
[SPEAKER_01]: So you recommend, and I don't know if it's like a New York thing or if it's just anything, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Any detailing business like in the country, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: The only reason I'm asking this question is because it's New York kind of expensive.
[SPEAKER_01]: When you could be in New York, you can be maybe in Miami or you can be in LA, but New York is obviously expensive.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you have to do things a little bit differently in order to cover the cost of your rent.
[SPEAKER_01]: So do you think that anybody who's doing detailing and they want to be able to pay their rent?
[SPEAKER_01]: That's something that they should do or is there another method to detailing that you'd be able to, you know, have the expenses covered?
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, that's, that's a hard, that's a tough question.
[SPEAKER_03]: And the reason why I say that is because now what we got right now, in the 2026, is every single body's detailing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody has a shop, everybody has, if you ever go to the Bronx, there's literally vents like down the block of mobile, like they just stay right there.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's detailing, I don't know, I don't know, for like people that have shops and that's open.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not sure really how people are really staying open, if that makes sense.
[SPEAKER_03]: You have to have been there for some time, like somebody that's starting off brand new, that's why I feel like it's even hard here, because the name change in the switch of the address is a brand new business and it's hard, because now you have to show these people.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're craft.
[SPEAKER_03]: You've got to show them that you know how to do these things.
[SPEAKER_03]: You've got to show them that you're professional.
[SPEAKER_03]: You've got to get their trust.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's tough to kind of do that over.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know about the detailing we're like here how shops stay open.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you really have to be doing multiple surfaces.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can't just be a detailing shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think I know a shop that's just washing cars and staying open.
[SPEAKER_03]: And if I do, it's a small shop.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, does that to be a shop or can it be like um, because you know, you see, like, like, certain gas stations or, oh, yeah, I'm saying a shop like a shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like a detailing shop, like a car wash shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: You probably like now starting that business is tough.
[SPEAKER_03]: The people that have it probably have like history.
[SPEAKER_03]: They've been open for a while.
[SPEAKER_03]: They have their solid lock customer's been at that location for a long time, you know.
[SPEAKER_01]: for the people who are in New York, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: What are you doing in winter months for a detailing winter?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because you have to diversify, of course, to stay open and obviously you have to be able to make money.
[SPEAKER_01]: What if you can't afford a shop and you're detailing cars, some of the time what happens in winter time in New York?
[SPEAKER_01]: Or any any any any any you have a shop?
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have a shop yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're starting your business off as a mobile detailing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe, yeah, correct.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, that stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what you guys doing to winter.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not a fan of mobile at all.
[SPEAKER_03]: You said you never did mobile stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: I did at freeport, but when I had the shop first.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I had the shop first and then probably like maybe three years into how to shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: I got the van.
[SPEAKER_03]: and then did mobile for a little bit, not too long.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, okay, so most people are probably starting mobile.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just a trend.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of like a thing, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you need to be able to a shop overhead, and everything is offensive.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it is.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, for those people, you don't do detailing in terms of a mobile.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So, why don't you go into that route or have it as an extra service as opposed to everything else you're doing?
[SPEAKER_03]: So, you're saying, like, add on mobile devices.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, why don't you add on to your budget name, but my name is very important.
[SPEAKER_03]: Having a mobile van is so easy to start up, so not easy, but it doesn't cost that much.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, you can then go, let's say, all right, for example, you're working for me, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: I hire you to do my mobile, I teach you everything you need to know, you learn your downpack.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I'm sending you by yourself to go do these jobs.
[SPEAKER_03]: After some time, you're going to think, hey, I know that this job costs $200.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're going to start doing the math, like $200, $300 damn, we made $1,000 a day.
[SPEAKER_03]: He made $1,000 a day.
[SPEAKER_03]: Having a mobile van, a van is like $3,000, the materials and everything that you need, it's probably like $5,000.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can get that money real quick, and then you own your own.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's like,
[SPEAKER_03]: That's why I'm just not with mobile.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, wait, so you're not with it because of what exactly?
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, you can teach somebody something and then send them on their way to go do mobile and then they learn the craft and then now they start the business on their own.
[SPEAKER_00]: okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: So now you're out of that person that you trust.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now if you are sending somebody out there in the streets, that's your name being represented by that person, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: He's doing all the work, he's doing it good, whatever whatever, now he has the courage to know.
[SPEAKER_03]: And the only reason why I'm saying this is what's happened to me twice.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: People were working with me.
[SPEAKER_03]: At my shop, and then we started doing mobile, they seen that, like, mobile was something that was attainable.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, they can do it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: They wanted up, learning some more, staying around, and then, y'all, you know, things are, I got a part ways, editor-in-chief, and now they have the own mobile business.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you think mobile is just for somebody who wants to get into detailing and that's like a good starting point.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's a great starting point.
[SPEAKER_01]: Great starting point.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what are some tips you can give to those people?
[SPEAKER_01]: Mobile wise.
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, that's not your thing, but you've already had experience with sending people out.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm sure you would have some idea.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like tips would be obviously if you know how to like wash cars already.
[SPEAKER_03]: And like you're jumping into mobile, I feel like presentation is key.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like your mobile van has to be nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: Try to make it as nice as possible, but don't cheap out, not the rusty dusty van, like get something decent, you know, save your money and actually get something decent because once you get the ball rolling with that, it's actually, you make good money with mobile.
[SPEAKER_03]: In the summer, for those people that's all year around like Florida and stuff like that, mobile, I'm pretty sure they're killing it out there.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's, yeah, it's really calm.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, New York is, you know, they only have like a season and then in the winter, you can't really do much.
[SPEAKER_03]: But definitely presentation, carry yourself like your business, like carry yourself professional, where you're brand, represent your brand, make these people remember you, know your brand, like they remember your color, they remember your logo, like go to them very professional.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I would always say like, learn your area, like where do you want to target when you're doing mobile?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like who are your clients that you want to get?
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you want to get the average people?
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you want to get high-end-clean people?
[SPEAKER_03]: Whatever you decide, where are they?
[SPEAKER_03]: Go find them, make yourself visible to them.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: And from there, your mobile is so easy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like people should, it's so easy if you, like that's your thing, like if you're only doing mobile, that is so easy because it's convenient for people.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like people don't have to lead their house.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can get it done right there in your driveway.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so easy.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just I feel like for the people that's really successful doing mobile is just the way they carry themselves like right now on 26 the amount of mobile events that I've seen that's like done up like TV's inside like people are taking it to that level you know what I'm saying so you got it you got to take it to that level you got to invest in yourself heavily.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, uh, for those mobile guys, um, you're saying that they should have the best marketing pretty much in order to get, because there's a lot of competition.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, there's a lot of competition.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so, what are the numbers for like detailing in terms of mobile?
[SPEAKER_01]: Is it separate from, like, a shop service?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Or, like, how far off is that?
[SPEAKER_01]: And what can you charge as a mobile retailer?
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, you got to think about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You got to pay, like, the customer has to pay for convenience, you know, that's actually a fee.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like getting a barber to come to the credit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So whatever, like for me, when I was doing mobile, at one point, like at the shop and mobile,
[SPEAKER_03]: We were charging like an extra 30 to $60 more per service depending on the car and depending on the service because You're paying for a convenience.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have to go there.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have to set up.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have to travel there.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's gas.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's time.
[SPEAKER_03]: So you got to pay for that
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, the average rate is for, like, uh, mobile phones, right now?
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's like 80 bucks right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: 80 bucks.
[SPEAKER_03]: 80 to 100 bucks depending on how much we should start.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not 50 or anything.
[SPEAKER_03]: Nah, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: $50.
[SPEAKER_03]: What am I traveling to?
[SPEAKER_03]: $50 for?
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, location doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, depending on how far you have to go.
[SPEAKER_01]: That doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, let's see if you had, you're, you're in Brooklyn.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see how to go like to Riverhead or something like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: If I was doing mobile out, only staying Brooklyn, only mobile for Brooklyn.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because a lot of thing about it, if you're mobile and you have to drive an hour or 45 minutes to somewhere to only make $50 to $80, the math don't make sense when you sit down and you do that at the end of the day because you spend half of that in gas.
[SPEAKER_01]: Unless you're doing multiple cars.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, if you do multiple cars, yeah, that'll make sense.
[SPEAKER_01]: Aside from that, what about materials, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: One of my, one of my pet peeves, and look, I'm not judging anybody, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: People start somewhere, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: But for me, I feel like it's not fair for me to pay certain amount of dollars for a detailing job.
[SPEAKER_01]: When you're just going to odos on and picking up off the shelf stuff, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: The good thing about you is that how you do stuff, you make your own stuff up.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know how you, I don't know what you use, we're not going to talk about that, of course.
[SPEAKER_01]: But every time I would get my car wash, it would come out different than anywhere else I went.
[SPEAKER_01]: Or the car would stay clean longer than other places.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, people who are starting is okay to use a stuff from like auto zone off the shelf and still charge those premiums for those prices.
[SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't say anyone that's using AutoZone, that's you learning still, you're still learning how to wash cars.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're using any, not any product, but if you're buying majority of your detailed materials from AutoZone, you're definitely beginning it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You should not be washing people's cars.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: You should be washing your friends cars only.
[SPEAKER_01]: But does AutoZone have good like detailing supplies?
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I get my tires showing from AutoZone.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, well, aside from tire shine, they got some shit and then you know, they got like a few chemical guys stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: They got some, that's a decent, that's what you know, like your starter pack.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't know where to go to get detailed stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: You go to auto zone.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Try out their stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because when it comes to detailing and products, there's so much different products.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's really just trying it and just seeing it if it works for you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's that comes when you learn it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you just have to learn.
[SPEAKER_03]: You have to start somewhere I would say go to auto zone.
[SPEAKER_01]: You never experimented and had like mixing things together.
[SPEAKER_03]: I already found what works for me, so I don't really need to experiment anymore.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so how did you find what works for you?
[SPEAKER_03]: Shalanaera.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: Shrying things, reading, going, reading what's in here, what makes a car shine.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like what are the chemicals that make a car shine?
[SPEAKER_03]: What's in there, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: And just seeing what products had that and how much of it is in there.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've got to learn your crap, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: You spraying shit on people, car learn what the fuck you're spraying on a car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like what is it?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like what would this do?
[SPEAKER_03]: if I spray it on a car for this long, or that long, what'll happen?
[SPEAKER_03]: And the thing about New York goes pretty lit is that we have guys that sell detailing stuff that literally will look for you, like on Google and type in detailing near me and they'll come to you and sell you like detailing things and they'll tell you like you're what it is, like if it's good, what it's good for, what it's not good for, so
[SPEAKER_01]: The biggest thing is, obviously, cutting down the cost, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm not sure if you can go somewhere else to buy all your supplies and get it for cheaper at a wholesale price, but if you're going to orders on it, it's easily accessible.
[SPEAKER_01]: You can just go to this store and pick it up, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: As opposed to ordering something online and waiting, because most people are kind of impatient when they're first starting and they want this shit right away.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's also a red flag too, if you impatient when you start it up,
[SPEAKER_03]: That's a red flag, you're going to go downhill because you've been inpatient and when it gets the chipset, you don't want to wait, it's Amazon Prime.
[SPEAKER_03]: We get shit two days.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can't wait another two days for the proper chemical.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't feel like any, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're trying to be that detailer, you're not going to auto zone.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're going to auto zone, if you're learning how to wash a car and you want to experiment a little bit and then get to learn, like, yo, what chemicals actually work, what chemicals are good,
[SPEAKER_03]: 2026.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still get DMs about the first podcast that we did.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I do too.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do too.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's like now we have chatGBT with like so much knowledge.
[SPEAKER_03]: I use it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I use it every day.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I feel like like now 2026.
[SPEAKER_03]: People that's trying to get into detailing the resources are literally there to learn what is it?
[SPEAKER_03]: What is good?
[SPEAKER_03]: What is bad?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you can literally learn it now.
[SPEAKER_03]: So easy.
[SPEAKER_03]: So so easy.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, all right, so you have this business, you have a mobile detailing business, you have your supplies, you have your truck, you have all that stuff, and so on, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Based on what you've already experienced, how much money do you think you have to be making in order for you to go into a shop?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's tough, and you know why, because I don't really know anyone that really went from a mobile detailing, and then have a shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: And the reason why I say that is because this is why I'm kind of like, anyone that wants to ever be in detailing, I feel like,
[SPEAKER_03]: If you think of the word, if you're being like, if you are a mobile detailer, right, your goal should be to own a shop one day, a detailed shop, right.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, if you're doing mobile once again, you're being you're more convenient for you, all of your clients.
[SPEAKER_03]: Just because you open a shop, that doesn't mean they're going to come to you.
[SPEAKER_03]: So how would you really know if you open up a shop that these people are still going to come to you?
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Because if your mobile guy is doing mobile, but he opened up a shop and now he's in Queens, you're going to find somebody else to watch a car.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, do you think that people open up a shop because like the flexing aspect of it on social media?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because that could be it too.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would probably feel much better knowing that I have an actual place so I could put my name on the wall.
[SPEAKER_01]: Rather than just like running around and having to go out there and do like all the manual labor and so on, me too.
[SPEAKER_01]: So do you think that a lot of people who are in this business are doing or are getting a shot because of, you know, the hype and the cloud behind it?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, definitely.
[SPEAKER_03]: The detailing, like, shop scene and detailing in New York really like when skyrocket, everybody have a damn shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't want to say it's a flex, but everybody got a shot.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really understand how these guys got a shot to be honest.
[SPEAKER_03]: Half of them out, something, I don't know how people be open.
[SPEAKER_03]: Some people I know they don't do good work, so I don't know, not in New York.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just saying like a lot of people in New York, too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, a lot of shots that can't say, but it's forgave you shit.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not the guy to point fingers, but
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, I really don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes I might even sit down on that question like, what are these guys doing to stay open?
[SPEAKER_03]: The work is not that good, but I don't know.
[SPEAKER_01]: So a big thing with you, what I noticed is, which, it's kind of like a second nature for you, but your attention to detail is like, on another level.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's because you notice things that most people won't.
[SPEAKER_01]: So for example, let's say if you're like,
[SPEAKER_01]: not in the detail aspect, but anything else.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you have a car that's getting tinted or something's off about it, you're not going to let that car leave the shop and something's wrong.
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's people who don't do good work that will, it's hard to say if they see it, or if they're just like, I don't have the time to mess with it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Nah, I feel like they see it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Just like they see it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like they see it, but it's just, sometimes it's just,
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know bro, like I just see something and I know for customers paying I just put myself in a customer's perspective like yo If I'm paying this amount of money and I pick up my car and I see this if I don't see how to fuck you don't see it You know if the customer sees it how and how you not see it you don't understand so it's like
[SPEAKER_03]: that's just always been my thing like you know you like how how people leave like make a car leave and it looks like it's like you did not care about what you was doing you just wanted that money and that's I don't operate like that at all you know you got up
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't get me wrong.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're not perfect.
[SPEAKER_03]: We sometimes, you, not see something, you know, which happens.
[SPEAKER_03]: It does happen.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it just also goes back on how you correct that a lot of these shops be.
[SPEAKER_03]: They'll argue with customers like, that's mad on professional at the end of the day.
[SPEAKER_03]: What they say, a customer is always right.
[SPEAKER_03]: Even if they're wrong and the shop owners are customers always right, we always got to do right by a customer doesn't matter what the fuck it is You know what I'm saying so I Really, I don't know What that one I don't know how these guys There's people who do Ceramic coding, right and I don't know if it's a scam or not, right, but I feel you could tell from you could say from your experience I feel like
[SPEAKER_01]: ceramic coating is like one of the biggest scams to me, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because some of these prices that are charged for this process are insane, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: You can damn near, probably wrap a car for some of the price that they're charging, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so it's ceramic coat a like a method that is worth it or like do you feel like it's just overhyped and overpriced?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah
[SPEAKER_03]: definitely overhyped and overpriced now.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, 100%, 110%, definitely.
[SPEAKER_03]: I see people doing paint correction in ceramic coating for like $400.
[SPEAKER_03]: $400?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's cheap, I was thinking more than that.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's cheap, but they're not doing a good work.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then people that's doing like that top level work is charging like $5,6,000.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, for that price, you can get your whole car PPS, which is like the better version of ceramic coating, the more durable, the more long lasting, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_00]: True, true, true, true, true.
[SPEAKER_03]: So like, I don't even understand why these people are charging like that price.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like our top price can go up to like 2,000.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, it really depends on the size and the amount of work that we have to go in the car, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: 2500.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, depending on the cars too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes people charge a lot like,
[SPEAKER_03]: for a service like ceramic coating and pink correction, if it's like the cars like very expensive.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Cause it's a liability.
[SPEAKER_03]: Have them have shop in the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: People that have that car don't mind of whatever the price, it costs to get that service done.
[SPEAKER_03]: So they are shops that literally target that car and charge that ticket and make that money.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's the goal, though.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the goal to get to that goal, too.
[SPEAKER_03]: do, you know, a brand new Lamborghini is not a lot of work to do a pink correction in ceramic.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a brand new car.
[SPEAKER_03]: You probably don't really have to do much work on correction.
[SPEAKER_03]: You really just ceramic code in the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: You charge in this person $8,9,000 for this.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I'm saying so.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the goal, but you gotta keep your lights on.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't knock nobody that's upcharging either, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't knock it bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: You gotta pay that rent.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that'll pay that rent that rent is due.
[SPEAKER_01]: So when it comes to the ceramic coating, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: I've always thought of my head and I'm not like I said, you're the professional here.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just this bottle that comes with a liquid.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm not sure what they charge for that, but obviously your rate would be different than if somebody else is trying to, sometimes you can't even purchase that as a customer.
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to buy it as a shop.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: get this liquid and you detail a car whatever and then you take this liquid and you smear it all over the car and then you have this water running off effect and obviously you can clean the car much easier after.
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that justifying the amount it costs for that service?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I don't feel like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, what is the hype about it?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I feel like it's, everybody here is where ceramic can just think, like, overall protection.
[SPEAKER_03]: My car is like, guard it is protected.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's nothing's going to happen to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It has not even what ceramic does.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm just really truly just make sure car easier to clean, keep your car cleaner longer.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what it does.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not no shield of, oh, I'm not going to get no rock chips.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to get scratches.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, you still get a scratch.
[SPEAKER_03]: You'll still get a rock chip.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what the hype is about P.P.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh, ceramic coating really.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's good for your car though.
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't get me wrong.
[SPEAKER_03]: Someone in that likes to keep their car clean.
[SPEAKER_03]: Often.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, definitely recommend you ceramic coat your car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Protect the paint too from swirls if you're going to hand wash your car 100%.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, ceramic coated is worth the investment because it lasts long to depending on what it is that you use now.
[SPEAKER_03]: The only, like, for customers that's paying for ceramic coding, I would ask for some knowledge, what type of ceramic coding are you using?
[SPEAKER_03]: How long does it last?
[SPEAKER_03]: Or you certified and being ceramic coding.
[SPEAKER_03]: Stuff like that would make me feel more comfortable, paying a ticket on something on a service like ceramic coding.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, when you do ceramic coat, you have to do a paint correction before?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, can you do a paint correction?
[SPEAKER_01]: Can you do a paint correction and not ceramic?
[SPEAKER_01]: After or you can.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can, but this, you can still get swirls like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: So ceramic kind of makes it where it's like not as easy for you to get swirls like that, depending on where you go.
[SPEAKER_03]: So hand wash your car.
[SPEAKER_03]: but it just makes the job easier to clean your car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Keeps like a perfect shine on your car for a lot longer, you know?
[SPEAKER_01]: So paint correction, I think you paint corrected might this for you.
[SPEAKER_01]: And the only reason I understand the pricing or why you would charge a good amount of money for that is because of how much work goes into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so the paint so a service like paint correction in ceramic coating the paint correction part is the more TDS the more it's not the ceramic ceramic.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so easy to you literally put it on Wait depending on the brand wait a couple seconds wipe it off, you know, make sure that you know the area is clean the rack is clean using the light no high spots.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but
[SPEAKER_03]: the real like craft of detailing goes into the pink correction part.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's really perfect in that paint to the best of its ability.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then the ceramic is like the seal of that to protect that.
[SPEAKER_03]: So like keep it keep that shine that you did already, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, the pink correction part is really, really, really important, really important because you have to do that.
[SPEAKER_03]: First, the pain has to be 100% before you seal it with ceramic.
[SPEAKER_01]: Some washers are like supplies, they have like ceramic in them, like is that the same thing that she would do with a ceramic coat or it's a different kind of, that's different.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like so there's like a spray that you can once you wash your car you can spray like rinks it off Yeah, yeah, and then you spray it on and it makes your car like hydrophobic That's not the same thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: It only lasts for like a couple There's one that lasts is for like a month a week at six months a month out of a out of a spray
[SPEAKER_03]: It turns on what you use, but even that for it to last, your pink has to be like, I would play by my car first, if I was somebody who's using that, like credit bar that, that's like the super duper cheapest option.
[SPEAKER_03]: But once again, your car's not pink corrected, it wasn't buffed, it wasn't polished.
[SPEAKER_03]: So you're just going to get whatever finish is on your car now, the swirls are still going to be there with those cheaper products that you just bring on the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now why is PPS so expensive the material the material the amount of time Is that's also like a very skilled craft okay?
[SPEAKER_03]: Very very skilled craft very you've got a patience to like do PPS It's it's very tedious Takes a lot of time you got to take a part a lot of parts do things the right way you got to take a part door handles Mirror stuff like that so it's gonna wrap in a car base.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
[SPEAKER_03]: sort of sort of yeah but more more tedious something gets caught in that material dust you got to do that panel all over again with rap you can lift it up you probably get it out of the rap you know people be charging like six six seven but bro it's worth it it's a hundred percent worth it
[SPEAKER_03]: because now you have, once again, people that are paying this money have a decent money into their car, like, you know, their cars are probably expensive or they genuinely care and keep their car.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just an investment that's on the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: It brings a value up on the car too.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's it?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, hi, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you, people that sell cars, they'll mention, hey, the cars fully ppft, whatever seat, and the car would be a little bit more expensive now, because it's ppft, and people that actually are looking for that car would look to see like, hey, is this car ppft already?
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because they don't have to spend the money on it.
[SPEAKER_03]: They don't have to spend the money on it.
[SPEAKER_01]: But they're going to pay something a little bit extra on the cost of a car.
[SPEAKER_03]: So like somebody that invests into their car and spend $6,000 in it's an investment.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because you're gonna that person is in a pay like yo, that car fully ppf.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't got to worry about doing it I'm gonna pick you get a hundred thousand all the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you driving it every day I don't want a ppf on it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have people like that Porsche the red one Yeah, I don't he said it's not ppf yet, but I thought it was we got it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I told him that he think it's just the lights But now that that color in the way it looks like yeah, that car was beautiful.
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was ppf though.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't know Maybe it's
[SPEAKER_03]: Because people just clear so like you would never really know if it's Pete like you can go up to a car and just use your nail If it's ever pp if I show you once you go because you got two car say that's pp Okay, and you can feel it which are nil is thick It's like thick.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's literally like a like a clear band aid on the
[SPEAKER_03]: Well sometimes I think you can see like on the on the seams like on the if you see it then I mean that's a bad job really Yeah, you're not supposed to be seeing ppf like obvious like oh shit that's ppf But like just seeing it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, if you see it then that means it was either already done to the car Like at the dealership like older cars But if okay something like no one you can see like oh it has cuts up like who the fuck did that?
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen so many, you're right actually, I'm thinking about the super, because on the super what they did was only half the hood or something like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like weird.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, yeah, they usually do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so you'll come like that factory.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you see the line.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I always on my head just automatically thought like, oh, maybe that's no.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like literally clear.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're not supposed to see it nowhere on the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Some parts, you know, you got a car, you might have to see a little, you know, a little bit of steam, but for the most part, you're not supposed to see it on a hood on the doors and stuff like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're not supposed to know it's there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Usually recommend doing the whole car or it doesn't depend obviously on the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: It depends on the person.
[SPEAKER_03]: You kind of got to pick that person out, know what they're comfortable spending.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like what does your go with the car, how long do you plan on keeping the car?
[SPEAKER_03]: What are you doing with the car?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like someone like you, I'll tell you,
[SPEAKER_03]: Only because you want to protect that paint that shine that car's going everywhere it's in shows It has to look the best Yeah, it has to be the best all the time Someone like our average Customers that live in Brooklyn that park their car in the street.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm telling them straight up like you don't need a pp of the whole car I would just peepe up the car pp f the front bumper.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe the front end depending on the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah front bumper back bumper back bumper people that are usually call us and ask the pp f
[SPEAKER_03]: and really like when I get I like to get into it like you're why do you want to pee pee up there so what do you want to pee pee from a car what do you want to pee pee if it for like they will kind of ask me like what do you recommend I'll ask them like what do you live do you park your car in the street is it in the garage how long do you plan on keeping your car it like what like what is the tell me about the car you know
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I forgot to ask you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you do you recommend ceramic coating wheels because I know we spoke about the ceramic I forgot to make the job easier.
[SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't hurt to slap some ceramic coating so yeah, I definitely recommend now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Would you recommend ceramic coating wheels over the car?
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I would rather do the car than the wheels really.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, of course.
[SPEAKER_01]: What about break this and stuff?
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't think it's easier to stick it that off get with rim cleaner
[SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't really, like, my paint is more important than my wheels and my dust.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm saying in terms of like, washing the car and so on, like, not protect, not from a protection to ask, but I mean, like, more of like a cleaning aspect, if you're washing your own car, ceramic code in the wheels to get the brake dust off or whatever, obviously when you're washing will be easier than I would say the whole car.
[SPEAKER_01]: So sometimes when you buy wheels, they'll offer that as a service, like, oh, we can also ceramic code the wheels, where we're shipping to you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but I wasn't sure if that was something that you like you for sure will recommend over doing the whole car I would usually people that come here and get the customer and go to a recommend just doing the wheels one time to Okay, yeah, so washing cars is still your number one service.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so what are you charging for car washes 80 80 that price went up or yeah What were you charging at the first spot 60?
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so what do you get with a dollar wash?
[SPEAKER_03]: Inside, get vacuumed, wipe down.
[SPEAKER_03]: We get real thorough like our maintenance washes are supposed to sell any other services.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because of how good our maintenance wash is, you can now that customer is always going to come back to you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Always going to come back because they see that you true your car with love and care.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's our goal here.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just to sell you off of maintenance wash.
[SPEAKER_03]: When you come back, now you want to do something else, or your friend,
[SPEAKER_03]: You tell your friend like, oh my car got washed here, your friend comes now, your friend has a nice car, your friend wants to do PPF.
[SPEAKER_03]: You just take those little jobs, those little jobs, those make big jobs all the time, you know, just build that relationship.
[SPEAKER_03]: But our bread and butter here is like interior details and maintenance washes, car wash and detail and period, you know, that's what's really keeping up, keeping us afloat.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what's your goal?
[SPEAKER_01]: What are your goals now for this new shop in terms of not like what the future is for it?
[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm talking about in terms of like how many washes you need to get as opposed to the last one.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not sure what your numbers were before.
[SPEAKER_01]: You probably spoke about it on the last podcast.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I did.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think you did.
[SPEAKER_01]: So how has that changed in this spot?
[SPEAKER_03]: So what a larger overhead bro, more cars is needed here.
[SPEAKER_03]: Our goal is pretty high, really really high.
[SPEAKER_03]: And going into 2026, it kind of changed our goals.
[SPEAKER_03]: How is right now the game plan of how we're gonna do it, but we do have a number like here I want to make like $1300 a day.
[SPEAKER_03]: Every single day, we open seven days a week.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, you know open 70s a week for seven days week we started off at six You know once again once you open a lot of chains had to been made bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: We open we started off six We was close on Sunday.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, we'll open on Sunday.
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll open.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah Damn, okay, so 1313, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like 1300.
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you feel that your location has affected your business?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah Definitely okay, so what made you want to follow through even though you felt that way?
[SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, bro, I just felt like I could do it, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really think too much of like the word like failure kind of doesn't really run in my brain like that, so like I just know like I just had a strong feeling about this like location to be honest.
[SPEAKER_03]: I really to be honest and fully truthful, bro, like I really just kind of
[SPEAKER_03]: Jumped without looking if that makes sense, you know, not really Learning I didn't learn this area.
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't know if there was any call washes in this area It was just like I found an area that I feel like can work for me I have enough space and I feel like I can take on the bill or I can have the challenge of paying the bill And that's kind of where I've been at for the last like six to eight months of being open to be truthful
[SPEAKER_03]: It was a big risk.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, very very big risk, but you know, no risk no reward, you know, that's facts You got to kind of put yourself in a position like what I would if I could go back in time and tell myself something it would be like
[SPEAKER_03]: Go learn that area to make sure that you can make money there like what's over there?
[SPEAKER_03]: What are people paying for what are the tickets on a car wash?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you can't just go in there and have a price when the people around the corner probably have a cheaper price.
[SPEAKER_03]: Learn your area.
[SPEAKER_03]: Learn your business way more.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, what you really have to make.
[SPEAKER_03]: to keep the doors open, how much customers you need to make, to keep the job or how much jobs, like learn all of that before you even get a shop, before you even start looking, you know what I'm saying like, if I could go back in time, that's what I would tell myself.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I was so young and being at free port like I was making good money, I was just living the life of a young guy making good money and just not really giving a fuck about the business aspect of the business, until I really got here and belt to ask, I'm paying $12,000 every month.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, and some months is harder than the next so it's like learning your business is like really key like knowing like your what the fuck I really got to do to keep these doors open how much money does it cost to keep these lights open These guys paid you know what I'm saying yeah really got to learn that that shit is really important
[SPEAKER_01]: So right now when well obviously you learn that right now I learned it but you're still doesn't you can't still do those things you can still obviously see what's in the area Yeah, it's going on.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we've done yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so do you feel like you're priced pretty competitive.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no, no, I'm good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm good when my right now price everything is perfect
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so what are you doing better than another detailer or another shop that's doing what you do?
[SPEAKER_03]: Customers service.
[SPEAKER_03]: Customers service is A when you come here, our spot is so nice, it kind of sells on its own.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then our work, like we over do our work, you know, we, we, customer jobs off, they call, we text them every day.
[SPEAKER_03]: with an update of their car.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know how like customers feel about that?
[SPEAKER_03]: You have to get a text.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hey, good morning.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is, for example, K and reaching out to you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hey, this is what I got up to on your car today.
[SPEAKER_03]: Here's pictures.
[SPEAKER_03]: Here we still aim to have your car ready at this time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, shops ain't doing that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Shopping.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: Come pick up your cars.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, we try to do it a little different here, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't even want to give out too much sauce than people take this up.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I just do it a little different.
[SPEAKER_03]: What I kind of like makes and with the business is like,
[SPEAKER_03]: I went to so much nice restaurants, and what makes me go back to that restaurant is how I was treated.
[SPEAKER_03]: If I'm treated like royalty, I'm gonna go back.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't give a fuck if the food was like, if the food was okay, I'll still go back.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just love this service.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I feel like that's what a lot of our clients here.
[SPEAKER_03]: They love the service.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying on top of that, the work is A1.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I always am always on my guys about being out.
[SPEAKER_03]: All the time, sometimes we even practice things, like I got our hood in the back over there, like we practice on wet sanding.
[SPEAKER_03]: all the time.
[SPEAKER_03]: We know how to wet.
[SPEAKER_03]: We know how to polish, but we still practice to make sure we always sharp.
[SPEAKER_03]: We always can get shit done.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes it's even fun to have the challenge of like, you know, can we get that out?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you feel like we can get that out?
[SPEAKER_03]: What can we really do to get that out?
[SPEAKER_03]: We really sit there and go back and forth with each other.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no, I feel like, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like it's just different here.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I just really
[SPEAKER_03]: sell different if it makes like you come here you say it just sells a little bit different versus anywhere else you know we're more than washing your car we're trying to build a connection with you we want a relationship with you we try our best to like talk to our clients how would you day going this year off a water you know all that people don't offer service like that like good good service
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you feel like coming into this location that you were basically, um, I mean, it's kind of common sense, but you feel like you were starting over from scratch.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So now with this service, because you're telling me this stuff, I'm thinking like, all right, cool, like obviously, you already had your client tell them, sure you stop people that come out to this new location.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But,
[SPEAKER_01]: Since you're providing such a great service, it just might take a little bit longer to kind of like get more customers through the customer service.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but what are you trying to do to get more customers in a door?
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's all for learning your business.
[SPEAKER_03]: So what we've been working on, we never, I never like pay for ads and stuff like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like that stuff is really, really good for your business.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like invest in money into ads.
[SPEAKER_03]: like so all it is that people just have to know about our service.
[SPEAKER_03]: You want more people to know the more they know the more they'll they'll inquire.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: So figure out a way to promote your business, get your business out there way more.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like make make your business more like seen.
[SPEAKER_03]: Remember to people like bro, there's times where we're slow here.
[SPEAKER_03]: and I have business cards.
[SPEAKER_03]: I walk and go leave business cards on every single card.
[SPEAKER_03]: I walk for blocks.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes I get on a bike.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes if it's slow here, the guys, yo, you take this stack, you take that stack, go up five blocks, give out those cards.
[SPEAKER_03]: Go up those five blocks, give out those cards.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do that so often, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: You really have to brain yourself.
[SPEAKER_03]: You have to brain yourself to stay open.
[SPEAKER_03]: People got to know who you are and what you do.
[SPEAKER_03]: And you got to show them.
[SPEAKER_03]: You got to make them remember you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: Put it in faces all the time.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what my girl told me.
[SPEAKER_04]: Make them remember that.
[SPEAKER_01]: How long do you think it's going to take for you to get to a level where you're like comfortable and, you know, kind of, um, taking care of rent without having to stress about it right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: So bro, any business that started from the beginning is usually the first, like here, it's was very hard.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I want to apply that first year to it's going to be hard.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I already did this in freeport.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, still struggling here, but I kind of know,
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I kind of understand the formula so I really want to say like going into this summer I'm not going to have this problem.
[SPEAKER_03]: This time next year I'm not going to have this problem.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I just need to just like a year for this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Going into next year now I have a plan.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now I know how to execute that plan.
[SPEAKER_03]: So now I'm just going to apply that plan and just keep working at that plan until like we get to that level which I want to say truthfully.
[SPEAKER_03]: Next year on this time like the shop would be booming right now like I feel like I'm the best Shopping Brooklyn.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not gonna lie to you.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really know anybody else Let him know let him know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like I'm really the best best looking shop best service shopping
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, obviously, I don't think I, in New York that, bro, look, I always believe in there's always somebody out there doing that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's 100%.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I can't say if there's another shop that's not as nice looking at this one.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's true.
[SPEAKER_01]: But those shops aren't really known, or they have the customers, or they have like a high clientele, and they always, you know, they have their numbers that they do the week, and it's it.
[SPEAKER_01]: But I can say that this shop has definitely got a ton of potential with how you set it up and what your vision was.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think it'll definitely get to that point for sure sooner than you think.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now one of the things that we were talking about the other day was, because you're telling me this stuff right now and I'm thinking like damn, like,
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody who just people that want to have a 95, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and a lot of people are always looking for other businesses or something to do to get out of the line of five and be entrepreneur and so But our conversation was like from for me, I'm going to just give you my little personal experience
[SPEAKER_01]: My girlfriend works at job, that's all she kind of knows, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So I've been trying to push her to kind of do her own thing on the side.
[SPEAKER_01]: For me, I never did well at jobs.
[SPEAKER_01]: I always did well at jobs.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've always excelled and I was always like a, like if I did retail, I was always a top seller.
[SPEAKER_01]: Or if I worked at a, I worked at lows for a couple of years, I always progressed fast and others because I wanted to do in those things and said it was my own business.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, now that I have my own business, I always have to figure shit out.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no matter what.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like my builds will be paid no matter what.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll figure it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: The level of stress and anxiety that I have to go through Obviously could be the same for somebody working on it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Five.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but I just deal with it differently.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like builds got to get paid how we gonna figure it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah That's it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't freak out.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't get stressed out and and you know, just get depressed about it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to figure it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: So for people who are working in a nine to five, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Those people don't have maybe any minute I have that mindset.
[SPEAKER_01]: But do you recommend like this kind of business for those people?
[SPEAKER_01]: A nine to five person?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, nine to five, like three.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: And the reason why I said it is because a nine to five person, like you know how much money you're going to get paid at the end of the week, because you get a check versus exactly the person that has a business,
[SPEAKER_03]: $2.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can have a whole bad week of weather and you know what I'm saying like I make no money That's now my job to figure it out at least with a nine to five like
[SPEAKER_03]: You know at the end of the month you're gonna make at the end of the week you're gonna get $600 You know, I know it probably not may have worked, but Is it yo this shit is different bro, and you know this like yo the stress that it could be is it's very I don't it's not for everyone at all So what would it take?
[SPEAKER_01]: for somebody, mind you, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with 95, there's a lot of people who genuinely enjoy their jobs and some people just don't, they don't want to work for themselves, like, or being entrepreneur, perfectly okay, but there are those people who do want to get out of that, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So what would you recommend for those people?
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you think it's more of something that you kind of have to be, maybe we're disabled?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you got to be born with that?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, is there something that triggered that mentality to not
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I kind of say you kind of got to be born with it to be honest.
[SPEAKER_03]: You kind of got to be born with it because that's such a big risk.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying and not everyone is able to do that or even think that.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, so I feel like, yeah, you definitely have to be born.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you don't feel like people can develop that kind of mindset.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can, but how serious are you going to take it?
[SPEAKER_03]: You know?
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no nine to five.
[SPEAKER_03]: You gotta figure that shit out.
[SPEAKER_03]: So how serious are you really like about this?
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Having a side hustle, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not everyone is willing to take that risk.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's definitely like a mindset thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you just have to be willing and ready just to take the risk.
[SPEAKER_03]: Some people fail and you know, that's the risk that they take.
[SPEAKER_03]: But gotta be, it's a mindset thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: You gotta be in you.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not in you.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't got it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And if you don't got it, I don't know if you can get it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It might take some time and it might take a lot of tweaks and a lot of fails but if it's not in you it's not in you and you'll know when it's in somebody like you can see it like it's obvious like you'll not this kid wants a little bit more than what what the world has given him you know what I'm saying so it just it just has to be in you you have to be a little bit more hungry than what what it is that you got you know
[SPEAKER_01]: Bestbacks.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's tough because like, for a while, I was kind of like struggling with that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because you want the best for the person that you love, of course, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Not saying that, again, working on the five is bad, but...
[SPEAKER_01]: There's always opportunity to make more money.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I love it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like, yo, working on it five, cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: But then also have something else you can do on a side.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, let me help you start a TikTok or figure this stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's what we were doing.
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's really hard to kind of transform somebody into entrepreneur.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, and it's not even like I consider myself entrepreneur or or anything like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's more like how I move In business or anything.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing to make money is a lot different than yeah, I'm not a five person.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah I feel like for entrepreneurs like someone Like what I would feel like for you is like let them see the struggles that you have to do it and can they deal with that struggles to
[SPEAKER_01]: That's true, too, but it's hard to even say how, because everybody takes things differently, like how they look at it, they don't understand it, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm also, it's kind of like a little bit deeper than that, but I'm also, I don't really voice how I feel a lot of the time, because for me, it's more of like an in my head thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because it's like, all right, cool, I'm not going to show that I'm upset or just talk about not having money or been broke or whatever it is.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying to figure out my head how to get the money that I need to pay my bills.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't really walk around.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's another thing too.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I don't, I don't let that ruin my vibe.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I always just, you know, Robert, you know what it is, bro, your character is very, it's just built for that.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it's built for that.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm cheaper now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Some people are literally just not built for it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you don't, you just don't got it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's hard to install that in them, but when they don't got it, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's super duper hard to do, super duper hard to do, you know?
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure there's people out there who are like, you know, trying to convert somebody into entrepreneur and so on.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, that's one thing I feel like is a challenge for me, you know, because you want the best for people and you know, you know what it is?
[SPEAKER_03]: You want the best for them, but do they want the best for themselves?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, that's back to you.
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's a potential thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's like damn, like you could...
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you know what money, you know what money, you know what money, you know what money, you know what money, I feel like that about Jay, I spoke about him in the last podcast and I'll always tell him like, you'll bro, you can do and be way more, you're literally putting the cap on yourself, and it's tough because
[SPEAKER_03]: I keep telling him it's like he's not understanding what I'm saying.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: As time go on, he eventually tells me like, oh, no, you'll now I see what you was saying that, but it's just time is like, you're I've been told you that I've been seen it, but I still get that too.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to lie.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still get that too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like people.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tell me about myself and I don't really see it like that and take some time for me to see it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's also a thing to probably just take some time to like get that craft.
[SPEAKER_03]: But like once you got it, you know, you got it, but it's probably takes some time to get it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like an awesome memory.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't really.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I feel like for you, I feel like you're kind of in that phase right now too, where you're kind of like,
[SPEAKER_01]: You're moving, you're moving differently, but for me it's like, I know you're going to figure it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just, you know, this is new to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So like, and it's a lot more, like a lot more than what you were doing before.
[SPEAKER_01]: So of course, you're, you're going to move differently and you've got to do things a lot of differently than before before.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also having staff is also important too.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, very important.
[SPEAKER_01]: So for me, like personally, like, you know, we got my god Jeremy here.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm planning on hiring him to mind you, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I actually want to talk about, finding the right people.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now this is actually good to have with this up.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the only reason, right, so I do like, I did a whole build series with a super, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like I've dropped the ball in it, because I didn't have a camera guy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was filming everything myself.
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, Jeremy did the first part, he helped me out with the first part as much as he could.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But the last two, I think it was last two parts I did,
[SPEAKER_01]: I lost out on the big opportunity of having it filmed the right way or having somebody with me.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I even should have hired somebody just to just to hold a camera or whatever.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so the only reason I don't have people work with me is because I don't trust anybody.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have helped.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've hired people that just do terrible work.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm not saying that they can't be good at what they're doing, but the problem is the charging prices for certain things that they shouldn't be charging for.
[SPEAKER_01]: And you get the work, you're not happy with it.
[SPEAKER_01]: So like, and then on top of that, you teach them, like you said, with the mobile detailing, you teach them something.
[SPEAKER_01]: They come around for one day to help out and all they want to do is on your camera settings or how you set stuff up and you never see them again, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So what are some of your methods right now as a detailer that you're like implementing into your business to find the right people?
[SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, bro, it's, I feel like I've been through so much bullshit guys, like, literally bullshit guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: Same thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: They want to come.
[SPEAKER_03]: They want to see what's going on here.
[SPEAKER_03]: They want to learn.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had a guy come made a whole page saw the post and I'll work on his page.
[SPEAKER_03]: All types of bullshit, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like,
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's so weird, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is, it is, it is, but I feel like when it really came down to it, it more became like a feeling like, yo, I feel like I, this person is going to last.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to be, and all of my workers, I have that feeling for.
[SPEAKER_03]: And all of them are, like, they're struggling just like, I am.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're all, we're the struggle team right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: And they're willing to struggle with us, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: Those are my guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: Those are the guys that I'm going to take care of.
[SPEAKER_01]: How are you finding these people, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like you have to be looking for somebody, like you said, who understands or not looking for an opportunity to make money for them.
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you want to pay people, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: But they're not looking for a money grab.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, okay, cool, this guy's got a business.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me go in there and do my thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I get paid and I'm going home, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you separate those people from people that you have that feeling with?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like how do you grow this stuff?
[SPEAKER_03]: It's really it starts with the hiring process.
[SPEAKER_03]: Once I meet you the way how you present yourself to me.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: The way how like okay now your professional I like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's a start.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, learning a little bit more about you like okay, we from we like who you know We heard how you heard about us.
[SPEAKER_03]: How do you what are you doing in life right now all of that all of that shows about that character And what it is what like what what they want you know why like why why you like why you hit me up?
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, oh, you want to work in I asked him that why do you want to work for me you want to learn this or you want to like stay here and grow here
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that should be like a question that yo you plan on growing in this business or you just coming here because you don't have a job right now, which one?
[SPEAKER_03]: And that would kind of tell you off the rip, what type of person you are.
[SPEAKER_03]: If they're willing to like, I want to stay here because I want to grow here.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I want to open up another shop and I want to be the owner of that shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Those are the type of people you let them to get stayed, you stay in here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the people that, yo, I'm not working right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just want to find something when you
[SPEAKER_03]: depending on like if you hire them like really for me it's like presentation like if you look clean you present yourself properly you talk with manners I fuck with your I give you a try and then once you're working your worth is it is different if you're hauling ass and I see that you're doing above and beyond oh you look like a keeper
[SPEAKER_03]: you could be a keeper.
[SPEAKER_03]: But if I see that you're willing to do the bare minimum every minute, you're just hiding, you're just looking around, you're not really doing nothing, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: You're a bullshit guy.
[SPEAKER_03]: You only had to make money, you're not really, you know, or you're here to just learn, I don't really give too far about you that much.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Versus my guys, that's literally hair and like you're there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Generally, trying to stay here and grow here, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: It takes time, though.
[SPEAKER_03]: It takes time, like I did a lot of hiring and firing, but it just takes time to find them right, people, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, you just, for you, I would say, like, get to know your person, like, the person that you're trusting, which you're, like, get to know them a little bit, like, beyond me, you being my employee, tell me about yourself, tell me about you, how you was raised, where you was going now, what, tell me about what's your goals?
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, what are you on accomplish?
[SPEAKER_03]: that says a loan about the type of character that you're going to choose to grow with.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't ask facts.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you've had a lot of people that lied to you, too, in the process.
[SPEAKER_03]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, man, I'm trying to be a manager of top manager here, of course, but I can tell the bullshit.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: And my job, bro, I'm the owner.
[SPEAKER_03]: My job is to hire people to work as long as you can get the work done.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really give a fuck, but then once you start moving
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you're interrupting our work, then you got to go.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you're a workflow, then you got to go.
[SPEAKER_03]: This people that combo, all bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit.
[SPEAKER_03]: They tell you and sell you a dream blow bullshit, but I don't that shit goes in one air out the next.
[SPEAKER_00]: But you can tell.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you can tell.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you literally can tell, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: I can tell.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can tell a bullshit guy.
[SPEAKER_03]: As soon as you start talking, you're a bullshit guy.
[SPEAKER_03]: In my head, like you're a bullshit guy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't even want to risk trying like you're a bullshit guy.
[SPEAKER_01]: I can see it and even so there have So there have been some guys who've slipped you know through and they got the job and they were like Yeah, I had a guy here that we was trying out.
[SPEAKER_03]: He wanted to do some work here He wanted to run out one space here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay
[SPEAKER_03]: And that, I don't know, that should didn't work out properly.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like he's just winding business doesn't work.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because he did like rapping in whatever, and he wanted space here to like work.
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess he, you know, his shop closed down, he wanted space to work and, you know, gave him space and whatever, but I don't believe in like enter winding businesses.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that didn't work.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'll say, so when you say inner 20 businesses, you mean like renting out your shop and then having another business ran out of the shop, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Which is pretty common.
[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, I've been asking you about that because that's a good way to kind of bring some more money and so you can pay the overhead.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But you don't clearly believe in that now because of your experience.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Happen like what twice.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really fuck with it.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I know some other shops, and then I had like two, I'm not gonna say the name of the course, but where it was at the same thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like people would go in there, they would abuse a place, and they would either do things after not supposed to be doing there.
[SPEAKER_01]: For example, it's not a paint shop, they're painting in the shop, getting over spraying with a car.
[SPEAKER_01]: or like having people in there drinking sometimes doing party like all these things that they should not be doing and a lot of these people that I From the situation I'm talking about they weren't even paying a lot of money So they already had a great advantage.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like y'all you're not paying much here like respect to space.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah I mean, so and then those people end up going to their own shop Yeah, of course who knows what they're doing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so it's pretty common, honestly, that a lot of people rent out spaces and get into this situation, um, but it's kind of one of those things where it's like, I got to pin my bills.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, how we know how we're talking about figuring it out, that's one of the things where it's like, it's last resort.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, damn, like, I really don't want to, but kind of need the money to, to pay the overhead in so long.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, obviously you don't recommend that, but let's say if that was happening, what are some things that you can kind of do to make sure that those things are working together?
[SPEAKER_01]: The two businesses.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I feel like it's really like clean cut understanding.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you have to understand.
[SPEAKER_03]: Contracts may be or something like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah, like a contract.
[SPEAKER_03]: Even beyond a contract, like literally, you know, this is how shit is going to be ran.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, if it's not ran the way you wanted to be ran, they added it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You feel me, it's not worth the headache, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like people that like shop owners, that's like renting out space, like be very, very clear on what that space is for, what that person is there for, that's, that's what your space, that's what you're here to do, that's it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Anything beyond that, you're abusing the space.
[SPEAKER_03]: your text disrespecting me and taking advantage of my space now you have to get out of space you know what I'm saying so it's tough but literally that like yo have a clear understanding whoever's renting out your shop like yo this is what you're gonna do because it's what you told me we want to do these are the times that you said you want to operate this is the money that's it there's no this is not a party type of vibe this is not a
[SPEAKER_03]: You're a friend.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, this is not that.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is work.
[SPEAKER_03]: This way.
[SPEAKER_03]: He had to work.
[SPEAKER_03]: You want to do all that other shit.
[SPEAKER_03]: Go to your crib.
[SPEAKER_03]: Go to your man's block.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_01]: This person was doing completely separate business from your stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Were you ever having this person do any of the work for your shop or was completely separate?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like do you mean like that far apart?
[SPEAKER_01]: Or you guys are still working together here and there with that person just renting a space.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like he was working together here and there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really think he did too much work with me like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, it's like being in your house and you have two niggas, I have two guys, I have two guys living in the same house.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, you guys are going to like, this is your house.
[SPEAKER_03]: You build this house.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is my house for someone to like come into my house and that's always tell the guys because even the guys got a little bit uncomfortable every now and then about certain situations where they was overstepping.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I just don't like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I don't want, if we're going to work together and be here, like once again, need to have a clear understanding of what we are goals is to come here and make money, but we also need to respect the space and the person that owns the space.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because you don't have to be here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, we're still going to make our money if you're here or not.
[SPEAKER_03]: Obviously, you're being here helps us, but we have a standard, you know, if you're not meeting our standard, like when our customers are coming,
[SPEAKER_03]: like our customers are coming.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have to hold that standard very high still like this shouldn't be any bullshit going on.
[SPEAKER_03]: like at your space, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you're supposed to be working they're not the customer see bullshitting or drinking or talking like that's not the type of business we're running here, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you think a lot of people are doing it?
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I think I asked you that already but they're doing it for like the cloud obviously.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I feel like everybody just want to open up a shop right now, especially like New York from when I don't really pay attention like any other states like that, but New York for sure, I feel like it's a little hype.
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody want to just open up a shop or just
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody's trying to make money to be honest.
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, I just saw it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Actually, I really try to just make money, but I guess it's opening up a shop, like a person feel like opening up a shop is going to make you money, but it comes with a lot to do to make that money, you know, and people don't understand that part.
[SPEAKER_03]: They don't understand like, oh,
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you go open up a shop, but it's way more harder the things that you have to do is remember time could sum in for the things you have to do to even make your business operate.
[SPEAKER_03]: You have to make a website.
[SPEAKER_03]: You have to design, you're going to pay somebody to make a website.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I do it.
[SPEAKER_01]: That is people you're doing now.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're not paying.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're not doing a website, I doubt it's a professional though.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know, but again, it's more of a cloud thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like people do that to show people, like, oh, look, I'm moving up now.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing big things.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's really what old is this like, okay?
[SPEAKER_01]: But you never even hear about if they close or not, because they're not even doing anything, like, show that they're active, you know, and whatever business is going on.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why would you ever go, like, why would you do that to yourself?
[SPEAKER_03]: like cloud bro people people will do anything to to prove some kind of a problem and not even proven the point but like they're just trying to make it seem like they're successful or they're getting somewhere and it's like great line to yourself you're any self-authentic yeah i think you're doing it for anyone else like if once you're doing it for yourself yeah you want to stay in business if you're doing it for there's so much shit that goes i feel like there's so much of a flex that i can show here but i just don't for what i don't need to show a flex
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like people do that all the time.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know why.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like my normal lifestyle.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like what I do in a normal day, I feel like there's enough flex for like people that's watching me.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't need like, I don't know why people are like, somebody will get a shop and this is actually not it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not and I'm sitting down and thinking about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's actually people that I know that open up a shop and it's not open no more.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I felt like they just kind of did it because it was in style or it was popping.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll look at your ass.
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't even be in style or popping roll it's kind of a pain you know rent overhead and stuff like that Like you still that's kind of that bills do every month, right is so it's like jumping to business thinking that you don't want some doors There's open you gonna make that money
[SPEAKER_01]: you know what it is to and this is this is kind of like it's little scary to me, but sometimes people think because you have a following that you can sell things, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So like it may be harder for some people to sell merch or tickets to an event, like it doesn't always work that way,
[SPEAKER_01]: with a shop.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that when people go on social media, they open up a shop and say, hey, I just open up a shop.
[SPEAKER_01]: They think that the world is going to see it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then people are going to come in the door and they're going to be like being, you know, make all this money and then they're going to be able to pay the rent.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so on.
[SPEAKER_01]: But it doesn't work like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I don't at all.
[SPEAKER_01]: Not one.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm just speaking
[SPEAKER_01]: from experience because I literally don't work like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I have a brand and my expectations are always in the beginning and they were always higher than what they were.
[SPEAKER_01]: And mind you, I think I did pretty well selling merch and so on, but there's sometimes where like even now, like it's not the same as it was before.
[SPEAKER_01]: And honestly it's more so my my lazy marketing more so yeah because I'm so busy yeah but for the most part like I just sometimes I have to humble myself and say like not bro like just because you have a following doesn't mean that you're going to sit here and sell a thousand you know thousands of t-shirts and so on you gotta put the work and just like somebody else is starting out you know and most people will kind of overlook those things and they think that just because they're putting their face on social media and they're marketing these things at the world is going to see it yeah that's not how we're
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just my experience.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's probably not how it works either.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sadly.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Just because you have a father and I don't mean shit, you know.
[SPEAKER_03]: That doesn't mean that everyone is going to come to you now.
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't necessarily have followers either sometimes.
[SPEAKER_01]: Most of these people don't even have followers sometimes.
[SPEAKER_03]: That should don't mean nothing, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, it kind of does, but it doesn't.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you know.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're not going to, it's not going to keep your rent paid?
[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not going to keep your rent paid.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's once again understanding your service, what service are you providing?
[SPEAKER_03]: Can you provide it in that area?
[SPEAKER_03]: Are people going to pay?
[SPEAKER_03]: What are people paying in this area?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what you really got to look at when you open in the shop even merch like okay, I'm gonna sew merch Where am I gonna sew this merch to who's gonna find this merch?
[SPEAKER_03]: Right where am I showing this merch to the more people that see my merch or the more people that are potentially could buy it right you know So what can I do to get this shit out you did you have merch?
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not sure.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think we had this conversation in the last podcast.
[SPEAKER_01]: Bro, but you know what it is?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it's not, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, you see.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're selling yourself short, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: No.
[SPEAKER_01]: You can have merch in here.
[SPEAKER_01]: People are sitting in a waiting area.
[SPEAKER_01]: Just have, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: Put like a little rack up or something with like a couple of designs.
[SPEAKER_01]: Leave it there.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then put like a sign there or something.
[SPEAKER_01]: make it look like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: As easy as you make in a scene.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not it's not about look.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying that you're going to sell racks and down.
[SPEAKER_01]: But if you saw a couple shirts every now and then like what's that's extra money is coming in.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's good.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to get that.
[SPEAKER_01]: That shirt could be if you sell three shirts in a day, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: You saw them at 20 bucks.
[SPEAKER_01]: Depending on how much you get the shirts for, that's potentially close to one wash. Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it it's something.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Bro, there's so much like little things that I want to implement.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just, you know, being at this new location, everything is not up and running.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, everything is not up to where like where I want it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's an idea, though.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, bro, merch, all that products, all that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to do all that, but it's just not there yet.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, it's going to get there.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's not there yet.
[SPEAKER_03]: I definitely believe in like merchant.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's branding.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's free branding.
[SPEAKER_03]: Somebody wearing a shirt.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's free branding.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I definitely believe in that, but it's also like a process, you know, it's not just, I'm not just going to create a shirt, just because I want to sell a shirt, I want to create a good, I want to find a good quality shirt, I want to find a good quality logo, I'm not just trying to do it, rush it, and it's bullshit, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's also one thing I feel like I was a business owner, I feel like it's very tough because you want to make sure whatever it is that you're doing for at least for me is like,
[SPEAKER_03]: is like very very close to perfect.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm not just going to drop a shirt because you know once again I want to find the proper material that's testing that's finding that spending you know what I'm saying Then find somebody to print it the proper way find somebody to design it.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's another thing Find like finding all that I should that shit is a process, but I definitely want to do all that 100% just takes some time
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, my resources are available.
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you're ever interested, you know, not saying if I'm able to just top shit, but the one you wear is actually pretty nice.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, not a quality.
[SPEAKER_01]: And the older ones too.
[SPEAKER_01]: The quality is really good.
[SPEAKER_01]: A little bit different now, because I source those, but you know, quality is still good, but for what you're looking for, I feel like you would want more like a streetwear kind of vibe.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe actually not.
[SPEAKER_01]: You like, I remember you said you like the shirts to be more like, you can work with them.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you want to be able to,
[SPEAKER_01]: Still moving shake.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what like that was when I was working.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like you different now You want to like I want some swaggy shit to wear Honestly, you want like some streetwear.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's like oversized.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, you know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I would definitely bro I'm telling you I think I think you're your people your customers weight upstairs or they've been Counting down.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, so yeah, I just put it rock up bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like you don't got to be nothing fancy But the shirt's up and that's it and people ask you to sell them we don't work on that What shit?
[SPEAKER_01]: Got to get shirts made at least one design that yo even this just I mean obviously you have your thing But this is what I learned to sometimes when you try to go above and beyond it have something like super artsy like for me Like that was very basic, but
[SPEAKER_01]: I was trying too much because I feel like I had to do a lot, but as it realized that people are going to buy my stuff because they want to support what I'm doing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I could have just put street out with my regular logo on there and people probably still would have bought it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I would say in the beginning it's probably just best to keep it simple and just have your logo on the shirt.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now we people can wear it and support it and that's it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then you can do the other stuff after like a streetwear urban stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just my approach because I feel like you would like sell more of something like that Yeah, then something more creative.
[SPEAKER_01]: I got you.
[SPEAKER_03]: That sounds yeah, it sounds like a plan Once I drop the shirt, I'm sending one.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I hope so.
[SPEAKER_01]: You have all the huddies Except for this one.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, make sure you head up with a street off with that code of copyright So so what's so what's next for the shop?
[SPEAKER_01]: You plan on open up another shop?
[SPEAKER_01]: Anytime.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I want to open up another shop
[SPEAKER_01]: But this is like, now, obviously this year you're going to do this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Nah, yeah, not this year, definitely not.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe like in two, three years from now.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the goal is to like French.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to go as much, wherever the wind takes me.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I can go there and pay.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's where I want to go.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now that, and I can make money there.
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to work for you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Nah, LA or something like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Go to Florida.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there's obviously the kind of Florida.
[SPEAKER_03]: I go anywhere where it's making money.
[SPEAKER_03]: I got to learn that area and it's makes sense to like open up as far as I go anywhere, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want this brand to be everywhere.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not just trying to open it in New York.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm trying to open it anywhere and everywhere.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want this brand to be like a McDonald's.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it's everywhere.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: Why not?
[SPEAKER_03]: Why open it?
[SPEAKER_03]: Brandon just have it one block, one spot.
[SPEAKER_03]: If the one spot is working, you can explain why the fuck don't you
[SPEAKER_03]: You made this spot work, if you can make it, bro, they always say if you can make it in New York, you can make it anywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
[SPEAKER_03]: Bro, New York is so expensive.
[SPEAKER_03]: You could take, I could take this, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: And, bro, imagine what I could be paying for in Florida at this price.
[SPEAKER_01]: How many spriffiers is this?
[SPEAKER_03]: $5,000.
[SPEAKER_03]: We just spoke about this yesterday.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like you probably paid like $4,000, $4,5,000 a month.
[SPEAKER_03]: because I've been making a killing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's probably like four or five thousand.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you make all I would have to do is literally learn and how can I get these people to come to my facility.
[SPEAKER_03]: Once I do that, it's like, I'm good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can survive here, I can pay, you know?
[SPEAKER_01]: So what are some of the strategies you're gonna be implementing into your social media?
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow, you have 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20
[SPEAKER_03]: being more on the media, you know what I'm saying.
[SPEAKER_03]: I kind of made a little plan about that that I'm going to implement going into 2026, but I kind of fell off, you know, I kind of fell off of that like this whole move was like a
[SPEAKER_03]: change for me yeah and I kind of like loss that touch in a sense, but I'm slowly getting it back and I'm a slowly get back on my ship, but twenty twenty six I'm coming for everything, you know.
[SPEAKER_01]: I hope so, man.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because I feel like you were, at least when I was here, you were kind of all like trying to do more on camera stuff and really trying to like, you know, be the, I mean, you are the face of the brand, but like be more on camera and on social media.
[SPEAKER_01]: Mm-hmm.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's things that like I always think about that and I think this is probably why I do what I do in this space social media because like I look at everything like if I was a detailer what would I do in order to market myself differently from.
[SPEAKER_01]: other people because I feel like that's the biggest thing that really sells your brand, you know, aside from just like your stuff is great because it's in person and the best kind of business to get is through referrals, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But I feel like to get to those numbers that you want to be at every month.
[SPEAKER_01]: the marketing is really going to excel at a hundred percent.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, once you like our morning camera and so really showing people what you're doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that too.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that too because now the viewer get like a connection with me myself.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: To know me a little bit more.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I kind of didn't really realize how important that was to like people that's watching.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: That want to or could potentially be new customers.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's actually very important.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, for a minute,
[SPEAKER_03]: I try to carry the business very professional that just me being on film kind of doesn't match that if that makes sense.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like sometimes I'm not that professional.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like I like to come on camera and be myself.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes being myself is not professional.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, how are yourself that you want to be though?
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe cursing a little bit.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if that probably isn't a good idea, yeah, no, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_01]: But it could work because we're in this scene of work, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're in New York.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it might just be like that kind of, it depends.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I actually told you, it was more so like knowing what I'm going to say.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I still be getting camera shot.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, honestly, man, I can say that that's never going to go away.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I do this all the time, and
[SPEAKER_01]: If there's always a little bit of nerves in the beginning, but you're always going to be, it's always, I think for anybody, it's always going to be awkward.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, what I got into the habit of doing, I just got like a stand and I'll just record myself working or record myself going up.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll talk to the camera, I won't post it, but I'll just get into the habit of being, like being the face, being myself being, how can I catch these people's eye?
[SPEAKER_03]: I just have been practicing it though.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been practicing it, I ain't gonna lie.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the best way to do it is just to plan it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I find I find out more stressed out in nervous when I don't have much it together.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: When I'm really nervous, that means that I'm not prepared.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because that means I did research like.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, very, very, very last minute.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't have whatever, like, I just, I'm not feeling it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, uh, I think having some type of structure, plan is, yeah, that's very, very important.
[SPEAKER_01]: Very, very important.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I learned.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Having scripts, like writing out scripts for a whole week.
[SPEAKER_01]: We spoke about that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we spoke about that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Scripting up your time and try, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's very, very important to, like, plan out.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like content is something that has to be planned, you know?
[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, everything.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's, it's a full on.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a whole new business and itself.
[SPEAKER_01]: But I think, for you, since you're so busy, bro, I think that you should plan out your stuff, have scripts, that way you're more confident, because if you have something written down, you know what you're going to say, what are you scared of?
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what you're going to say, you know what you're doing, that's where the confidence is coming from, it's not from anything else.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know?
[SPEAKER_01]: So when you have the freestyle, then you're thinking, you don't know what to say, you might mess up, and at that point, you start to become insecure and so on.
[SPEAKER_01]: Authentic.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's cool when you're working.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think the freestyle works when you're working and you're actually doing stuff And when you got to talk to the camera you got to have I feel like you have to have it scripted There's some people who are gifted, but not everybody's like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, so you kind of have to be real with yourself and see like I I've never done that before saw definitely try what like Yeah, it's different.
[SPEAKER_01]: I do it now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah freestyle.
[SPEAKER_01]: I used to but then like the content it makes it harder to edit also because now you're just
[SPEAKER_01]: Winging a bunch of stuff and then you got to go in there and edit at least for me if you're editing your own stuff You have to go in there and sit there and fix all those mess ups rather than having a structured and scripted and then when you're scripted You can have options like I did it this five times.
[SPEAKER_01]: I like how I said it the first time rather than the fit time.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know It's just like you get it's a different it's a whole different process.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that's a whole okay So I think that that's something again.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm gonna try to script in you go with that down script
[SPEAKER_03]: This is knowledge for me bro every time we talk bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's knowledge for me No, I'm telling you this was like hair and I want you to be you know, I'm saying like this is like Just me trying to help you out.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's want me to move to Florida.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what no, I think I think you should bro No, I'm not my move.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like close to Miami somewhere close to Miami.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I know it would have been good to.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I found a spot seeing it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just didn't really feel like it was it though.
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't really hit, you know, and then I kind of gave up on that because too much was the factor.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, oh, I have to move out there.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have to travel out there and I have a kid, you know, I got to go back and forth back and forth.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's also a thing to you got to be ready for that.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if that's ever gonna be a thing where you're comfortable to.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like, you know?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, I moved to Florida.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was scared, I'm like, bro, I'm doing this.
[SPEAKER_01]: I wanna be able to have my own space, because I was living with my grandmother's house and so I was like, born, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: And I went from living in a bedroom to like a house now.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was nervous about painting, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm like, I think that, you know, like you said, man, you gotta take the risk.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you got to a bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to know how to.
[SPEAKER_03]: and just do your research like you were saying yeah the area and so on see what other business doesn't know that you could afford it know your finances can you but don't you know just don't really go into it not knowing you could really you got the money you know something you kind of kind of have to have the money a little bit somewhere yeah um for the potential to have the money that makes sense to right like you know I can make this money but once again no no risk no where yeah you know now you got the crib I'm pretty sure what
[SPEAKER_03]: I appreciate two years from now you're from now you're going to call me with a bigger crib or a nice thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Once you grow, you grow.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think one of the biggest things when you move.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I don't know, you can speak from experience too because you live somewhere else now.
[SPEAKER_01]: But like, I always thought moving into like a big house or a bigger house was going to be like a crazy feeling.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, but for a while, I was numb when I first moved in because I'm like,
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn, it doesn't feel like I'm leasing a house, I don't own it, but it never felt like real And then by the time I actually felt like damn I actually live here You don't even think about it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then you realize like you just want to be comfortable It's not even about like yo, I got a crib like pull up about it through parties It's more just like you just want to be comfortable when you're able to do the things that you want to do Without having to trip over, you know, a iron or some shit, you know, like it's just a comfortable comfortable feeling that you get
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all you're really doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's a good, it's a, like, that's a good headspace for you to think properly too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you need that.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, actually, when you're on your entrepreneur, you need to be able to go away and think, you need that place to go away and just get all your thoughts out on a pen and paper or express yourself.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's very, very important to have that, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: one of the cool things that Mark did was he had service car service pick me up right so you started this car service at the last spot you had the I don't know if you still have the the feedback yeah so I didn't know if you were still doing that yeah I'm still doing that and I was expecting to be picked up in that car but then I got to tell me the luggage so yeah yeah back in fit that
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I was thinking we gon' figure it out, cause I didn't really know how you had freestyled.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what freestyled in 2026.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know, so, what are the plans for this business?
[SPEAKER_03]: So you gonna expand the... Yeah, I wanna expand it, my boy, actually, he seen me kind of doing it and he kind of started it in Florida.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I kinda wanna do something to him in Florida too, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, so you, okay, okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: I wanna do something in Florida, but right now, up here, like, 2026, I definitely plan on like, expanding it way larger than what it is right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: So are these cars that like do you own the own two cars but then I also have met people in the industry so I kind of like broker their car So I'll use their cars for a job or something like that like if somebody wants something specific I can get it for you You know like a certain car a certain car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so this is like Like luxury chauffeur.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's just you know pick you up take you anywhere you want to go You want to go out to stay you want to go out with your girl.
[SPEAKER_03]: You want to go out to eat, you know Yeah, where where that guy's like that's also like a very
[SPEAKER_03]: We're professional here.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's extra professional there, you know, so um, that's a really cool business that I got into and I was able to get into that business because of this business.
[SPEAKER_03]: I kind of had some money was like, where can I put this money to make me want it more money?
[SPEAKER_03]: So Got a car and kind of like experimented with that.
[SPEAKER_03]: It did well.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I kind of ran with it
[SPEAKER_01]: So where do the numbers look like for these like in terms of like how much charge and so on for that?
[SPEAKER_03]: So our main back right now we have a may back for one twenty an hour like a three hour minimum So come to the draw we go anywhere you want do whatever you want for three hours the as long as you want for the car We have a black truck That's 85 an hour.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have a sprinter.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have a rose Royce color.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then we have a whole bunch of different cars To pick from but our most popular cars is our may back in our black truck black truck Just fit more people may back love it because the may back because it's cheap.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's very cheap people love that
[SPEAKER_01]: So wait, so you said, what's 85?
[SPEAKER_03]: The truck.
[SPEAKER_01]: The truck is 85.
[SPEAKER_01]: 85.
[SPEAKER_01]: One hour.
[SPEAKER_01]: But you have to do three hour minimum.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what do you recommend this service is for them?
[SPEAKER_03]: anyone that want to go out you want to go out and you don't want to drive you want to go out you want to go for drinks you don't want to drive where that people to make sure you get to your destination there safely and home safely anyone that want to do something special for like you know a lover make something special pick them up sometimes
[SPEAKER_03]: Bro, you'll be surprised.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like people pick up a pay for us to like pick up flowers for their girl and drop it off to them at work You know those type of stuff is what we Inquiring the airport you don't want to feel like you don't want to wait for no Uber You know, yeah, that was nice Right here, which a name if you want us to ready for you to take you along.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think at the name right on front I think at the name okay I'm kind of surprised because I ain't get the name.
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought I was gonna be too excited
[SPEAKER_01]: I just want to make sure, you know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the Mayback, it's a lot of bookings for photography, people like to take pictures with that one.
[SPEAKER_03]: Promise, promise, promise, promise, like a good one too.
[SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, that business is really, I like that business a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's less of a headache.
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that something that you would recommend somebody else to get into or you have to kind of have the corner of the capital Kind of I kind of use the connections that I had here like car wise people.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm already known for like car shit Yeah, in the car community.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I kind of like branched off to something else car shit You know what I'm saying and then kind of build my client out from there.
[SPEAKER_03]: So someone just jumping in is
[SPEAKER_03]: kind of tough.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you don't have no connections because you really just need connections so like, strive at this business.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're able to connect with other people, you can make more money and make more opportunities for yourself, but just jumping in, how no.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, just buy a truck and just say, I'll got a black truck, rent me, you know, everyone's doing that.
[SPEAKER_03]: What's different about you?
[SPEAKER_03]: and then do you have other people that you have like subbed out like or people like other drivers because you can hire drivers too right like that just like they don't have a car they just they're willing to drive yeah yeah yeah so you have those people on speed out too or no because you know it's a trusting when it comes to business so you just got to know that you could trust that person which is vehicle you know what I'm saying and be driving your vehicle and still being professional so now
[SPEAKER_03]: It's I have to know the driver personally For him to be a driver of mine like I usually if I hire a driver like you have to drive me five times for free Because I got to see how you move how you drive Are you professing anywhere and like anywhere I want to go you know, so Broly oh business business boy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I I boasted with you You have to set a certain standard bro like as the entrepreneur and bro you're the leader
[SPEAKER_03]: These people are looking at you to lead.
[SPEAKER_03]: So you have to lead correct and I feel like I kind of just learned that Really, yeah, I just well, I feel like my lead now is just different.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just way more different like I felt like I was a leader, but
[SPEAKER_03]: not the best leader.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like I understand my mistakes and I'm 20, 26, I'm going into it, like correcting a lot of shit.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: But that's how it is, bro, like, you the leader of your business, bro, these people, you got to set the example.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're not setting the example, these people is fucking around.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's because you're not setting the crop to proper example, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because there's a lot of days that I come in here and like, I'm fucked up, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: Fucked up, like I'm not.
[SPEAKER_03]: thinking straight, I don't even want to be here, but I still have to show up and I still have to.
[SPEAKER_03]: not really act.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still have to be a leader, you know, days that I don't want to be a leader.
[SPEAKER_03]: You still have to do that.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's also very tough part.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's why there's entrepreneurship.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not for everybody at all, bro.
[SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, I haven't even gotten to that point.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you have to perform on your best days on your worst days, I should say.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have not gotten to that point because I'm still working by myself.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's a challenge in one of those, but be prepared for it.
[SPEAKER_01]: not 100% like that's another chapter of you know being an entrepreneur I'm out there yet and obviously you have a whole shop and then you have employees too so you're in a different you're like in a whole different space but obviously there's levels to it and I'll get there eventually but how I deal with this is going to be probably a little bit different than how you deal with it you gotta be level-headed bro and understanding though
[SPEAKER_03]: But you still got to be strict.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm too kind of patient too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, 100%.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's my thing that I'm like struggling with.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I have a lot of patience.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: A little bit more.
[SPEAKER_01]: That changes it too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Having a kid?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, a little bit.
[SPEAKER_03]: A little bit.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I've always been a patient guy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like the only
[SPEAKER_03]: times I was of a rushy rushy was when I was building a car, I was not patient us at all, but I learned from that too like you're being impatient.
[SPEAKER_03]: So much shit went wrong because I was literally not being patient.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm it still applies in like my life now, but I just got better at it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I'm saying?
[SPEAKER_03]: I definitely got better at it because I'm still impatient but I'm just patient for the right things if that makes sense.
[SPEAKER_01]: Next a lot of sense.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm happy that you're doing well in your business.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm really happy for you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I said, I'll always say that it's really hard to find people that are doing your level of work.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm just kidding.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm really happy for you, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I wish that I'm much more robust for you.

[SPEAKER_03]: He's filming.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's editing.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's doing all this by himself and he's been doing all this by himself And I'm super proud of him to see like what you've grown to bro because we thank you.
[SPEAKER_03]: This was just a conversation that we had in the shop And well, the starting of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's starting of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm saying so not look where it is
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I don't even know, like how that was a thing where I was just like, let me ask this dude that I think he was asking me like about the shop, like I, yeah, but my, in my head, I'm thinking like, how would I feel comfortable enough to ask you to use your space?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because you were just technically washing my car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but you know when you meet somebody and you get a vibe from them, like I said, yeah, I met you and I got that vibe and trust from you and I met you.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm seeing potential in you.
[SPEAKER_03]: I appreciate it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've seen the potential like, yo, you know, you shot that video when you did your maybe that was the best video that we had on the parody shot of video for you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you shot a video Who's watching the blue car.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that was yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, that's how things started.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, because I'm like how the hell did I even feel comfortable enough to be like, yo, let me just ask Martin.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think you said that you wanted to use the shop because of the lighting
[SPEAKER_03]: You said that the lighting was fire in there that you wanted to use the lighting and shoot the car.
[SPEAKER_03]: Would you mind if like, while we're washing the car, we shoot, I'm like, yeah, oh yeah, okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you remember when you got your car attended,
[SPEAKER_03]: You, you asked me if you could go back there and record it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I normally don't let people go back there.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, really?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I normally don't let no one walk inside the shop, because that's the workspace.
[SPEAKER_03]: The work you don't back there.
[SPEAKER_03]: But you know, it was cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: You asked me, you know, people would go, just walk past me, go in the shop.
[SPEAKER_03]: You asked me, you'll kind of go back there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, of course, you got to respect the space.
[SPEAKER_01]: And honestly, that video, I think it's like 500,000 views on YouTube.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's something like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: The video I was recording for, like the whole building is super in 10 minutes
[SPEAKER_01]: So I wanted to get that process of the car, but I didn't realize if that's that's definitely what it was But yeah, I mean, uh, hopefully we could have some future co-host podcasts again I don't even know how we would do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: I definitely want to come back to New York and do something I don't get to talk about that, so yeah, we did doing something here In New York because this is obviously where the podcast started.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and I feel like it could be cool to kind of have like some sort of like reunion Yeah, we should not do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: You got to look at them
[SPEAKER_01]: not 100%.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll definitely be talking about that.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just logistics and, you know, you don't really want to step away from your main stuff to kind of plan something else.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm probably going to need some sort of like help.
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe my girl helped me out of whatever kind of planning we're going to have as we know we're here to.
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll figure it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: But we definitely got to do that for sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I feel like that would be like really lit.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that would be like I've never heard of nothing like that in New York.
[SPEAKER_01]: At this point, I don't think it can happen though.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no other podcast that would talk your shit.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I must not even like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just a like, there's no other podcast that does like this kind of stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: And if they do, it's not on the level to where they can pull together the same people and you know, have the same networking and it's just different.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not the same right though, not 100%, I don't feel like there's no one, I don't feel like no one is gonna do that.
[SPEAKER_03]: And if it does happen, that's why it would be cool if you do it because you're the only one that's gonna be able to do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just like we spoke about, like just figuring it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: Figuring out in the confidence.
[SPEAKER_01]: So in the planning.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we'll definitely have some sort of like a year or something like that soon, that'll be cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: So thanks again, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also, before we leave, I think there was some people that were upset with you last time, how you were writing their cars last time, because you were a little harsh.
[SPEAKER_01]: Tell them step they should know I have people DM and me talking about some yeah I don't know shit about cars and honestly I was I was being nice cuz I you know I'm not gonna be Ass hello whatever, but you got to do you you got to do real.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my opinion is my opinion Yeah, it's like it's hot.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh the fuck you get mad
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, they were really, you know, a few were mad, bro.
[SPEAKER_01]: Bro, it's like they were pissed in the comments too.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're just pretty funny.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's funny.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's okay to be mad.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll do another rating card at the end of the song.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, maybe with different energy in the shop.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, a little bit of the fun.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll be on the lookout for that guys.
