"I'm sorry parker. Maybe this job just isn't for you. You're fired."

Used Car Dealer

Mentor, OH | Tuesday May 11th, 2021

It was a warm, rainy afternoon here in Mentor, Ohio. I was just finishing up a shift from what I thought was going to be my dream job: an Automotive Detailer.

See, I love cars, and I always have. Ever since I was a child, I had dreamed of being face to face with exotic cars, being able to one day own one myself.
Although working for a used car dealer cleaning out old Honda Civics wasn’t the dream position, I knew I had to start somewhere. But somehow, I was actually enjoying the process.

There was only one issue: the Pay. I was only making about $14 an hour at the time; and although I was putting in 10 and 12 hour days, I simply was not making enough money to cover my rent. I was going negative month after month. Slowly drowning myself in debt.

There was an opportunity to move up, though. It was a sales position. Instead of being in the back making the cars look decently nice (we know car dealers really don’t care if it’s perfect), I would be the face of the company, selling cars, and making big money. Maybe this was the opportunity I needed after all!

Oh how wrong I was…

"This job just isn't for you, Parker"

To my surprise, after a few months working in the Sales department, I was beginning to make money! That’s great… but just about everything else was falling out of place.

I was constantly struggling to find motivation to do anything. I knew sales made me more money, but I really just couldn’t bring myself to scam people out of their money. 

Now I know, not every used car dealership was a scam operation… but this one was. One million percent. Cars that shouldn’t be on the road were being sold for double their book value. It just didn’t feel right… so I decided to say something.

I went into my bosses office and exclaimed “Hey man, I really don’t think this is right.  Most of our cars just aren’t what we say they are, and we are absolutely gouging people for them too. Do you really think we can sustain a business like this?”

As you can probably imagine, within the next 20 minutes, I had been fired from this job. Not only that, they had refused to pay out my sales commission they owed me. I felt betrayed. I wanted to swear at that man for days on end, but it would be of no use. I had felt fire inside me, more than I ever had before.

But maybe that was the spark I needed to light the new reality ahead…

On Friday May 14th 2021, Elite Touch Mobile Detailing came to life

Follow your passion, even if it might crush you.

I felt lost in my own head for the next few days. “I can’t let this happen to me again. There has to be a better way.” A way that I can live out my dream job, without going into debt no matter what I tried. 

If I was going to succeed, I knew I couldn’t be limited by bad business practices, or by other people’s judgement of my skills. Then it hit me. Let’s kick that dealership to the curb and start my own Mobile Detailing company. That way, I control everything, and I can reach endless possibilities. 

On Friday May 14th 2021, I officially started Elite Touch Mobile Detailing. I bought all of the tools and materials I needed, and somehow fit it all in the back of my 2014 Toyota Camry. It was a tight fit, but I had no other choice but to make it work. 

Here’s the good news: I already knew what I was doing. I had detailed for this dealership for years, so doing great work was easy. Now it was time to learn the hard stuff’ Business.

Although I knew it would be far from easy, I also knew it would be so, so worth it.

Although there wasn’t rapid expansion in the first year, it was also my first business. Many happy -and unfortunately unhappy- clients were under my belt… but the learning never stopped.

Ceramic Coating Services Added

After slowly building the Mobile Detailing part of the business, I knew I had to serve my clients to a higher degree. They loved having a clean vehicle, but found that they often didn’t stay clean for long. Thus, we introduced our Ceramic Coating services!

500th Client Served

The big 500. Halfway to 1000 clients successfully served by Elite Touch Mobile Detailing. At this point, my schedules were jam packed during the summer time, but we couldn’t operate outside in the winter… This was a problem we needed to solve. Fast.

Your trusted partners in Automotive Detailing, Ceramic Coating (and soon) Paint Protection Film and Window Tint in the Mentor, OH Area!

Our goal at Elite Touch Mobile Detailing is to become your leading partners for all of our Automotive Detailing, Protection and Customization needs.

Through our years of experience, getting to meet hundreds of amazing client, we realized one crucial error in the detailing market: Lack of Consistency. 

We have encountered many competitor businesses who have started, operated, and closed within our time, simply because they failed to offer a stellar experience. They thought that “Good Enough” was just that… good enough.

Here at Elite Touch Mobile Detailing, we don’t believe that to be true. Not even for a second.

Just like I would have detailed your vehicle at my first detail job so many years ago… we operate each and every day with a mindset of “You only deserve the BEST.”

Our goal for the future is to continue to innovate on the experience you deserve when having your vehicle serviced. We want you to understand that you DESERVE the best service possible. 

For us, it isn’t going above and beyond. It’s the standard. It’s what you deserve now, and forever!

WE ARE Elite Touch Mobile Detailing.

and we are here to stay!

Although we began our journey only offering Automotive Detailing, we are now able to both protect AND customize any vehicle of your choosing thanks to our Ceramic Coatings, (and soon to be)  Paint Protection Film and Window Tint services!

We have worked for years honing our craft, developing our facilities, hiring amazing team members, and sourcing only the highest grade products. All of this is done to ensure you have a memorable experience from the moment you contact us at Elite Touch Mobile Detailing.

But remember; this is where we are now. We are always growing, innovating, and expanding with the goal of serving thousands more vehicle owners, just like yourself.

We need to thank you, for the bottom of our hearts. Even if you just took the time to read our story, we know you will be hearing more about us as time goes on.

However, if you want to support us in our journey to becoming the top Automotive Detailing, Ceramic Coating, Paint Protection Film (PPF) and Window Tint service in Mentor, OH and beyond, you just have one more click to do so….
