QUOTE(nm7 @ Mar 19 2017, 09:25 AM) Meguairs are not necessarily the best car care product in the business anyways. Just the more common premium product. lol pay rm10-20 and expect using the best product on the planet meh? yeah its upper end brand and still better than those made in malaysia car wash soaps that come in unmarked containers

You open a self wash car wash better. Many people in high rise dont have access to water pipe and power outlets. Make something for those people

If you have the money then just do it
Don't wait for next week or next month or next year
It's your money, just do it!

Unfortunately, what you pay for is mostly what you get la. I bet they don't even have filtration systems for their air compressors. So, don't hope for the best of service in the interests of the customers just by paying so little la. Janji the car is "clean", they are considered to have done their job.

QUOTE(v1n0d @ Mar 19 2017, 09:46 AM) Protection is gonna cost you. My friend opened a car wash in Cheras (near Taman Cuepacs) a couple of years back. Bungkus in a few months after rival car wash guys paid the gangsters to come and trash his shop. End up the equipment damage alone made it too expensive to start again from scratch. You make cheras sound like a gangster township

As more and more high rise coming up & people are getting lazier to wash their car, I think is a viable business as long as you open at the right place (eg. place packed with high rise building) and position your brand correctly by asking yourself what you can do better than other car wash company available in the targeted market (eg. wash within certain time frame, excellent customer service, loyalty program, subscription package, etc...).

how about selling packages? ie buy 10 get 1 free?
i think u need to have other value added services, like polishing and waxing. that's where the meat is.
