FAQs

We do. Our team sets up the ads, answers the calls and texts, and books the jobs so you can stay hands-on with the van.

Here's the simple version

• Ads that work. We create awesome videos and ads. The we manage Google, Facebook, and other sites so our ads show up in your area. You cover the ad budget; we make every dollar count.

• Website that converts. A clean, mobile-friendly page and quick text/email replies keep shoppers from drifting off to another detailer.

• Phone team on standby. When a lead comes in, our call crew—working extended hours—gets back to them fast, answers questions, and drops confirmed jobs straight onto your calendar.

Your part

• Keep the van looking sharp, hand out yard signs or flyers if you like, and deliver a five-star service that turns first-timers into repeat customers.

• Jump on the phone yourself if you want to—but you'll be glad you have a team handling this for you.

Bottom line: we drive the marketing and sales so you can focus on the work you enjoy, without worrying about missed leads. Independent detailers just can't compete.

Absolutely. Most independent detailers we speak with are parked at that $5k-$10k-a-month plateau, wearing every hat in the van. Website updates, booking calls, marketing blasts, customer-service texts, invoicing—you name it—leaving less time for the hands-on work you actually enjoy.

Here's how FlyMyRide changes the game:

• Incentives to switch. Depending on your current revenue, we may waive the franchise fee and apply introductory royalty discounts to make the transition painless.

• Centralized support. Our Service Center handles lead generation, scheduling, customer follow-ups, and billing—so you can put the buffer back in your hand and the admin off your plate.

• Business coaching that scales. Proven playbooks and one-on-one coaching help you break through the solo-van ceiling and build a multi-van operation (or even a small fleet).

• Buying power & brand muscle. National marketing, preferred pricing on chemicals and film, and tech that texts customers faster than you can say "foam cannon."

Translation: ditch the busywork, double down on the craft, and grow beyond the single-van grind—without reinventing the wheel (or the wheel cleaner).

7:30 am — Fire up the van, queue the playlists

8 am-4 pm — Two to three premium details, a ceramic coat, maybe a prompt latte break

4:30 pm — Tidy van, log jobs in the app, brag on Instagram

Evenings & weekends — Yours, unless you really like polishing rims at midnight.

Only the good stuff—professional-grade soaps, degreasers, interior cleaners, and ceramic coatings that stand up to daily driving. We work with trusted suppliers who give us franchise-only pricing, and we're always testing new formulas in our own vans before they ever touch a customer's car. If it doesn't clean better or last longer, it doesn't make the cut.

Absolutely. We started in Boston and realize it's hard to detail outside when it's too cold. Some owners plan to take January and February and head to Florida. Others plan to find some indoor space to detail. It's all up to you.

Nope. If you can tell the difference between a sponge and a steering wheel, we can teach you the rest. Our training turns conscientious car lovers into certified shine ninjas in about two weeks.

Yes - you can transfer the business—and a branded, systemized operation typically commands a higher multiple than a solo shop. FlyMyRide also helps in the sales process. Translation: your exit plan just got an upgrade.

This is your own thing—you own 100 % of the business. It's your LLC. Your Federal business number. You get all the revenue deposited into your business bank account. As long as any side hustle doesn't compete with FlyMyRide (sorry, no moonlighting for Rival Detailing Co.), we're cool.

Every FlyMyRide runs from a fully self-contained mobile shop:

• Water on board - fresh/grey tanks and pump, so you can work anywhere without asking for a hose.

• Power to spare - quiet generator & inverter for polishers, vacs, and lights.

• Air system - compressor with hose reels for blow-outs and tools.

• Built-in vacuums & shelving - everything bolted down and ready to roll.

• Climate control - air-conditioned work bay keeps you (and the chemicals) cool.

• Pro wrap - full-body graphics that turn the van into a rolling billboard.

Using a FlyMyRide-spec van is required—it's part of the professional image and the reason customers trust us to come to them.

Don't own the right van yet?
We'll connect you with preferred lenders and up-fitters so you can lease or finance the exact build. Already have a suitable cargo van? We'll help retrofit it to FlyMyRide spec and wrap it in franchise branding, saving you cash while keeping the standard.

Here's the short version (full details live in our Franchise Disclosure Document):

• Hands-on week in Boston. Spend five focused days at our flagship shop learning every step of a Level 1 detail—wash, clay, polish, ceramic coat, interior deep-clean, the works.

• Remote business modules. Software, bookkeeping, and marketing sessions run over Zoom. Work through them at your own pace; the more hours you put in each week, the faster you finish.

• Typical launch window: 30-60 days after you sign. Need a little extra time? No problem. Already running a detailing van that meets spec? You could hit the road even sooner.

Bottom line: one solid week in Boston for the "how to shine," then online coaching for the "how to run," and you're rolling—usually inside two months.

You keep plenty, but it's fair to know the trade-offs.

What stays in your hands

• Ownership & profits. It's your LLC, your tax return, and your bottom line.

• Hiring & culture. You choose your techs, set wages, and decide how the day runs.

• Customer relationships. You're the local face customers see and review.

What we lock in together

• Brand standards. Same logo, same van wrap, same service checklist—so customers know exactly what a FlyMyRide visit means.

• Core menu & pricing range. You can't suddenly add lawn care or sell a $25 "quickie wash" that undercuts the brand.

• System tools. We all use the same CRM, booking flow, and marketing playbook so the machine runs smoothly.

Why owners decide it's worth it

• Bigger marketing engine. One shop shouting alone can't match a unified brand budget.

• Bulk buying & vendor deals. Group pricing on chemicals, equipment, and insurance.

• Proven playbook. Skip the trial-and-error phase that burns cash and time.

• Back-up crew. Real people at HQ (and fellow owners) to call when you hit a snag.

• Territory protection. Your patch is yours—no rogue FlyMyRide popping up next door.

So yes, you trade a bit of creative freedom (no purple logos) for a lot of muscle, support, and buying power. Most owners decide that's a swap worth making.

We believe they are, because they buy you far more than you could easily build on your own:

• A seasoned marketing crew. Campaign strategy, ad management, and website upkeep already handled—no need to hunt for freelancers or learn pay-per-click the hard way.

• A ready-made call desk. Pros who answer leads quickly (even after normal hours) so you're not tied to the phone while you're polishing paint.

• Pro software and systems. Booking, CRM, review requests, and reporting tools are set up, tested, and continuously improved for you.

• Training and coaching. Step-by-step playbooks, live support, and ongoing business coaching that would otherwise mean pricey consultants.

• Group buying power. Better pricing on chemicals, insurance, wraps, and equipment thanks to everyone pulling together under one brand.

• Brand credibility out of the gate. A name, look, and reputation customers already trust—saving years of "who are you?" conversations.

Could you piece all that together yourself? Sure, but it would take a lot of time, cash, and trial-and-error. By pooling a small slice of sales through fees, every owner taps into resources that feel "big company" while still running an independent business. That shared leverage is the core reason franchising works—when the franchisor keeps earning those fees. Delivering that value is exactly what we do every day.
