RUN YOUR DETAILING BUSINESS FROM YOUR PHONE

Between drive time, setup, and the actual work, you don't have time to chase invoices or rebook no-shows. OPS handles the business side so you can stay focused on the car in front of you.

[ THE PROBLEM ]

No-shows are killing your schedule

• Clients book, forget, and you show up to an empty driveway
• You lose two hours of drive time and earn nothing
• Rescheduling eats up your morning before you've touched a car
• No deposit, no accountability — clients treat your time like it's free

For mobile detailers running 4–8 stops a day

Package pricing confuses everyone

• Clients don't understand the difference between a basic wash and a full interior
• You quote one thing, they expect another, and now it's an argument
• Add-ons for ceramic coating, engine bay, or pet hair never get charged correctly
• You're undercharging regulars and losing margin on the jobs that take the most time

For detailers offering tiered or à la carte services

Before/after photos disappear into your camera roll

• You take 20 photos per job but they're scattered across Messages, Google Drive, and your phone
• Clients dispute work quality with no visual proof to back you up
• You can't build a portfolio or market results because nothing is organized by job
• Ceramic and paint correction clients expect documentation — you're delivering none

For detailers doing correction, ceramic, or high-ticket work

[ THE SOLUTION ]

HOW OPS HANDLES IT

[ 01 ]

Automated reminders that actually work

OPS sends SMS and push reminders 48 hours and 2 hours before every appointment — customized with the client's name, vehicle, and service. Collect a deposit at booking so clients have real skin in the game. When someone cancels, your open slot surfaces immediately so you can fill it fast.

[ 02 ]

Packages and add-ons built right in

Build your service menu once — Bronze, Silver, Gold, whatever you call them — and attach add-ons with fixed prices. When you book a job, both you and the client see exactly what's included. No verbal negotiations, no invoice surprises. If the pet hair surcharge applies, it's already on the ticket.

[ 03 ]

Job photos attached to every ticket

OPS ties your before/after photos directly to the job, not your camera roll. Tap the job, see every photo from every visit. Clients get a clean photo summary with their invoice. For ceramic or paint correction work, you have documented proof ready if questions come up months later.

[ 04 ]

Route your day, not just your schedule

Map your stops in order before you leave the shop. OPS shows drive time between appointments so you can see when a 9am and 11am booking are actually 45 minutes apart. Fit more jobs in the same hours without the frantic scramble between stops.
