Who We Are#

Hello! 👋

(We will add a YouTube video introduction here at some point)

Why We Started Striking Detail#

Our church has a pretty cool self-reliance program that has courses in 5 topics. One of them is "Starting and Growing My Business".

Dustin has started a number of small businesses over the years - mainly hobby businesses. He wanted Gehrig to learn about starting and running a business, so he signed them up for the course!

Why Car Detailing?#

As we looked at various opportunities, car detailing seemed like the most exciting and the best fit because:

1. Dustin likes to watch car detailing videos on YouTube for fun. Some of his favorite YouTubers are The Detail Geek, MAD Detailing, and Stauffers Garage.
2. It is a good fit for Gehrig because he is still in high school. He can do this in his spare time.
3. We have all the equipment to get started today.
4. There are no similar businesses that we could find in the immediate area.

Gehrig worked for Willard Bay all summer doing maintenance work and boat decontaminations. His goal is to grow the business to the point where the can work at it full-time next summer and replace his $12 per hour income he made there.

What with the name?#

Finding a business name is hard. Finding a business name with an available .com domain name is even harder. I went though a number of ideas before I found a few that we liked and had an available .com. I think the main reason we chose "strking detail" was because "strike" also has a faint tie in with baseball. We love baseball. Can you guess who Gehrig was named after? It also fit will with my SCorp name - Red Seam, Inc.
