When we first started our Mobile Lube in 1999 there was no help out there for us. We made the mistake of jumping in "feet first" without learning about what it takes to run this type of business and simply bought our equipment thinking we could learn on the go. What a mistake!! The person we bought our first system off of didn't give us very much information and much of what he left out was critical! There was no one for us to turn to for advice - not many had even heard of such a service, much less have any ideas to help us.

We plowed through and did the best we could but threw away thousands of dollars right off - advertising in the wrong places - using the wrong approach when going after customers, not knowing WHO our customers were!! We simply didn't have a clue!!

We paid too much for our product - oil filters, air filters etc because we simply bought them from our oil distributor instead of seeking other vendors. At that time we just didn't realize how much we were over paying until after much searching we found other high quality lower priced vendors.We also paid out a small fortune to dispose of our waste oil and filters!

We spent tons of money on gloves and rainsuits until we found the right ones that not only did the job but that  we could work comfortably with. If  we had a quarter for every time one of us said said "I could of just opened the door and tossed the money out much easier then all the time and effort I wasted on that"  we would be among the wealthiest people in the world.

We wanted to "throw in the towel" so many times but we had a lot of people praying for us and the customers that we did get loved our service, so we kept going. Eventually we learned enough in the school of hard knocks and started doing very well.

We began getting emails from other "mobile lube newbies" asking questions, seeking advice and we would sit and type answers that were so long that over and over we found ourselves joking "whew! we should write a book".

FINALLY one day we realized that while we were helping the small amout of people who were emailing us, what about all the other poor souls who were in the same boat and didn't "just happen" to email us hopeing that we might help them out. That is when it hit us - YES we REALLY SHOULD write a book. A "How To" manual so we could answer all the questions we had been asked PLUS a lot of tips that we learned that people hadn't even thought of yet!

The rest as they say, is history. We spent every spare minute and worked many late nights working on this manual until we felt sure that we had provided all the information that we KNOW is neccessary to help others to start and run this business the RIGHT WAY and not have to experience the set backs we faced!
