On this episode of the Talkin' Paint Podcast, I talk about preventing burnout and building a sustainable detailing business. I explore how detailers often chase others' versions of success rather than defining their own path, emphasizing the importance of genuine enjoyment in the work. I also jam on some of my own personal insights about business scaling, effective sales strategies, and the critical role of community engagement. I also highlight how proper CRM systems and business reflection can prevent burnout and drive growth.
