Turn Your Detail Department Into a Measurable Profit Center.
Detail Scale is the complete dealership detailing profit-growth system. We professionalize your detail department through training, SOPs, ceramic & protection programs, advisor upsell scripts, CRM automation, and KPI tracking — so the customers and vehicles already coming through your store become incremental six- to seven-figure annual profit.
Most dealerships don't have a detailing problem. They have a system problem.
You already have the customers, vehicles, service traffic, sales traffic, staff, brand trust, and bays. Detailing isn't underperforming because it's missing equipment — it's underperforming because it's run on chance instead of on a system.
Every dealership has five places detailing creates real profit.
Service Drive
A 3–8% close rate on existing service traffic for interior, exterior, salt removal, odor, headlight restoration, and seasonal packages.
Sales Floor
Ceramic, interior, fabric, leather, wheel & glass protection presented properly at delivery — financed into the sale.
Used-Car Recon
Faster reconditioning, better photos, lower days-to-frontline, higher gross per used unit, less appearance-driven discounting.
Lease Return / Trade-In
Pre-appraisal cleanup, scratch & odor treatment, paint correction — promoted through advisor scripts and SMS.
Marketing & Website
Detailing landing pages, ceramic funnels, Google Ads, AI chat, missed-call text-back, automated email/SMS follow-up.
B2B / Fleet
Local fleets, real estate teams, delivery companies, municipalities, and used-car wholesalers as recurring B2B revenue.
Model your dealership's added annual profit.
Adjust the annual service mix below. The model uses $29/hr loaded labor, ~7% staff spiffs on incremental revenue, ~$30k blended marketing/CRM/AI tooling, and ~$55k incremental overhead — the same assumptions Detail Scale uses in dealer proposals. Numbers are realistic estimates, not guarantees.
| Service | Jobs/yr | Avg ticket | Hrs/job |

Pricing & wage assumptions reflect Ontario benchmarks (Job Bank median ~$19.25/hr + CPP/EI/WSIB/vacation burden). Update before booking the audit for a tuned model.
Estimates only. Actual results depend on service mix, staff buy-in, and market.
