Your three-year-old just commandeered your new car :/

POV: You bought the nice car.

The one you were going to keep pristine. The weekend car. The "special occasions only" car.

Then your three-year-old discovered it exists.

Now it's Goldfish Central. French fries under the seats. Juice box casualties in the cupholders. Your baby became a mobile snack graveyard in approximately 48 hours.

This just happened to one of my clients this week.

The problem

She bought a brand new car. Beautiful. Showroom perfect. Had big plans to keep it that way.

Her kid had other plans.

Specifically, he decided this was now his car. The only car he'd agree to ride in. Full toddler tyranny mode.

She had two choices: never use the car (insane), or accept that her three-year-old runs the show now (reality).

She chose option three.

What she did

She joined my monthly maintenance program.

$199/month. I show up once a month. Express interior and exterior. Every single time.

Here's why it works: she knows the Goldfish are coming. She knows the fries will return. But now she also knows I'm coming back in 30 days to undo the damage.

The car stays new. The toddler gets his rides. Everyone wins.

(Except the Goldfish. RIP.)

Next week I'll talk about ceramic coatings and why a lot of my monthly clients add that protection too. But that's for later.

Sidenote: If you buy 6 months up front you get $1,643 worth of detailing for $999. Reply 6 and I’ll send you the info. (only 7 of these left)

What's available right now

I'm running two things in December. Both ending soon.

1. The Annual Gift Card Thing (80% Off)

I do this once a year. 30 total available. 24 left as of this email. They expire January 31st.

You buy a $250 Premium Interior gift card for $63.

Give it to a family member, friend, coworker, client. Anyone outside your household.

You look like a hero. They get their car back. You spent less than a tank of gas.

IMPORTANT: This cannot be used on yourself. Or your spouse. Or anyone who shares your address. I can see the names. Don't get creative with this.

(This isn't a Sam's Club membership loophole. It's a gift for other people.)

2. VIP Reset Spots (5 Left, Past Clients Only)

If your car currently looks like a Cheerios distribution center, I'm opening 5 "VIP Reset" spots in December.

You get a $75 loyalty credit toward:

• A Premium Interior + Exterior detail

Hit reply with "RESET" and tell me your vehicle and city. Or simply use this link to book now and see my availability for December. (still 3 spots left this week)

Already perfect because you actually use my service? Gift your $75 credit to someone who needs it more. Just have them reply with your name so I know who to thank (or blame).

If you want in before January, now's the time.

If you want to wait until your three-year-old ages out of the Goldfish phase, I'll see you in 2032.

P.S. The monthly maintenance thing is month-to-month. No contract. You can cancel whenever. But nobody does because once you experience having a consistently clean car without doing the work yourself, going back feels like punishment.
