Today we’d like to introduce you to Ariel Fabris.
Hi Ariel, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I started City Slick Mobile Car Detailing because I saw an opportunity to build something of my own while I was in college. What started as a small side business has grown into a full mobile detailing company serving Corvallis, Albany, Salem, and surrounding areas. I’ve put a lot of time into building the business from the ground up — from learning the craft and investing in equipment to building our brand, website, and customer base. Today, our goal is simple: provide an extremely convenient, high-quality detailing experience and continue growing City Slick into one of the most trusted detailing companies in the Willamette Valley.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. One of the biggest challenges has been balancing school, running the business, and constantly finding ways to improve. We’ve also dealt with equipment issues, scheduling problems, slow periods, and the uncertainty that comes with building a business from the ground up. There have been plenty of times where things didn’t go as planned, but every challenge has taught us something and pushed us to become better business owners. Learning how to manage customers, finances, marketing, operations, and growth all at once has probably been the biggest learning experience.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
City Slick Mobile Car Detailing is a mobile detailing company built around making professional car care as convenient as possible. We bring everything directly to our customers, whether they’re at home, work, or somewhere else, so they don’t have to spend their day sitting at a shop. We specialize in high-quality interior and exterior detailing, with services ranging from thorough interior cleanings and steam cleaning to exterior washes and ceramic coatings.
What sets us apart is the experience we provide from start to finish. We’ve focused heavily on building a recognizable brand, creating a professional customer experience, and using social media to connect with our local community. We’re especially proud of how much City Slick has grown from a small idea into a real business with a strong customer base and thousands of people following our journey online.
Our goal is to continue growing throughout the Willamette Valley while maintaining the quality and personal service that got us here in the first place. We want City Slick to become a name people immediately think of when they need their vehicle professionally detailed.
Risk taking is a topic that people have widely differing views on – we’d love to hear your thoughts.
