In this episode, we talk to Darren Priest, an entrepreneur that started his auto detailing business by detailing a friends car for $40 in his early 20s, while looking for an additional stream of income. Today, he has created a mini auto detailing empire located in Orange County and has even solidified himself as the "auto detail guy" on social media. Search "auto fetish detail" on YouTube and any of the other big social media platforms and you'll undoubtedly run into him. Darren is big into the entrepreneurship mindset and believes that focus and hard work can turn just about any niche profitable if you play your cards right.
