In The Western Mass. Business Show

Nicole and Rich have car oil in their blood, I’m sure of it. They met in a dealership and decided to open a car wash and detail center together as life and business partners. Having been introduced by Ira Bryck former host of the show, through the EforAll connection we were already familiar with each other but had never met. It was a joy to hear how these two are making it work by focusing on community, customer service, and each other. Open 7 days a week they go above and beyond to provide unexpected service and human kindness. Knowing you and your vehicle are essential to them earning your business and trust. I know where I’m going for my next car wash and detail. Thank you both for coming on the show, Nicole you are going to have to let me know the next time you drag race. Thanks for listening everyone.
