WORKING AS A TEAM
When detailers are working as a team or as two, the commission is paid differently and is done case by case. Many factors are included such as who is the main driver (gas) who is the seasoned detailer... etc. Generally, the jobs are split 50/50 of the commission for the day's works, or 40/30 typically two to three jobs, per day which is a total 50% commission of the days total. The percentage is determined by Dr. Detail and is based on many factors.
​
Decrease in Commission Pay
If the detailer is chronically late ( 2 times in a 30 day period), unprepared with the product has low customer ratings or has redos (3 or more in a month) Detailer will not qualify for upgrade and may be reduced to a lower percentage of commission.
​
Work Days and Times
If you can, please give a weeks' notice if you need to go out of town or need a day off.
Please email Dr Detail all requests for days off.
Please determine the days and hours you want to work each week and make sure Dr. Detail is clear on the days and times you can work.
(Please note that detailers with more work days and less time off with the best rating get the best high-paying jobs! They give us their best, we will give them our best!)
