In this episode, Kevin sits down with Robyn Sweet—owner of The Detail Lab and Field Application Specialist at RUPES USA—for a candid conversation on how she went from 911 dispatcher to premium-level detailer and trainer. Robyn opens up about her journey into the detailing world, how she’s built a successful boutique business in a rural town, and why “success” isn’t always about scaling bigger or faster. With a background in emergency communications, Robyn brings a calm, grounded perspective to an often chaotic industry—and offers thoughtful insights on communication, customer service, training, and running a business that fits your life. This episode is full of humor, wisdom, and real-world advice for anyone looking to grow in detailing while staying true to themselves.Key TakeawaysYou Don’t Have to Dream It to Be Great at ItRobyn never imagined she’d end up in detailing—but fell in love with it after one class and turned it into a career.Past Careers Can Be Your Secret WeaponHer time as a 911 dispatcher shaped her communication style and calm demeanor—two major strengths in both client interactions and training sessions.Success Doesn’t Mean VolumeRobyn runs a boutique shop that intentionally details just one car per day—focused on quality and a personal client experience.Freedom is the Real WinFor her, success isn’t about growth for growth’s sake—it’s about the freedom to control her time, energy, and client relationships.Connection is Her SuperpowerWhether it’s over the phone during an emergency or in a training room with detailers, Robyn excels at making people feel seen and heard.Training is About Listening, Not Just TellingAs a RUPES trainer, she prioritizes humility and clear communication, making sure people feel safe enough to ask questions and learn.Your Social Media Should Talk to Clients, Not CompetitorsShe challenges detailers who post for the approval of other detailers, instead of actually engaging and educating their paying audience.You Don’t Have to “Do It All” to Be SuccessfulRobyn pushes back against industry pressure to scale fast or offer every service—she proves you can grow intentionally, sustainably, and joyfully.Get your one-stop success solution at www.detailersroadmap.com!FacebookInstagramTikTokYouTube
