Detail-specific tools
Not an afterthought. Built with detailers in mind from day one.
Memberships & maintenance plans
Build monthly or yearly plans, like two maintenance washes plus one interior a month. Enroll customers and log each visit against its monthly limit. Pro plan; members are billed outside SalesThumb for now.
Online self-scheduler
Your own booking page. Customers pick a service, see your open times, add their car, and pay a deposit by card if you take one. Mobile detailers can collect the service address.
Recurring visits
Weekly, every 2 weeks, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. Regulars land on the calendar automatically. You collect payment at each visit.
Service packages
Basic wash, full detail, concourse prep, show-car level — bundle services into tiers customers pick from one page.
Checklists & before/after photos
Multi-point interior and exterior checklists for every package. Snap the swirls and stains, then the finish, and share a gallery link after the job.
Review automation
Auto-request Google/Facebook reviews 24h after service. Turn happy customers into marketing.
Turn one-time customers into monthly members
Set up your plans once. Enroll a customer at pickup, and every wash or interior visit is counted against what their plan includes.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best software for an auto detailing shop?
SalesThumb is built for detailers: build-your-own package pricing (name and price your own tiers — however you actually structure a maintenance wash vs. a full detail), recurring maintenance plans with automatic scheduling and reminders (you collect payment at each visit), online booking, two-way SMS, and before/after photo galleries — all in one place instead of Square plus Calendly plus a spreadsheet.
Does it support recurring detailing plans?
Yes — SalesThumb's recurring plans auto-schedule the next visit and send a pre-visit reminder SMS (monthly wash, quarterly full detail), turning one-time customers into a predictable calendar of repeat business that fills your slow days. You still collect payment yourself at each visit — there's no auto-charge.
Can I sell monthly detailing memberships?
Yes — on the Pro plan, SalesThumb lets you build membership plans with a monthly or yearly price and the visits they include (for example, two maintenance washes and one interior a month), enroll customers, and log each visit against the plan's monthly limit. Members are billed outside SalesThumb for now; there's no automatic card charge yet.
Can mobile detailers use it?
Yes — SalesThumb is mobile-first: route-friendly scheduling, on-site card payments, and photo capture straight from the phone, so a multi-truck mobile operation runs on one back office.
What should a mobile detailer use if they plan to open a fixed location soon?
SalesThumb — the same account covers both. Mobile detailers get route-friendly scheduling, on-site payments, and phone-first photo capture today; adding a bay doesn't mean switching platforms, and running more than one location later rolls up under the same HQ view instead of forcing a re-platform.
Can customers book a detail online?
Yes — SalesThumb gives each shop a public booking page where customers schedule themselves: they pick a service, choose an open time, add their vehicle, and pay a deposit by card, and they get SMS reminders. Mobile detailers can collect the service address too, so you stop playing phone tag.
Does it do package pricing instead of line items?
Yes — SalesThumb lets you sell named good/better/best packages. Customers choose a level instead of pricing 14 line items, and your average ticket climbs because the middle package looks like the smart buy.
