One question I get all the time is...
"Why do you keep going back to training?"
The answer is simple.
It's not because we don't know how to detail.
We already have the products, equipment, systems, and experience to perform professional detailing every day. We come because this industry never stops evolving. New products, new materials, and new techniques are constantly changing how we care for modern vehicles. If you stop learning, you eventually fall behind.
Every trip to Technician's Choice gives us something new to bring back to New Hampshire. Whether it's a specialized process, a new product, support for a challenge we're working through, or simply the opportunity to network with some of the best vehicle care professionals in the country, there's always value in continuing to learn.
A great example is Power-X. We helped test the product in real-world conditions before it was ever released, making us the first to bring it back to New Hampshire. The before-and-after photos on Technician's Choice's official sell sheet—and even their ink removal TikTok video—feature work completed right here at RAG's Detailing.
This trip has been special for another reason too. This year, my fiancée, Debbie Hill, was able to join us for the first time.
She has supported RAG's from the very beginning. She remembers when detailing meant a brush, vacuum, and a small collection of products. She's watched us invest in better tools, better systems, and better products over the years.
But hearing me talk about the training is one thing—being here and learning the "why" behind everything we do is something completely different.
Another milestone we're incredibly proud of is becoming an accredited ECP Training Center. That means we can now provide official training and certifications for our own employees right here in New Hampshire, developing them from their first day and getting them ready to go to Illinois for their master certificate.
Watching the crew I've built confidently step up, help other attendees, answer questions, and work toward earning their own Master Detailer Certifications. Seeing them grow into professionals who are now giving back to others is something I can't really put into words.
Learning never stops—and neither do we.
