friendships, and the support I’ve gained from the IDA have truly accelerated my journey more than I could have ever imagined."

"The IDA has helped me network globally within our great industry, and my language, terminology, and professionalism have grown as a result, which has yielded more bookings and a full diary of work. Therefore, it becomes a
pleasure as well as a privilege and honour to be able to undertake IDA committee and Board work to help the global IDA membership also grow and develop in their businesses."

"The IDA has given me a home to share my passion for professional detailing and training. It has helped elevate the Turtle Wax brand from being known as your grandfather’s wax to one that is accepted by all levels of car enthusiasts
and professionals. The IDA provides a platform for detailers to connect with others in the industry, fostering relationships, sharing insights, and collaborating on various projects. This networking has opened up opportunities
for us to learn from others, build lasting relationships, and even discover potential business partnerships."
-Jim Cozzie, CD-SV, RIT
"I joined the IDA back in late 2017. Since then, the IDA has allowed me to grow my business through the education and networking opportunities the IDA provides. Multiple opportunities have opened for me since joining the IDA
and getting involved with the committees, from finding new products to creating long lasting friendships with fellow members. Upon my renewal every year, I simply renew without hesitation."
