Me and my father own a plumbing business in Hungary, we could never charge 350 an hour because in two hours we would eat up a normal person's monthly salary. How could we scale?
I mean you need to figure out what it costs to run the business. You need to know your numbers for a company in Hungary. Your labour cost will be different, you expenses will be different.
@@mathewwerner509 I mean it’s impossible for us to scale to $1M a year , even if we had more employees, we would have to do like 20 jobs a day. Because we can’t charge customers here more, at most like $60 an hour, but even then they would consider calling someone else who does it for cheaper. Average salary here is about $500-$750 a month. We can’t charge them $350 an hour, impossible.
I want to do drains but dont want to charge hourly but instead flat rate pricing, this is confusing me cause some drains take longer and you still cant clear them. Any advice??
Drains was the last thing I went fixed price on. Clearing drains is so much more profitable this way. Occasionally one doesn’t go as planned but you just suck it up as most work out in your favour. I’m very clear what the job includes and what it doesn’t. I explain there is a 2% risk gear could get stuck clients cost to remove gear, 2% risk the drain is collapsed and can’t be cleared if that happens locate and further work required outside of the scope. I give options even if I think it will be the most expensive and I’m pulling a toilet I’m happy to try the cheaper option first for them. Once you know what hourly rate you work off you price the job based off that and allow a bit of fat. No drain or cctv inspection is charged out less the hourly rate I have calculated
All it takes is to do it! Start now figure out later

What's your guy's suggestions when you send a link to a customer for a review but they don't write a review do you resend it?
In my experience, the only way you can confirm is if you’re there and you ask for the review and have them do it right in front of you.
Shout me out if it’s live!

The podcasts are good but the other guy keeps changing the subject during a conversation and keeps stalling / derailing you
Joels a great addition to this show. Maybe you should unsubscribe
