How do you price your services? ex: Exterior: Wash and Wax $X Wash. chemical paint cleaner, wax $X Wash, clay, polish, wax $x Interior: Wipe down, vaccum and glass $X Wipe down, vaccum, shampoo carpets and glass $X How do you guys do it?
I don't think I am ready for customers yet lol took me 2 hours to wash my car and polish the hood lol. Maybe I need a rotary
I also charge by the hour but the constituents in my area like to see a concrete price scheme. I estimate my average amount of time for a wax/wash or full polishing and multiply it by my hourly rate. That then becomes my "starting from" price.
Thats what I do as well. You know you will be making what you need to for a certain job and you can adjust the price easily for vehicles needing more work.
My basics I have packages, which will normally give me my hourly rate, then for the intricate stuff like polishing I charge by the hour due to the fact I don't know how the paint is going to act.
