TIPS & TRICKS

Want To See My MOBILE OFFICE?

"What's this? Do you have a printer in your car?!?"

I can't even count the number of times a client has asked me this after I presented to them a printed computerized quote on the spot.

Not only does a Mobile Office like the one I'm about to show you allow you to write and print estimates on the spot, but the fact that you have to leave the clients house for a few minutes while you do so, offers you and your clients an incredible benefit that might surprise you.

Be sure to watch the video for an insiders look at the MANY benefits of having a Mobile Office.

How To Be ACCURATE With Your Painting Estimates

To be able to give an ACCURATE Painting Estimate, you'll need to uncover the following 2 things:

  1. The NUMBERS
  2. The VARIABLES

When I say NUMBERS, this mostly means the square footage of the area to be painted. Since once you have this number, you can then figure out how much paint and labor hours will be needed.

HOWEVER...

The VARIABLES will also need to be factored in since those could make a BIG DIFFERENCE in both the labor hours and the paint that will be required to complete the project.

EXAMPLE 1:

Let's say you have 2 identical houses. Both have the exact same square footage. The first house has 1 color for all of the walls... and the second one has 10 different colors with multiple rooms having 2 different colors in them.

The variable in this example is the number of colors. And this will have a BIG impact on both the number of gallons of paint AND the number of labor hours that will be needed to complete this project

EXAMPLE 2:

Let's say you have the same 2 houses....

How to ESTIMATE a Painting Project

While I'm not a big fan of estimating painting projects on a per square foot basis, it's still good to understand the logic behind this system. In this week's video, I share with you the industry standards I was thought early in my career and the reason why I'm not a fan of it.

PRODUCTION RATES:
Normal: 200 sq/ft/hr to cut and roll
Hard: 100 sq/ft/hr to cut and roll
Easy: 400 sq/ft/hr to roll (no cutting)
2nd Coat: 60% of the first coat

$800, $2000 or $5000

My clients reaction, after she received 3 COMPLETELY DIFFERENT Prices to paint her home, really opened my eyes to a problem in the Painting Industry that I have since then tried to fix (or at least improve).

In this weeks video, I talk about the 3 REASONS why prices can have such a big gap so that all parties involved can be better informed and ask more questions to get to the bottom of the TRUE VALUE of each offering. Because in the Contracting world, the most expensive is not always the best (and the cheapest is not always the worst).
