Tips for Better Job Profitability

Track actual time

Many jobs take longer than quoted. Track real hours to improve future estimates.

Review parts markup

Parts should contribute 30-40% of total profit. Adjust markup if needed.

Most workshops underestimate overheads. Include everything from rent to toilet paper.
