Dollars per windshield repair?

Take your monthly gross sales for windshield repairs, not including any other sales from additional products or services and divide it by the number of vehicles you repaired. Where do you stand?

I'd say thats pretty good screenman. I don't do any fleet or dealer work and my average per windshield is consistently around $60.

Gross receipts per vehicle mean virtually nothing. It's just a 'feel good' statistic.

Let me guess, you provide $20 dollar repairs daily and are fine with that? If that works for you,,,fine but it doesn't for everybody! Every market is different and I know your smart enough to figure that out. So, Puka Paul...why not tell us your secrets to making money in this biz?

I have to disagree puke pau. It's much more than a feel good stat. I average 8 to 10 jobs a day. I've watched my dollars per job increase substantially over the last couple years even though my total number of jobs has only increased slightly. So I'd much rather be averaging $60 per windshield than $45. I'll admit, it does "feel good" cuz that extra goes straight to the bottom line.
