One Thousand per Day

[SmogTechmm23]

The shop down the street is claiming to be averaging one thousand a day. Now I don't know if that is  gross or net after expenses of the the day but it seems somewhat outrageous since I'm doing four to five smogs a day.

 Gross? That is Chicken Feed.
20 at $50 is $1000. Simple.

 With DMV crap we can Gross $4\5,000 a day. GROSS.
Now NET that is a different story.

 My best year? My Taxable was @ $12 a car. Worse @$6 a car.

 When I owned the building. With Rent\DMV fees we saw over a Million a year. That was then NOT TODAY.

If you had the cetia data then you could see if thats correct.  Then, or irregardless you have to make a business plan on how to be profitable.  More is not always the answer especially if its for less.$$
Experience, planning, advertising and having someone you can talk with is key.

Just to add some number to crunch. We did 38 OIS and 17 BAR-97 today and it wasn't non-stop. There are busier and bigger shops than me around. So lets say average is $40(Besta's number)x55(my number)=$2,200 GROSS. If you are at 45% profit margin you would NET $990 in one day. That would leave $1,210 per day for overhead.

I bet these guys do better than that. http://www.smogstopsacramento.com/

Higher volume doesn't necessarily equal more profit either. You are close in volume but as we talked the other day, Your prices are higher and rent is less plus you do DMV.

 I do DMV as a Zero profit. It is my lose leader.
