Hey man, I have a recommendation should do a video of a toolbox tour, basic tools. You need for this job as a apprentice. Been working at a unregistered shop while in high school for three years. And wanting to start buying my tools to work at a shop. And maybe another video of talking. How to get in this industry.
This is a prime example of experience and proper tools making this go much smoother and efficiently. A body tech should not be punished for being fast and quality based on repairs or procedures. If I tell you 550 dollars to fix your car, it shouldn’t matter how long it took as long as it’s correct. I guarantee his first repair did not go as fast and smooth as this one did. Great job per usual Marc! Sincerely, your trusted equipment distributor!
Mark having a very experienced sharp eye as you do, makes the difference between profit and loss with regard to the insurance report and amount claimed. You have that skill in bucket loads as you have grown up in this business all of your life. You will NEVER need to undersell yourself. 👌🙏
been a sub since your days with your bros; im a licensed collision and paint tech myself in toronto canada. i work commission as well, love the direction your channel has taken and the content you've been posting. keep up the hard work and killer posts bro 💪👊
People who THINK it’s easy are wrong…. Marc and his family are PEFECTIONEST !!! His level of perfection is what makes the difference in the end result….👍👍👍
I'm happy for you brother Body shops are super greedy around here. $1,200 to $1,400 a week 6x days. A good friend has over 15 years of experience and only gets $1,400 a week.
@@Motorheadco Well, kind of $60, actually $68.75 if you do the math, i get it, around $60. But what does the 22 hours have to do with the equation? You said you charged 22 hours. Is that the shops money then? Just trying to understand you logic.
@@erikthie2253no u work commission. The insuarance pays a certain amount of hours for repairs. So if I get it done quicker then I still get those hours
Mark, please stop saying you get too much time for a repair or they will reduce the times allowed because most body tech's are not as efficient as you.
@@ironmike6345 you pay so much because insurance is greedy, this job isn’t easy I’ve just been doing it for 6 years. Not to mention the toll it has on your health. Body techs should make more
Body work has always been priced with inflated hours at a lower labor rate. For example, Mechanical rate is $150 per hr and autobody is $70. I have never met a rich body shop owner. Comfortable but not rich.
Marc not only works hard but smart. Been a sub since day one. Mark can you plz pin this comment? Much love from NC. ❤

They're not just paying you for straight hours... they're paying for a knowledge, experience and a good work ethic!
$550÷22=$25

No wonder I pay so much for insurance

Pain and suffering lawsuits are what increase insurance. Insurance agents would love to total off cars before paying the million dollar settlements.
