Ian, great vids man. Learning a ton from you and it’s much appreciated. It’s great to see Canadian channels up and running. I watched the vid you made about competitive pricing and low balling competition doesn’t help anyone rather hurts the industry so that prompts the question, how do shops quote for work? What are fair prices? Thanks man and keep at it!
Hi Ian, thanks for video, would be great if you can tell that, in most cases do you have to pay your tooling guy monthly fee or tooling company just pays him?
No problem! We do not pay our tooling guys for anything but product - and you should never have to! They get paid by the company plus commission on what you buy from them.
Hi Guys, I agree with Ian, it works the same way he described here in Europe and more specifically in France. The only way I personally "pay" for the service some tool or machine reps give me is through a good shared restaurant time once or twice a year depending on what you decide ;).

As a shop owner do you earn a good income?
It's enough to be comfortable, but the margins aren't what they used to be.
