A real eye opener. I watched the three videos yesterday and today timed one day's mowing. All of my properties worked out over $40 and hour but surprising to me was how the smaller properties were the best, some near $60 an hour. The properties requiring around 30 minutes to mow would be in low 40s. I intemd to keep tracking time until I know what I'm making on all properties and then I'll come up a spreadsheet of what I should be charging based on size. Thank you.
G16 = $43.72 (which puts you above $40). Excel counts the blanks (G7, G8, G12 ,G15) as a $0.00. Which is why it shows G16 at $29.17. Great Video! I know I should not be posting on a 5 year old video. haha. But it might confuse someone.
Your calculations are wrong. The $29.17 is wrong because it is rounding all of the spaces above it, including the ones you removed. This means you are rounding four jobs of zero pay. Notice that none of your jobs cost as little as $29 so how can they round to $29?
great information.... not there yet with pricing as precise as I would like to be. But, am finishing up entering my current customer in Service Auto Pilot and looking forward to using it to its fullest potential! -ABC LawnWorks, Inc.

how do you factor in vehicle fuel, mowing equipment fuel, oil costs etc?
