Yupp, I made a post like that a few days ago. Glad you found it informative. I find that many craftsmen just try to "feel" a good price, instead of actually doing the maths, and getting it right. It annoys the hell out of me 🙂

I'm with you sWe, I have a pricing system on a computer and then input every individual item, I cannot guess a job I've made so many mistake's if do it that way

That's what I will do when I go solo 🙂 The former, using a spreadsheet or something, not guessing... :grin:
 
welcome to the forum....you have your work cut out if your "boss" has, should we say a "variable" tolerance threshold!

BTW, I dont use a spreadsheet for pricing, and i don't use the "feel" factor (tried and lost money!) - Invested in a copy of Sage Accounting - it gives me the ability to quote etc., and lets me enter all purchase notes and convert quotes to invoices, o bank rec's and everything - saves a fortune in accountancy fees come year end too - also then creates a customer database for "marketing" too!
 
Welcoem to the forums Cameron. You are right just to pick the guys brains to get started and get a foot hold into the industry. Once you start building a rep you will come on leaps and bounds. Loads of good info on here, don't be afraid to ask.

Grumpy
