    Not a bad week for me, sure went quick though. I'm just now putting the finishing touches on a 2.4 million dollar bid, then it's off to lunch for some beer.

    It's two pitcher Friday!


    Peace Out~:D

    20-25%. It really depends on the client. This one will end up somewhere in the 25-30% though. My last project, although a bit smaller made 52%.

    The 25-30% is in line with the bids we receive. We also get crushed on labor and windshield time but its just a fact of life.

    We are not communist... and every1 must feed their families.

    Right?

    I will make as much as I can for my company, I'll mark it up as high as I can. But, I can make just as much once the job is going. My little 52%'er only had 24% on it at bid time, I more than doubled it.

    Teamwork between myself and the job foreman. It really comes down to management.
