Greg Lobsiger is a body shop owner out in Indiana at Loren's Body Shop where he does about $300k/mo which is about 3.5 cars/day or 65 cars/month. He says "It's not about creating dollars. I want to take money home. I work very hard. I want my technicians to make very good money. Without question, I want to take care of those people. I better make stinkin' good money and that is what it comes down to."
But how do you know if you are profitable in your shop?
Greg gives us some great takeaways and is a fantastic resource to help  figure out what our numbers should look like and how to do the calculations to see if you are profitable.

Technician Cost Equation:
For 4 months you take the total technicians average cost per week (gross pay) then divide by the billed hours average per week. This gives you the cost per billed hour.

Where you want to be...
Unloaded: 16%-18% of sales should be your technician cost
65% Labor GP - if you bill $50 worth of labor you should pay out $17.50 to your techs.
50% GP on Paint & Materials

Reach out to Greg and he'd be happy to help!
