Re: One Tone Sq.Ft. Pricing

D@mn how did I miss this mess? I know you only have 6 years experience, but come on. You have OH just like everyone else - phone, advertising, gas, vehicle, tools, incidental supplies, etc... Don't get me started on paying people illegally either.

It's great that you can make money at $89 a pop but if you want to join the big dogs & not get snapped at like a little Chihuahua - I suggest you not tell the forum members to shut up, & start doing some research. First I would recomend pulling a quick search on the words going rate & pricing on this site, between all our sarcasm you will find some good nuggets of information that you really need to learn.

Thus endeth today's nice lesson

Wow, I think I was the only person in this whole thread that tried to help you out.

I read through a lot of these post and all I see are a bunch of haters.

Keep your chin up buddy and keep pushing that $89.00 special. I think you will do fine.









Until wise painter reads this

Its great!!!! But everyone is asking for sq.ft. charges, wall ceiling and trim same color, customer provided paint, what should I charge?

Man, he said "tone" instead of "color", he just ain't worth it.
Even that n00b boobyarco didn't say "tone".
