Yes I agree 100% with you.I also was in the Dealership biz for many years in sales and its just what he says.For me to control my income I have to do other things also.Paint touch-up and scratch repair/headlights really help to even out your income.This way it becomes not what you do but how many hours you want to work.Its easy to put a day together anytime if you diversify your services.
