Windshield Repair Forum

i want to do this full time and jump right in, but is that recomended. i have a home and many bills as i am sure all of you do. but, do you think the money will come in fast enough. i want to work, and want fleet accts, but will take all i can get. what do you think? anyexperiences just starting out, any advice would be awesome, thanks everyone....

All star...unless you have a lot of backup money i would advise against it..going full time it takes a while to get established and to get a lot of accounts.. do you have a full time job.. if so use off time to line up accountsand gain experience.. how long and how much practice do you have?

Research your area. How much WSR is going on and how much stone damage is happening? How is the competition finding there work? What is the local pricing? If you can answer those questions you will be on your way to seeing if you can jump in full time.

I can't tell you what tomorrow will bring for you. If I could I would be a rich man and not doing WSR. I can tell you that this business is not a get rich quick business. Sure you can make a lot of money, and they market it that way but it takes a lot of effort. Doing the work is the easy part, it is getting the work that is the hardest part. People just are not knocking doors down to get there windshields repaired. At least not in my area. You have to go out and make it happen. So if you do not fare well with rejection it might be a rocky path to follow. If you choose to do WSR full or part time, you have found a great place and bunch of guys and gals for advice. Best of luck to you.

I think I might qualify as part time I only work about 25 hours per week.

Do you go out and market to fleets and businesses during your off time screenman or are you living comfortably now?

25 hours includes marketing, and yes I live very comfortable thanks. Time management is a very important thing to master and a lot of people get nowhere near.
