Group rate discounts - What do you guys offer?

[Petrucci_M3]

Hey guys,



So I have a client that is interested in having approximately ten vehicles worked on, and I was curious to what you guys normally do for a group rate on set group of vehicles.



Five - 15% off my normal price

Ten - 20% off my normal price



Does that sound fair? Thanks to those for any advice or input. Take care!

Full corrections?

Full corrections?

Yes sir, it would be for a full interior (2 step polish) and full exterior. No leather treatment or engine detailing.

I wouldnt discount, I'd do free work. Interiors are like what, 2 hours tops on smaller cars (assuming they are smaller cars) usually, typically an hour. instead of $50 off, I would spent the extra hour working at no charge.



After all, he is using you for a reason, not for the discount...right?

I would discount 10% at most.

This. The margins in detailing aren't such that it lends to discounting. I prefer to throw in extras that add value for the customer but don't cost me much and don't erode my profit margins.

I wouldn't offer a discount on the first time. I might offer a discount on routine washing after that.

:chuckle: Depends on the types of interiors he gets. Don't make me link some of the vehicles I've had through the shop, lol
