Hourly vs. Sq Ft.

[GRGraphics]

We have a local shop who started sending all their wrap installs over to us and not knowing how long it would last we've priced it by the job. Just for the installation, what have you guys found works better pricing it by the hour or by the sq ft?

In a wholesale situation... Sq Ft is easier on the client, Hourly is easier on you. We typically Have 2 prices, Flat Sq Ft for most jobs and Complex Sq Ft for really intricate or Complex Curve wraps. then On top of that we add a modifier dependent on the client, Good clients are 1.25 down to .85 and PITA clients are 1.5 - 2.5.
