Worked example: a once-a-year tune-up plan with 10% off repairs
A once-a-year tune-up plan with 10% off repairs, on the free maintenance plan pricing calculator, comes to $180 a year ($15.00 a month, 1 visit).
| Step | The math |
|---|---|
| Labor per visit | (1.5 on site + 0.5 driving) × $32.00 = $64.00 |
| Cost per visit | $64.00 + $25.00 parts = $89.00 |
| Repair discount | 10% off $250 of repairs = $25.00 |
| Cost per member a year | 1 × $89.00 + $25.00 = $114.00 |
| Price | $114.00 ÷ (1 − 15% overhead − 20% profit) = $175.38, quoted as $180 |
| Members one tech can serve | 1,500 hrs ÷ 2 hrs per member = 750 |
At $180 a member a year, it takes about 17 plan members to pay for a year of QuoteIQ Elite ($3,000). Koira Front Office ($5,988 a year) takes about 34.
