Its now wonder he has bought a factory of them.No wonder he can afford a Tesla
I meant to say 'not' taking advantage!I expect the vast majority of us could charge silly rates if we wanted to , and we'd probably get away with it too. I don't see the money as the main objective though. If I charged £100 p/hour I wouldn't have such a large client base, it would be more emergency call outs and new clients. I like my regular clients, it feels good to look after their electrical needs. That is part of the payment. Money is important though......
I'm not cheap. £60 for the first hour, then £40 p/hour, so I make enough money, but I feel it's the right amount to keep my happy, regular client base with me feeling I am taking advantage of the fact they will always use me.
As for the chap in the video, he is a likeable person and it genuinely sounds like he cares about the customer and does a good job. He probably gets at least £70 p/hour (out of the £80 he charges for himself and the apprentice), that's a very good wage. Perhaps he is erring towards being more of a business man than an electrician though and I wonder how long you keep the enjoyment of your working life then.
