What is a minimum charge and why do you have one?
Paramount Cleaning Company has a minimum charge of £80. But why do businesses have a minimum charge? First, let's look at what a minimum charge is.
A minimum charge is different to a call out charge. A minimum charge is the minimum value of a service needing to be paid on completion of work, to ensure the value of the job covers the expenses to complete the job. A call out fee is paid regardless if any work is carried out, for example, an electrician examining a fault but unable to repair it. No work was conducted but a call out fee is paid.
So why have a minimum charge?
Whatever the profession, tradespeople have operating and overhead costs. These include Insurance such as public liability, vehicle insurance, health insurance, insurance of tools etc, Tax: road tax, income tax, national insurance etc. Transportation: vehicle purchase, vehicle maintenance, fuel, oils and lubricants etc. Administration: time spent completing accounts, sending customer communications, client management software etc. Tools: purchase and maintenance of tools and chemicals etc. Training: initial qualifications and ongoing courses. Trades association fees: for example National Carpet Cleaners Association. Reinvesting back into the business is also a crucial part of maintaining a successful business.
Of course after all this, we need a wage!
How is your minimum charge calculated?
In order to maintain the business and our high standards, we limit the number of jobs completed per day to 3. We determine a fair wage for our hard work which extends beyond the 'normal working day' (dealing with enquiries and invoices etc well into the evening) We calculate what all the expenses mentioned above add up to per day, and add this to our wage.
Wage + Operating costs = Minimum charge per job.
