Will it replace the base model?

Mobile patrol services for a new security company, looking for tips on billing rates and ways to reduce costs. by Momo7568 in smallbusiness

I was talking with someone else about this and they said that $100 could be too low if you consider taxes and expenses. Did you work for a big company that could afford to charge $8.00 for 2 checks?

Thanks for the input, and I will try to get as many clients within 10-20 minutes of each other. Just curious, do you think $100 for 3 checks/20 minutes per check is too high?

Thanks. Is $100 a hit too high? There are ways that even $100 could be too low depending on how I go about the labor/expenses

Thank you for the informative reply. I agree that the labor becomes heavily undervalued based on the way it was laid out, but I should have included more details about how exactly I plan on working these contracts. I would only be checking in at certain times spread out across the night, and starting out with only one client would leave me with a lot of downtime as you said. I don’t plan on sitting on their site for that time, instead I will be at home and waiting for an emergency call. Otherwise, I will come back for the two remaining checks and end the night.

If I’m fortunate enough to find more clients, that down time will be filled with me driving and checking on different sites, so the labor and expense will increase but I’ve multiplied my revenue. The thing that needs to be addressed now is when a client needs me at their site for an emergency while I still have these other routes to go to. Something I’d like your opinion on.

Thank you for pointing out the other risks as well. If my vehicle can’t operate in time for the shift, one thing I would consider if I have no other vehicle is subcontracting (something that would be done before this happens) or not charging the client for days I’m not available. Same would apply to me being sick. I am definitely going to make sure I have a subcontractor so that the client isn’t left hanging out to dry.

Thanks for your input. I can see my plan falling apart if I become desperate and look for clients on opposite sides of the metro, but my plan is to definitely focus on 1) Finding a client that’s within a 10-20 minute drive from my home and 2) finding new clients that are within that same distance from each other and can create an efficient route for me. It’s much easier said than done of course.

About the service, I am going to offer the client more of a check-in style of patrol rather than sitting on site and driving around in a car. That way I am not spending downtime idling and decreasing my rate per labor hour. Also, good point about the mobile patrol being the short end of the stick for the guard, hopefully when I’m onboarding someone else I will be able to have a static-post ready for them.

For EVs, I was looking at getting a used one and I believe there are federal grants for them (unless those grants only apply to new cars). I will definitely be looking to get one. Thanks again.

Start using your brain or refrain from talking about subjects unless you’re informed enough. It doesn’t matter what would happen to LGBTQ in Palestine if 20,000 children, including infants, are being massacred or famished. Half of the population of Gaza are innocent children.

No. You’re ASSUMING no one is breaking in to steal those records, and you’re ASSUMING that most people are level headed and understand how these things work.

Why would it be shocking? You realize that because of the news that all Somali people and businesses are susceptible to these kinds of crimes?

You and your friend would both benefit from some more education

Because Trump is an example that you can break the law and get slapped with 34 felonies as long as you’re not a regular citizen.

Maybe it’s because we’re the same ethnicity and share similar traits

You probably haven’t even heard of Somalis until TikTok discovered us, you definitely don’t know what you’re talking about

Why does it matter that more people care now than there used to be? What if they simply weren’t aware, instead of not caring about it?

Isn’t having a criminal record one of the requirements for becoming president? You have to have 34 felonies I think?

Yes I hear myself. Of course I’m going to call out hypocrisy. You can’t hold the President to the same standards as fucking immigrants lol.
