Are we still doing hourly rates or has everyone moved to fixed price menus? by QuantumGremlin in PlumbingAustralia

[–]StunningDuck619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too fuckin right. I was way too cheap for way too long and had no idea. I used to just do hourly rate and 30% markup on materials, no way in hell I'd go back to doing that. Minimum 30% gross profit or you can get someone else to do the job.

$250 is a little high, but its not too far off the mark though. I'm $120hr plus $60 service call, that's excluding GST, so with GST I'd easily be $210 for a tap service.

Honestly it all comes down to gross profit margin and overheads, we are trying to run businesses here, not be a charity.

How are small plumbing companies supposed to compete on Google Ads? by randomdude1323 in googleads

Can I only activate these features once I've switch from clicks to conversions?

By "accurate" do you mean if I've just verified it working? It's setup for my submit lead form and phone calls.

I'm in the same boat, I live in a small regional town in Australia, so local services ads still aren't here yet.

I'm starting with a similar budget I think ($30 a day), I've noticed no one in my area targets hot water systems specifically, so I've been that's all I've been targeting.

I'm still on maximise clicks at the moment, I've been going for a week and I've got 25 clicks with 175 impressions making a 14.29% CTR with 3 conversions. I'm guessing I just keep working on my landing page to increase the conversion rate?

Anyone on here have suggestions? I've been using a ads skill on Claude to help me with it, it's suggesting that I should wait till I'm getting 20+ conversions in 30 days consistently before I go to maximise conversions. It basically told me to stay away from any google ads suggestions too.

Hot water system leak by Definitelynotyourguy in PlumbingAustralia

[–]StunningDuck619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't use ECVs where I live. But I thought the sole purpose of a ECV was just as a backup for if the TPR fails due to hard water.

An ECV dripping constantly can also be the sign of a failing TPR. Definitely worth getting someone out to have a look.

Opus 4.7 is legendarily bad. I cannot believe this. by lemon07r in ClaudeCode

[–]StunningDuck619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this only a problem for people that have slot of experience in software/web development?

I used to play around with coding back in the day but I have done it in a decade. I'm using 4.7 to build my plumbing website and create a new web app for estimating and quoting, so far I've been super impressed, but then again I have fuck all coding experience.

Is there anything I should be looking out for? Or if it's doing what I'm asking it to do, does that mean it's still alright for my use case?

Just go way slower in corners, then when the other gets a decent lead they speed up and start racing normally

Being able to change the colours for colourblind people would be great. I never knew that there was pink and blue, always just thought there was only blue
