As some know already, currently i have a business called SchoTech that does computer services after hours during the week and sometimes on Saturday mornings. I am at the stage in my life that ive actually had enough of doing it after hours as i don't get any enjoyment out of doing it any more like i used to. I'm contemplating about doing something different like installing performance parts on cars, doing engine and gearbox changes and doing general maintenance services etc on all cars for people.
Most know that im pretty clued on with what i can do on a car and that is why i have put up an EOI to see if anyone would like me to provide my services for their cars. I do have to admit that im not a full bottle on knowing exactly every single thing on every single car, but it doesn't take me much to work out how to do it and what to do.
To start with my service charges are most likely going to be some were around the $88 per hour mark for starters. Eventually i will be charging a certain fixed rate on certain services done on vehicles, but for the moment, i really haven't sat down and thought about that just yet. All services carried out would included the owner of the car supplying the parts up front. I honestly don't want to be the one paying for parts upfront with then some people suddenly changing their minds saying "i don't want it anymore" or "i can't afford it now". You're the owner of the vehicle, you supply the parts. I just merely fit them to the car for you. Pretty plain and simple.
Same would apply for engines. I don't want to be the one to supply or get an engine for the vehicle owner. It is up to the owner to get the engine for me to then fit into the car. I don't want to be the one liable for an engine if it suddenly blows up. I just want to fit in the car and that is it. Tuning of the engine would have to be done some were else for the interim.
As time goes on and "IF" things progress to get bigger with more work, i will look into expanding the business to another level. But for the time being, i just want it to remain basic and start from there. My future plans are maybe to startup a performance workshop with a dyno and tuning facility done by myself but for the time being, this is simply not possible for me to do.
All jobs are to be paid for when the vehicle is ready and there will be no "mates rates" or "i will pay you later" deals. If you don't have the money, sorry but don't bother seeing me as i don't want to have to chase you down for money. I absolutely hate chasing people down for money. It is the one thing now that drives me nuts on a daily basis. I HATE IT!
So all in all, i would like to know who would be interested with me working on their cars? I haven't set a start date as yet for commencing work. Please let me know your thoughts and questions.
