Still not sure what do do with this blog...

It haunts me with Adsense revenue, haunt because it so low, ha ha.  The bright side, and the reason I keep coming back is; it ranks well in Google search for a Body Shop Estimating software.  We make available as an alternative to the expensive ones.

So, I'm thinking since we are helping so many Body Shop with Estimating and Managing their repair work, I thought this might be a good opportunity to mention we also provide web design and web management services to small body shops as well.

We price our designs low (but still keep the images custom so they do well in search results). because most of the revenue comes from the maintenance packs, depending on the goals you have and your budget.  Most shops choose a basic website design, you can leave it like that and pay basic hosting for only $9.95 a month or we can optimize for search, add galleries and albums on a regularly scheduled basic updates during the maintenance process for under $40 monthly.

When was the last time you hired an office employee for under $40 a month, I know right?  Good deal.

Why do we do it?  We had a body shop for 8 years, been in the Industry for 30, we have a soft spot for the body shop industry and I'm a car guy.

Cheap body shop estimating software? Free from Monthly Fee's?

Yeah we get that one alot and experienced the frustration of looking for one.  When our body shop was transitioning from hand written vs computer generated we found we were stuck in the middle between moving from hand written to using a cheap program that could automate a lot of the math and hand writing parts.

The main problem was:  The high monthly's with name name brand CCC one (pathways), Web-est, ABFsystems, Crash Writer, Mitchell and the others.

The competition is getting tough and the prices are coming down but, there still was not an answer for us, so we developed our own cheap body shop estimating system using Microsoft Excel(TM), developed specifically to fill the cap between hand written and expensive data base driven.

The workbook we developed helped us tremendously by allowing us to print a customer info sheet, look over the car with a paper copy and make abbreviations that we understood, enter that in the computer and use long descriptions that your customer will now understand, enter the labor hours as judgment items and all the math is done automatically and the information filters from page to page allowing you to track parts, make customer notes, print RO's and even a profit summary to make sure you made a profit or if you didn't, let you know how much money you lost on the repair.

We found it to be a cost effective and downright cheap body shop, collision shop, custom shop automotive repair estimating system solution.
