Service Area

[John Harrison]

What is a good service area? What do you charge for traveling outside of this area?

I was thinking of a 25 mile radius.

[Blaine Wiley]

Set your area as large as you need to acquire the amount of business you want.

If you want to do 10 per week and you can do that within a 10 mile radius, great, if not expand.

In small towns your area may be bigger, in densely populated areas, your area may be smaller.

A good service area is where there are lots of inspections.

I don't have a specifically defined "service area", but inspections way out in the boonies generally have higher fees.

If the client is willing to pay, I'm willing to drive.

[David P. Valley]

I raise my prices for anything over a 45 minute drive.
