Colorado benefits from skiing, drawing tourists from around the world in a way that Washington does not. Also, Colorado isn't surrounded by states with a lot of medical marijuana, and it's closer to the Midwest, South and Northeast. All of this has driven prices down in Washington for farmers like Lauerman. In the early days, we were able to get, like, $1,700 to $2,200 a pound, wholesale. Now it's like $700, $800 a pound, he said.
Keep in mind, these rates are based on agencies that are members of the 4A's, which are typically larger agencies. In contrast, the rates in smaller markets are typically more in the $100-$200 per hour range. Also, smaller projects typically go to the younger team members who bill at a proportionately lower rate.
Asked by David Hartley, classic car owner. Question answered by Mark Clark, former PBE jobber store owner and 24-year contributor to BodyShop Business. I believe by average cost per hour you mean door rate. I operate on the assumption that the average door rate across the country is between $42 and $44 per hour.The average cost for material might look like this: at $43 per hour, the typical RO would be $1,650.If paint and material on the estimate was around 10 percent, the answer is $165. Of that, 24 percent is clear cost, 32 percent is color cost, 12 percent is sand and mask.uestion answered by Mark Clark, former PBE jobber store owner and 24-year contributor to BodyShop Business.
