Default Upcoming dent day?

Just wondering if there are any dent days coming up in August. I have a couple on my daily I'd like to get pulled, but I might just pay a visit to a PDR shop if nothing's planned.

Thanks

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe turnout at the last dent day was low. Not sure if that was a flake issue or not. My point being is if you have them too often and attendance is low, it will discourage the dent guy from doing future dent days.

How many cars or how much does he need to justify coming out?

I would think its a win-win situation for guy (if he is doing this on the side) being that he's getting paid in cash, no tax; all pocket.

I don't know, as I wasn't there.

I can't say at what point it's worth it for him to do it, but it's not like we are his only potential client.

i'll chime in since i've been orgainzing these dent days lately.

every time i put one on, i get 15 confirmed cars and about half show up. i remind and remind people to make sure they are coming or to let me know to take them off the list up until the day before it goes on.

dent repair people charge $80-100/dent normally. rates have been $35+/dent for our dent days.

if there is a minimum of 12 confirmed cars i will work on getting a saturday AM dent day going for the middle of august. taking a deposit might be a good idea....
