TintOhio Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 I was curious if anyone can help me price out/ sales techniques on PPF? In August I had take the training class and they basically said to use the xpel site for pricing which I have been, but I can't hardly get customers to bite on ppf! I have a steady flow of tint custys that I just mention PPF to them and educate them on the product but they are not willing to pay the price for these installs. I install XPEL and LLUMAR fillms. Any help is appreciated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTS Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 We seem to see that the majority of PPF is sold at the same time as the new car is sold.... Very few people like the idea of putting out the money for ppf after they drive off the lot.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shwusyrtnts Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 I have a hard time with this too. Pricing is the hardest on ppf because it is all different skill levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro3 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 You should price to what's comfortable for you now, Build a customer base then alter prices accordingly. We all pay the same amount for our films over here but there are some very large differences in pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LockedDown Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Make sure not to price so low that if you make a mistake that your upside down on the job or make no profit. Good advertising and like someone else said new car owners will seek you out. Make sure your installs are really good and word will get around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulk Auto Films Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Here are some good ranges: http://www.pacificautofilms.com/installation.html You don't want to under cut your competition too much or you will hurt yourself in the long run.

PPFdistributing Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 I would recommend talking to your sales rep from both companies. They should be able to provide you with that type of support. That's their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPEL Jeff Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Definitely call and talk to your rep. Pricing is one of many factors that helps get business in the door. Other factors to consider: - Coverage offered - How/where are you promoting - Dealership vs. retail Chat up your rep about the best strategy for your market. It can take a while to build up momentum early on, but if you do it the right way, it will make for good long-term business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capital PPF_Norm Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 And don't use Llumar, unless they have made a drastic change to their film lately to stop the yellowing in 6 months... I priced lower when I moved to a new location, but as people saw the quality of my installations, I raised them on up. The pricing mentioned earlier are lower than what I charge where I am, but in colorado you wouldn't get those prices... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 I'd start out by only quoting the partial hood and fenders for (example)$300. Then tell them you can do the other pieces for an additional cost. If they balk at that then tell them its not for everybody, only the smart consumers realize the value it the product.
