Start A Paintless Dent Repair Company

Are you looking for a business opportunity that will give you the freedom to enjoy the good things in life? Would you be willing to make an investment in yourself if it meant you could be financially independent and not have to go to work for someone else? Then read on and prepare to have your imagination tickled.

Building a Paintless Dent Repair business of your own would help you achieve all of these objectives and more. To do paintless dent repair, or PDR, you simply use specialized tools to return automotive body panels that have been damages by hail or car doors to their original condition without using any paint or other conventional auto body repairs.

The PDR process does not require you to have any kind of past experience in the auto repair industry at all. There are tons of very successful technicians who never worked on a car before they got into the industry. However, since it does require a degree of manual dexterity, it is easier to learn PDR if you are at least handy enough to change a car tire without help.

Starting a new career in the pdr industry will require a substantial upfront investment for training and tools but, if followed through on, will pay for itself very quickly many times over. The fact is, if a technician gets on the right job, they can easily make back every dime of their start up expenses in the first month and be making pure profit from that point forward. You see, once you have covered your start up costs, there are no other financial outlays beyond your travel expenses.

Once you decide to build your own paintless dent repair business you will need to decide on a pdr training program that fits your schedule and budget. This is truly not an area to pinch pennies in. You can spend a several hundred dollars on a DVD, five tools and a light and spend the next six months trying to figure out what they are showing you. You can spend a little more and go to a pdr school somewhere for a few days and have a little bit better idea about the system. Or you can spend a few thousand dollars and go to a reputable school for a week or two and get a working grasp on the process.

A set of quality PDR tools is the second investment you will have to make in this endeavor. I say quality because you do not want to cut corners on this purchase. Cheap tools are nothing but trouble and will cost you money in lost productivity. Go ahead and spend the money on quality tools and you will use them your whole career. Keep in mind that a technician is only as good as his tools.

The last major expense in your new paintless dent repair business start up is your living expenses for the first couple of months while you are training and getting started in the business. Every business takes a while to get in the black and, fortunately, the dent business does it a lot faster than most (usually a couple of months) but if you dont allow for this time without an income you risk failure.

Once you are working, however, your income potential is only limited by your willingness to work. Three to five thousand dollars a week income to the technician is considered a moderate to average job in the hail damage repair business. When you understand the income potential, its easy to see why so many entrepreneurs are considering starting a paintless dent repair business.
