We try to attain a 50% gross proffit margin on parts. TRACS has the ability to set pricing any way you want. We mark everything up from cost. You can create a matrix that marks lower cost items up a little higher & higher cost items a little lower. Overall we want 50% GP. You really need to know how much gross proffit dollars you need to cover your expenses and make a little proffit. That will determine what your mark up needs to be.

I have been useing Napa Tracs for almost 10 years. I am happy to try to answer any questions you have and share how we do the things you are asking about. If you want to give me a call maybe we can walk through a few things over the phone. Mike Hal's Auto Care, Inc. 916-485-9215

I see the Napa Autocare Logo, have you looked at www.napaautocare.com? There is a lot of training available there. Both self paced on the web & instructor lead. Is there a Napa Business Development Group in your area? In our group we are constantly bringing training to Sacramento, and we decide what classes we want rather than waiting for whatever a vendor decides to bring. This month we have a management class for Service Advisors & Owners. We are also organizing our 3rd "Advenced Hybrid Class".
