How to Set Up Rates (Training 1)

To set up Rates, follow these simple steps:

1. Go to Settings > General Settings > Rates:

2. You will see the following box. By default the system suggests 5 types of hourly rates (Discount / Regular / SubPeak / Peak / HighPeak) for 2-4 movers and a truck + an additional mover and an additional truck per hour. By putting a tick next to the types of hourly rates or the number of movers + Truck  / hr you choose what kinds of rates and services you actually offer and make necessary Settings for each line and column:

What is the difference between Hourly Rates?
  • Discount: it is a good idea to give discounts on the days that are not very popular for moving, as a rule, in the middle of a month, or when you do not have any moves at all.
  • Regular: you apply regular rates to the days when your schedule is not partiqularly busy.
  • SubPeak: it is applied on the days when you have got more jobs than usual.
  • Peak: you can use this kind of rate when your have a lot of work to do or at the weekends when there are more clients who want to move.
  • HighPeak: this rate is used when your schedule is super busy. It is especially popular on the 1st and the last days of a month, so you can make them HighPeak and, as a result, get more money.

3. To apply the necessary Rates to the days you want go to Settings > General Settings > Calendar:

4. Find the necessary month and click on the date you need. In the pop-up menu the rates will be displayed. Choose the rate as it is shown below:
