The mobile carwash business is a very simple business and you would think it would be easy to manage. However, it is not because all of your mobile carwash trucks are out and about all day long doing jobs at customers locations and it is hard to manage the employees when you cannot see them. However there is a way to manage them and to use the innate characteristics of the species in such a way that the business teams and crews manage themselves. How so you might ask? Well, what way to do it and also prevent employee stealing, since it is a cash business; is to hire a crew leader and driver of the mobile carwash rig and pay him a salary plus commission. Then for all the people on the crew pay them at an hourly wage. This will mean that the people on the crew work very hard so someday they can be the manager of the crew or the crew leader and get a regular salary with benefits. Since the crew leader is being paid a commission and a bonus on what the crew does he will keep the crew moving along at a brisk pace even though the employees being paid by the hour might wish to slow down. Additionally, the crew leader will never want to steal the cash from the business because someone on the crew will turn him in to get him fired so they can have his job. The crew leader will not want anyone on the crew to steal the money because it comes out of his total sales and a percentage of that is his commission. Please consider all this in 2006. |
