Hey team - just posted a new video breaking down one of the questions I get asked the most:
"What should I actually be paying my crew?"
If you haven't watched it yet, here's the short version so nobody's blindsided ๐
Underpay and you bleed good people.
Pay blind and you bleed margin.
In the video I walk through what each role really earns in 2026 - helpers, drivers, crew leaders, dispatchers, ops managers - and the pay model that keeps your best people without wrecking your numbers: base + tips + bonus.
Then I break down 3 bonus structures you can steal, and the 2-3 KPIs to tie them to.
And it's yours free: I put the whole thing into a one-page Team Pay & Bonus Kit โ pay ranges by role, the 3 bonus structures, and a monthly KPI scorecard.
There's a fillable version too, so you can drop in your own numbers and print it for the shop wall.
Grab the guide below (both versions attached).
Watch the video, download the kit, and drop a comment: what do you currently pay your crew? Let's compare notes.
