YouTube transcript excerpt of Mike Andes discussing the need to set an operational benchmark for capacity and pricing. He recommends a benchmark around 550 (or possibly 600), states he is currently at 572, and flags that anything over 500 requires either raising prices or increasing capacity (another truck and more employees).

Questions this video answers

About 550 (possibly 600).

572.

Anything over 500.

A) Raise prices; or B) Increase capacity with another truck and more employees.

The problem. I see with you. And same thing as with me. You can always do a little bit more. Like, and if a customer calls, like, yes, I'll do it. Right. Like, you're going to get to 700 and you're going to be like, oh, I can try to do a couple more. Right. So it's like, we need to set what that benchmark is. In my opinion, that should be probably 550 or 600. Well, I'm at 572 right now, so I think 550 is the number. It's like anything over 500, we either A, raising prices or B, we have to increase capacity with another truck and more employees. Okay.
