BB cable installation waiting period

As the passed owner of a subchapter S home service Corp. it has been my experience that a one to two-week waiting period is ideal for truck roll efficiency.

The business I owned serviced the suburbs of Los Angeles. Job completion time per customer was 1-2 hrs on average. Crew per truck was one to two men. A 1-2 week waiting period was ideal for scheduling because I was able to reduce driving time from one job site to another because I was able due to waiting period schedule more jobs in the same geographic area per truck per day. A 1-2 week waiting period was also indicative of high demand.

In my business the length of waiting time was influenced by demand in their area. My dispatcher's priority was efficient use of travel time from job site to job site. As a result if a person specific geographic location had small demand compared to a area within my companies total service parameter the lower demand area would have a longer waiting period as the dispatcher would schedule that person further into the future while waiting for more people to request service in that area.
