Where This One Sits
How much revenue recurs?
How concentrated are the customers?
What happens when the owner leaves for a month?
How clean are the books?
Do the licenses, leases and contracts transfer?
Nothing answered yet, so there is no reading. This does not default to the middle: a midpoint shown for a blank form would say your business is average when you have not told it anything.
The drivers that move the number in this trade specifically are in the full Driving Schools guide. The picker holds every trade whose cited band is a multiple of one earnings figure; the 11 priced on cap rates, collections, revenue or two bases at once are named with their reasons rather than left out silently. Every cited band, with its drivers and source, is listed below on this page.
What Moves the Multiple
Transferable state authorizations and district driver's-ed contracts sell the top of the band while owner-taught operations with tired fleets sell far below it; the dual-control fleet gives an asset floor the other lesson trades lack.
