How we calculate this
Two value streams compound for shops that migrate to SalesThumb:
- Revenue lift from good/better/best tier discipline, automated review requests that drive repeat customers, faster quoting that captures more warm leads, and reduced no-show rate from automated confirmations. Conservative midpoint per starting tool: ShopMonkey 3.5%, OrbisX 4.5%, TintWiz 4.0%, Tekmetric 3.5%, Excel/Paper 8.5%.
- Time saved on admin work — quote generation, scheduling reconciliation, customer follow-up, photo organization, warranty paperwork. Hours/week saved scales with bay count up to a cap. We value operator time at a floor of $40/hr, which is conservative for most owner-operators.
The "net of subscription" line subtracts SalesThumb Pro ($4,188/yr) from the total. HQ tier costs more but the value also scales — this calculator uses Pro as the conservative reference point.
This is an estimate, not a guarantee. Your actual results depend on how aggressively you adopt the tier-pricing model, how quickly you turn on review automation, and what your customer mix looks like. Most shops hit these numbers within 90 days.

How the math works
The estimate combines two effects every shop feels after switching: revenue lift and time saved on admin. Revenue lift comes from faster quoting, tiered good/better/best pricing, automated follow-up, and fewer missed bookings — we model it at 3.5%–8.5% of annual revenue depending on what you run today. Shops coming off spreadsheets or pen-and-paper see the biggest jump; shops on a generic tool like ShopMonkey or Tekmetric see a smaller, still-real bump.
Time saved is modeled at 4–12 admin hours per week — quoting, invoicing, scheduling phone tag, and review chasing — scaled modestly with bay count and valued at a conservative $40/hour across a 50-week year. We deliberately undercount: no value is assigned to better reviews, warranty upsells, or the sales playbook's 12-month follow-up sequence.
Compare the result against SalesThumb's pricing — plans start at $159/month per shop — and the payback period for most shops is measured in weeks, not years.
ROI calculator FAQ
How does the SalesThumb ROI calculator work?
It adds two effects of switching: a revenue lift of 3.5%–8.5% (based on which tool you use today — shops coming off spreadsheets see the biggest jump) and admin time saved of 4–12 hours per week, valued at a conservative $40/hour across a 50-week year. The full math is shown beneath the result.
Are the savings estimates conservative?
Yes, deliberately. The lift percentages are midpoints of what migrating shops report, owner time is valued at only $40/hour, the year is counted as 50 working weeks, and hours saved are capped at 3× no matter how many bays you run.
Do I need to enter my email to use the calculator?
No. The calculator runs entirely in your browser — no email gate, no form, and nothing you type leaves the page.
How much does shop management software typically save?
For a one-to-three-bay tint, PPF, ceramic coating, or detailing shop, moving from spreadsheets or a generic tool to purpose-built software typically recovers 4–12 admin hours a week and lifts revenue 3.5%–8.5% through faster quoting, automated follow-up, and fewer missed bookings.
