Description
RoughEst Instant Estimate Calculator allows website visitors to easily and instantly calculate a rough price range estimate for your services.
This plugin adds two instant calculators to your widgets panel:
1. Cost Per Square Foot Calculator
- Customer enters two values
- Calculator multiplies them to get the sqft
- Multiplies that number by your cost-per-sqft
- Generates total and displays a price range
- Range is based on -/+ % of the total (ie. 60%-120%)
Example (Cost Per Square Foot):
- Customer types in ’10’ for both values
- Sqft calculator multiplies 10×10, produces 100
- Your cost-per-sqft is 100, 100 x 100 = 10,000
- 10,000 is the base number used to find the range
- Low range set to 60%, 60% of 10,000 = 6,000
- High range set to 120%, 120% of 10,000 = 12,000
- Price range displayed: $6,000 – $12,000
2. Cost Per Run (Single Value) Calculator
- Customer enters one value
- Multiplies that number by your cost
- Generates total and displays a price range
- Range is based on -/+ % of the total (ie. 60%-120%)
Example (Cost Per Run):
- Customer types in ’10’ for the single value
- Your cost-per is 100, 10 x 100 = 1000
- 1,000 is the base number used to find the range
- Low range set to 60%, 60% of 1000 = 600
- High range set to 120%, 120% of 1000 = 1200
- Price range displayed: $600 – $1200
