Business/Professional Development/Prosperity Partners Seminars
LBM154: NEW-Building a Budget to Price Jobs Profitably
Ever get to the end of the year and your books show you made a profit, but you have no cash in your bank account? The number one reason hardscape contractors have the "show profit- but-no-cash-in-the-bank" symptom is overhead expenses. Overhead, if not properly accounted for, will crush you. Weston will lead a working session to teach you how to solve this dilemma by building a company budget that ensures you are pricing your jobs for profit, charging the correct rate per man-hour, and making sure your overhead and all costs are factored in. You’ll go home with free tools you can use to build your budget and start earning the profit you want from your business.
What we'll cover:
building a real budget with your numbers
estimating one of your real jobs
What to bring:
your laptop
your numbers (Profit & Loss statement for 2022, or anything that tells us
where your expenses were for 2022)
A real estimate you did recently
Objectives:
Real Working Session! Bring your numbers and learn what YOU need to mark up your costs when quoting
Learn what you should charge per hour
Understand how to recover overhead expenses effectively
