This is an estimate
This tool returns an estimate based on the numbers you entered. Your real result depends on your own costs, rates and conditions. Check it against your own records before you make a decision with it.
What this tool actually does for you
The problem it points at
Ten percent off sounds small. On a 30 percent margin it just deleted a third of your profit on that job.
What you walk away with
You stop discounting reflexively, or you at least know the price of doing it.
How to use it
Takes about two minutes. Be honest with the numbers, the tool is not going to tell anybody.
- Enter your price, cost and the discount you give.
- Look at the profit you kept.
- Look at how many extra sales it would take to make it back.
