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
Margin and markup are not the same thing, and mixing them up is how businesses price themselves into a hole.
What you walk away with
The honest margin on every sale, and the price that hits your target.
How to use it
Takes about two minutes. Be honest with the numbers, the tool is not going to tell anybody.
- Enter what it costs you and what you charge.
- Read the margin. That is the percent of the sale you keep.
- Set a target margin and it tells you what to charge instead.
Put this tool on your own website
Free forever. I host it. You keep it.
This is a real lead magnet you can run on your own site tonight. Somebody lands on your page, plays with the numbers, sees what their problem costs, and now they are on your website instead of a competitor's. Costs you nothing, and I keep it working.
- Scroll up and press Put this tool on my website. The code appears right there, no form.
- Copy the one line you get.
- In your website editor, add an Embed, HTML or Custom Code block on whatever page you want it on.
- Paste it in, save, publish.
- Check it on your phone, then send people to that page.
Works on
WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, GoDaddy, Webflow, Duda, HubSpot, ClickFunnels, or plain HTML. Anywhere that takes an embed code.
What it costs you
Nothing. No monthly fee, no expiring trial, no watermark you have to pay to remove. If you get stuck putting it in, text me at (903) 500-8898 and I will help you place it.
