What is the  TRUE COST of your TRADESPEOPLE?

A lot of tradies and builders misunderstand how much their people actually cost their business, and, because of that misunderstanding, they undercharge for the labour they’re selling.

Labour is one of the highest costs in a trades business, and if you don’t charge enough, you won’t be profitable. 

You have to put time and energy into understanding your business’s numbers and making sure you run your business profitably.

How do you do this? 

I’ve made a tool called the Tradie Labour Cost Calculator – it calculates the REAL cost of tradespeople. 

Get it and calculate the cost of your people for how you pay them, and how you charge your customers.

And start charging enough to cover their costs to your business.

That’s your job now: to make sure your business IS profitable.
