62. The 5 ‘Profit Numbers’ Every Tradesman Must Know To Avoid Going Into Liquidation


Listen Later

Just last week, I helped save an electrical contractor from going into liquidation and he had no idea his business was even in trouble. 

Within minutes of looking at five key numbers, I could see that taking on a £110,000 commercial job would have sent his business bust in less than four months.

In this powerful podcast episode, I break down those five vital numbers every trades and construction business owner must understand and track. 

These numbers can be the difference between staying afloat and going under.

Even if it looks like you're making a profit, your business could still be heading for serious trouble if you're not keeping an eye on these figures.


WHAT YOU WILL LEARN AND KEY ACTIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:

1. How I’ve just saved an electrical contractor’s business from liquidation

2. 5 vital numbers that you must be tracking to increase profits

3. Discover how to work out your Gross and Net profit margins

4. Learn how to price your jobs correctly and increase profit margins

5. Learn how to work out your real hourly rates instead of winging it 

Listen now, you may be making the same mistakes without realising it.
