Regardless of whether you provide a simple service, such as pruning bushes, or installing a complex three-tier deck, people will want to know in advance how much the work will cost. As a result, you need to develop good assessment skills from the start. The problem is that evaluation is a science, and it’s easy to make a mistake that can cost you a lot of time and resources. Your mission here is to determine what your expenses will be, and then add profits. Your expenses will include everything from materials (plants, mulch, topsoil to labor (both your own employees and subcontractors), equipment (yours and everyone you rent), and general business overhead (everything that you plan to demand as expenses for doing business, for example, expenses for a home office, gasoline, etc.).
You better indicate the specific services you offer, the materials you provide, and everything else that is relevant to the job. The tools of the “Everis” platform will help you with this, using the dispatcher’s panel you can enter the current prices and notify your customers about them at any time. And also set personal discounts.
Finally, you can calculate your bet based on how much money you would like to earn in a given year. For example, if your goal is to earn $ 60,000 in your first year of work, you need to calculate the monthly income. It is best to use statistics tools in the work, then you can see not only the amount of income but also the debt and the number of deductions to employees. And these are always moving amounts and depend on workload. Use the statistics and planner tool in the “Everis” platform and plan income with an accuracy of a cent.
