One of the biggest challenges business owners face is pricing their jobs profitably. Getting caught up in the excitement of getting a new client or a big job is easy, but if you don't have your numbers right from the beginning, it can lead to financial stress and potentially losing money.

If you're worried about your competitors charging higher prices than you are, you need to focus on your numbers to ensure that you're making enough money to cover your overheads and pay your employees well. By doing so, you can retain the a-players and not have to chase cash flow constantly.
It's time to stop working harder and start working smarter by focusing on the value you bring to the table!
