TRADIES, Dont get off the tools too early!
There is a big push at the moment from trade business coaches and industry experts for trade business owners to "Get Off the Tools". This is every trade business owners dream. But you need to make sure you don't make the jump too soon.
Many trade business owners aim to get off the tools too early. Before doing so, your business must produce sufficient margin to cover overheads, staff costs, your personal and family income requirements, and your lifestyle goals. The margin must be generated by your staff once you are no longer doing the work. It is vitally important you understand your charge out rates and margin vs markup.
Without this financial foundation, if a lack of margin exists, there is a real risk that day-to-day cash flow pressures will lead to the use of owners capital, cash reserves and funds set aside for tax obligations to fund the business operations. This will lead to ATO debt and financial stress down the track.
We help all types of trade businesses understand their businesses with the goal of increasing profitability and getting off the tools, while at the same time providing day to day bookkeeping services.
