Rate Calculator

Pricing so you profit is the goal of the Hourly Rate Calculator. This product is added specifically for commercial cleaning company owners. Understanding the impact of your hourly rate on EVERY job is critical to your immediate work and your long-term viability as an owner and service provider. I know many of your customers want the best price. I don’t blame or shame them for that. It’s YOUR job to educate your clients and prospects that the “best price” also includes the quality of service.

A low price that comes with below-average-service is NOT the “best price”.

What the “BEST PRICE” Includes

No customer I’ve ever met said, “The price was low and the service was pretty poor. I’m OK with that.”

When janitorial companies focus on GETTING the work instead of getting profitable work, everyone loses. Pricing your services isn’t about “matching the market” or undercutting the previous JanSan provider. It’s about understanding what it actually costs you to do business. That is the information you need to be armed with to ensure your hourly rate is calculated correctly. You need to know and account for every expense of your business. YES, I DO mean every single expense, every single hidden overhead, every factor that eats into your profit margin. And I mean everything.

Rate Calculator and Your Profits

Many clients hate to hear that you focus on profit. Performing excellent cleaning services should be your first order of business. And following that, profits. Every cleaning company owner needs to get this in their head – LOUD AND CLEAR. You absolutely must build profit into your rates. That is NOT a matter of greed. That is simple economics. Profit allows you to fund equipment upgrades, keep your business growing, hire good front line cleaners and manage emergency needs. Most cleaning companies aim for 10-15% profit margin.
