I ran a window cleaning company I started as a solopreneur and it was a lot. I realized that as I began to do more jobs I was busier but not making anything. Turns out a ton of others experience this too, even further down the business path than I am.
I have a background in engineering so I like data and solving problems and making equations for my business. So I did this with values like CAC, LTV, avg. ticket, etc… and once I saw how they connected it was literally an optimization game.
That being said, I’d frame this business as solving the problem, “you’re doing more jobs and growing but not seeing much profit.” I’d then help them understand and dig up their numbers, track them semi-automatically and help optimize them.
Does anyone see a value in this? I’d make it a very personal business.
