Most accountants give you:

Turnover.
Deductions.
Tax liability.

Useful for HMRC but not much use for running your business.

Here are the 3 numbers you actually need:

Gross margin: What's left after the cost of each sale. Tells you if your pricing works.

Cashflow forecast: What's coming in and going out over the next 90 days. Tells you if you can pay the bills next month.

Break-even: The amount you need to earn each month just to keep the lights on. Everything above it is profit.

The first three are what every accountant gives you. The other three help you grow.

Knowing one set keeps you compliant. Knowing both is how you actually run a business.

Pricing is the thing most small business owners get wrong. Not because they charge too little, but because there's no real thinking behind their number.

Here are the five most common mistakes we see, and what to do instead.

1. Guessing the price: You pick a number that feels about right. The problem is you don't know what one job actually costs you to deliver. Work out your real cost first. Time, tools, tax, your hours. Once you know that, your price has a foundation.

2. Saying yes to work that loses you money: Without a minimum, it's easy to take on jobs that aren't worth your time. Set a floor: the lowest price you'll accept and still come out ahead. Anything below it is a no.

3. Copying what others charge: Their costs aren't your costs. Use the market as a guide, not a rule. If you're cheaper than most, ask why. If you're more expensive, make sure your work shows why.

4. Charging for the time, not the result: "It only takes me two hours" is the wrong place to start. Charge for what the client gets out of the work. The work might be quick. The value rarely is.

5. Never reviewing your prices: Costs rise. Skills grow. The market moves. Pick a date once a year, look at your prices, and adjust on purpose.

MISTAKE 1
Not Recording Transactions on Time
Waiting too long to write down sales, bills, or payments can make your finances messy and hard to manage.

Fix:
Pick a regular time to update your records and use accounting software to help track transactions.

MISTAKE 2
Putting Expenses in the Wrong Category
Putting money in the wrong group can make it hard to see where your money goes and can cause tax problems.

Fix:
Check your categories often and use software or a bookkeeper to keep them correct.

MISTAKE 3
Mixing Personal and Business Money
Using the same money for personal and business things can make your records confusing and taxes harder.

Fix:
Open a separate business bank account and keep personal and business money apart.

If your bookkeeping feels behind or unclear, it can be sorted with the right structure in place.

We help business owners do this every day.

Pricing is the part of running a business almost nobody talks about...

It usually comes down to these four simple number, once you know yours, pricing gets a lot easier and straightforward

Let's say you charge a customer £500 for a job.

1. What the job costs you (cost of sale). The bits you spend because you took the job on. Materials. Hiring help. Software. Say that adds up to £200.
‌

2. What's left after that (gross profit). So £500 in. £200 out. £300 left. That £300 is the money the business actually keeps from the job, before anything else.
‌

3. How much of every pound is real profit (gross profit margin). You charged £500 and £300 stayed in. So for every £1 the customer paid, 60p stayed with the business.

That's the number to watch. If only 20p or 30p of every £1 stays with you, your price is probably too low for the work you're doing.
‌

4. What you actually take home (net profit). Out of that £300, you still have to pay rent, bills, your phone, your tax, and yourself.

Whatever's left at the end is your real profit.

Pricing doesn't have to be complicated. It just has to be informed. The four numbers above are where that starts.
