Profitize Consulting · Business systems for contractors
Pricing, estimating, software, and automation for contractors and home service businesses.
Think of me as a handyman for the business side of your company. I fix the pricing, estimating, and software problems that quietly eat your profit.
Now expanding to electrical, landscaping, plumbing, remodeling, and other home service trades.
What I do
Get more out of the software you already pay for, and stop doing by hand what it can do for you.
Know what every job has to cost to cover your overhead and leave a real net profit.
Faster, more consistent estimates, and a clear record of how each one compared with what actually happened.
Simple programs built around how your company actually runs, not a generic system you have to work around.
Gross profit vs. net profit
Most contractors know their gross profit. Far fewer know their net profit: what's left after insurance, trucks, office staff, software, and every non-billable hour. The gap between the two is often huge, and it's where busy companies quietly lose money.
I studied computational mathematics and understand accounting thoroughly. I'll make sure your overhead is built into every price, so every job you take actually makes a net profit.

A "40% job" can leave 12% after overhead. If overhead isn't priced in, it can leave less than zero.
How I work
Open to any contractor
One-off projects for contractors of any size. These don't involve my pricing methods, so I can take them on for anyone.
One company per market
My pricing strategies are my own, and I don't hand them to everyone. For pricing and profitability work, I won't work with your direct competitors in your market.
About
I'm an estimator, cost analyst, and programmer. I work with pest control, HVAC, hardscaping, and concrete companies, so I know how contractors actually operate.
I've helped multiple companies optimize their software and restructure their pricing strategy. I've also helped with marketing and automation, built estimating templates and estimating programs, and prepared estimates across trades.
I've been doing mathematical programming since 2012 and have read over a dozen books on running home service businesses. I've taught calculus at UMass Dartmouth and algebra at Wentworth Institute of Technology, so I'm used to explaining hard numbers in plain language and training people on new systems.
