The $110,000 Math Problem Most Landscapers Miss- MDL Episode 392
If you’re slammed with calls but still stressed about cash, this episode is for you. Scott breaks down the ugly math: many landscapers run around 4% net profit when they should be hitting 12–15%. More leads just magnify weak pricing and messy production — and that’s why “busy” can still mean “broke.”
Listen to learn the exact places to start: audit your last five jobs, track labor burden (not just wages), measure overhead recovery, and do real job costing. Small price increases and cleaner systems can turn the same revenue into tens of thousands more profit — so you can take a paycheck, replace equipment, and actually own a business instead of a job.
