Project Profitability Calculator
A no-fluff calculator that shows whether your last 5 projects actually paid — and what to charge to fix it on the next 5.
Most creative businesses don't know which projects make money. They know which felt good. This calculator forces an honest accounting: real hours, real overhead, real margin.
Drop in your last 5 projects and you'll see — usually within the first one — where pricing is leaking.
What's inside
- Per-project margin calculator
- Effective hourly rate breakdown
- Target-price reverse calculator
- Annual capacity model
Who it's for
Anyone whose projects feel busy but the bank account disagrees.
