Financial Master Class: For Landscape Professionals - Roll Up Your Sleeves and Dig Into Your Numbers
Virtual Event - January 5 - 6, 2023
This third-annual 2-day virtual Financial Master Class will give you the financial tools and benchmarks you need to greatly improve the performance of your lawn and landscape company.
This event runs for 4 hours each day, with interactive breakout sessions so you can share and learn from other smart attendees in my community.
This will be 95% Jeffrey Scott, learning my latest thinking on all things financial.
If you attended last year, you will benefit from these new elements:
- The impact of inflation and scarcity (labor, fuel, equipment and materials) on the industry and on your revenue and profits.
- Insights into a better budgeting strategy
- Predictions on the 2023 economy
Using our template, you supply us with your numbers (Nov ’21 to Oct ’22) and we do the rest.
Register before Dec 1st to enjoy the early bird discount. Each attendee needs their own ticket.
THIS 2-DAY FINANCIAL MASTERCLASS WILL EQUIP YOU WITH THE FOLLOWING TOOLS:
- 2022 PROFIT/LOSS AND BALANCE SHEET BENCHMARKS: Each participant will receive benchmarks by revenue segmentation and by “best in class.” You will also receive benchmarks from the previous 2 years, to see how your numbers have changed!
- DIVISIONAL BENCHMARKS BY GROSS PROFIT: You will learn where you are excelling and where you can do better in terms of "GPM, Throughput, and Net-Of-Subs."
- PRICING/MARK-UPS OF LABOR & SUBS: You will see how much you are marking up labor and materials compared to others, and where your hourly pricing compares to others; this is critical in the time of inflation.
- OVERHEAD BENCHMARKS: You will learn how fat or lean your "overhead is compared to production staff", and how you compare with other companies.
- INCREMENTAL PROFIT ON INCREMENTAL SALES: You will learn how to drive net profit on the incremental sales using my newly revised "profit pyramid."
- MISTAKES TO AVOID: Learn which key mistakes to avoid as you navigate fluctuating demand, inflation, labor supply and material scarcity
- CREATE SKIN IN THE GAME... with your team members by successfully implementing incentives and open book management. Avoid the classic mistakes that Jeffrey has uncovered. Learn the best ways to share financial reports to better educate your team.
