How to Use This Calculator
1. Enter your current workload. How many jobs do you do per day, what is the average price, and how long does each job take?
2. Set your employee wage. This is the hourly wage you would pay an employee (not the billable rate). Include a rough burden estimate or use the raw wage.
3. Compare the scenarios. The table shows how solo, 2-person, and 3-person teams compare on jobs per day, revenue, payroll, and gross profit.
4. Read the recommendation. Based on your numbers, the calculator tells you whether adding a team member makes financial sense.
