Introduction
You followed the plan. You invested in quality tools. You registered your business properly. You secured the right insurance. You set up accounting systems. Your business looks professional.
But here's the uncomfortable question I need to ask: Are you actually making money?
Not just revenue. It's not just about keeping yourself occupied. I mean real profit—the kind that lets you take a vacation, buy that new truck, save for retirement, and actually pay yourself what you're worth.
If you're like most contractors I talk to, the answer is probably "not as much as I should be."
