Business Exit Ready

Free tool

What is being the business costing you?

Move the sliders or type your own numbers. Every field is optional. You'll see how many hours you could hand over, and what that time is worth to you.

Count it all: on the tools, quoting, admin, phone calls at night.

hours

Quoting, pricing, key customers, sign-offs. The work nobody else can do yet.

hours

Phone off. Not checking in.

weeks

Leave it blank and we use the profit you'd like below, divided by 2,000 hours.

an hour

Used to work out your hour if you leave the box above blank.

a year

A guide only. Wages change with your trade, town and the role.

a year

Your result

35hours a week you could hand over
1,750hours a year back to you
  • You could hand 35 hours a week to a team or manager.
  • Over 50 working weeks, that's 1,750 hours a year back to you.
  • At $100 an hour, those hours are worth $175,000 a year to you. A good manager might cost about $110,000 a year.
  • Your hours are worth $65,000 a year more than the manager would cost.
  • Your business can't run without you for a month yet.

Part of your week still has to be you. The rest could move to your team, one job at a time.
