Reviewing Your Revenue Model

Good afternoon QuickBooks Community! Is everything going well? I would hope so. Today, I was thinking about when you last reviewed your revenue model? This is basically a model that helps you determine if your business model and the success of your small business will create enough income to cover costs. If you havent, I found six questions to ask yourself to build or rebuild your revenue model.

  1.  What type of value is my company selling to my customers?
  2.  Where is my value compared to the competitor’s value?
  3.  What do my customers think about the value that I will give them?
  4. How many products and services you will sell with your revenue model?
  5. How will you charge for your value?
  6. How much will you charge for your value?

 

I hope asking these questions will give you a better understanding of your position and allow you to make adjustments or changes as you see fit. Until next time my Community family, be safe and take care. Bye for now.

Reviewing Your Revenue Model

Hello

I was specifically looking at my pricing. When I transitioned from working for big corporations in accounting to doing small business bookkeeping & light accounting (not tax) I was not sure how to price my services. Since I was new, I didn't have a vast experience to draw on and although I completed the pro advisor program, I wasn't ready to declare myself fully ready. I went to a QBO conference and after asking around figured the rates vary but for most was about $50/hour. Starting out needed clients I priced myself below that.

Now, I am very efficient and skilled and hourly rate is not working very well. I see many people who are using a retainer type billing and earning more money. What would be a city location rate for like full boat bookkeeping about 40 hours a month?
