The Year

Every job this year made what it said. The year is short $67,000, because every rate was a guess about a count, and only the year can check the count.

Video coming

The sheets are ready now. The episode lands here the day it's up.

What this one covers

  1. 1

    Four rates, four counts (crew days, the hour, the truck, the machine), each a little off, all in the same direction.

  2. 2

    The lines that never had a rate at all, and what the year adds up to against the $108,000 the rates promised.

  3. 3

    Next year's six numbers, each with a reason you can say out loud.

The sheets

This episode hasn't been recorded yet. The sheets go up here the same day it does.

Prices are mine. Yours are different. The math is the same.

Who made this

Ledge is software for landscape design-build. These sheets are the thinking underneath it.

Every number on these sheets is the kind Ledge carries for you on a real job: the burdened hour, the man-hours a price buys, what the crew actually did against it. The first ten shops run Ledge free; we make money only on payments. If you want to see it on your own jobs, there's one person to talk to.
