OVERHEAD

When I was busiest and distributing tile, my monthly overhead was just under $15,000. When I was going at full capacity, about $90 to $120k, I hardly even noticed it. When things changed and I was doing $40 to 60k per month, it felt like it owned me.>>>

Well, I don't know if it helps, but I found ways to cut my household overhead. A lot!

Yes you are in the ballpark with a 31% overhead.
The figures don't lie.
I couldn't believe that my real overhead hovered between 25% to 28% but just came to the conclusion that the figures needed to be accounted for, which caused me to increase my prices and that was fine, until the past two seasons, where other contractors are surviving on lower numbers.
So, how can You/I look at reasonable ways to cut our overhead?
