So... what should my profit margin be?
Ah, the question that brings a smile every time. It's not just about the numbers; it's about your effort, your time, and your satisfaction.
It's tempting to look for a one-size-fits-all answer, especially when it comes to profit margins. Yes, we have industry averages that serve as benchmarks, but let's get real; your business isn't just any business, and you're not just any entrepreneur.
Consider this; working 80 hours a week to scrape a 5% profit margin might not feel rewarding. The same percentage could feel completely different if you're putting in 20 hours a week and drawing a wage on top of that profit. The key? Balance. Your profit margin isn't just a number. It's a reflection of your effort, your investment, and, most importantly, the value you place on your own time and energy.
So instead of aiming for a "standard" profit margin, let's talk about what makes sense for you. How much are you working, and what do you feel is a fair reward for that work? Your profit margin should leave you feeling valued and motivated. It's not just about surviving; it's about thriving; personally and professionally.
Remember, the goal is to build a business that supports your lifestyle, not one that consumes it. Your ideal profit margin is the one that aligns with your vision of success, compensates you fairly for your hard work, and supports your goals for growth.
