Costing and Pricing

A very hands on, practical course, we deal with real scenarios and help demystify some of the complexities around costing and pricing, so you get the best possible results.
Show your employer you get this, or make it count for your business and you’ll never look back.
If you’re responsible for sales or book-keeping and accounts this mantra is key: ‘Turnover is Vanity, Profit is Sanity’
Our course takes a fine toothcomb through the ins and outs of how to make more profit, through effective costing of jobs and shows you how to use Microsoft Excel to help make calculations.
If you work in book-keeping or accounts or are a small business owner and need to know how to charge out time for staff, how to calculate profit on a job, or project profit in the next year’s turnover, this course is for you.
Similarly, if you’re a garage owner who needs to cost out parts and labour; a wholesaler struggling to make profit due to squeezes on margins; or a manufacturer trying to find the optimum price for their products, this course can help.
