hey mike kelly here i want to make a
00:02
quick video about
00:03
digging into your numbers weekly in your
00:05
business uh today’s sunday when i’m
00:06
actually making this business and
00:08
it doesn’t matter the day that you
00:09
actually go in and set aside to dig in
00:12
your numbers but i preferably
00:13
like sundays i try to get up before
00:15
everybody in the house
00:16
and literally dig into the numbers of
00:19
the previous week
00:20
um i ideally like sundays is because it
00:23
gives you a really
00:24
good look at what happened the week
00:26
before and it allows you to set some
00:28
goals for the week that you’re getting
00:29
into
00:30
a quick early sunday or late sunday
00:32
rhythm
00:33
i really really like that and the idea
00:35
is that it’s going to create a sense of
00:37
urgency to see if you’re on track
00:39
budget versus actual where your expense
00:41
is higher or lower
00:43
and where were you going but literally
00:45
diving in
00:46
to those numbers on a weekly basis
00:48
preferably on a sunday morning or sunday
00:50
night before you start it’s going to
00:51
give you a clear picture where
00:52
you were last week and where you want to
00:55
go
00:56
next week so highly recommend diving
00:59
into your numbers
01:01
uh if you don’t have your budget in
01:02
quickbooks i really recommend
01:04
doing so but running a quick accurate
01:07
basis
01:08
um actual verse budget for the month and
01:10
year to date taking a look at that
01:12
so it’s the first thing i’m looking at
01:14
the next thing i’m looking at is our
01:15
actual verse budgeted
01:17
man hours in the field so what do we got
01:20
going far is
01:21
where we at budget below or over for
01:23
each crew each division so i have a good
01:25
look at where we’re at
01:26
uh for last week and going into this
01:29
week
01:30
have we already dispatched those jobs in
01:32
our crm
01:33
and um basically seeing
01:36
are we setting ourselves up for success
01:38
going into next year or next week
01:41
and then the final thing is um
01:44
just going into taking a look at our
01:45
labor and how are we situated for
01:48
uh the rest of the season so you want to
01:50
be going in and
01:52
looking at budget versus actual in your
01:55
quickbooks budget the next one is
01:58
um how do we look for budget versus
02:00
actual
02:01
for labor and really the third one tied
02:04
into that is have we set ourselves up
02:05
success for scheduling
02:07
um for the amount of hours or revenue we
02:09
should be building out each day
02:11
in each week so comments questions drop
02:13
below callahan’s corner you drop
02:15
the questions and we answer them live
02:16
right here on facebook digging into
02:18
financial numbers today
02:20
and a possibly weekly rhythm on either
02:22
sunday morning or sunday
02:23
evenings we’ll see you soon
