Pricing Interiors Work

Furnishing packs, day rates and margins that actually work

An eye for a room earns nothing until you learn to put a number on the work, and this book deals only with the numbers. It explains why the three common ways of pricing interiors work are all wrong, what a day of your time is genuinely worth, and what margin a furnishing pack must carry to be a business rather than a favour. You will learn where to find local pricing data for free, why turnover is not income, and which of your income streams actually pays you. The cost chapter shows the costs furnishers miss when they subtract only product and delivery. Your prices are stress-tested against an empty diary, a late payer and a rise in costs. A complete worked example prices one job from first enquiry to money in your account, and the final chapter assembles a quoting calculator you can use in minutes and names the legal questions it cannot answer. Next in this series: “Contracts, Fire Regs and Furnishings”.
