Job costing and margin checks usually wait for the month-end because pulling the numbers takes a whole evening. These three prompts ask Barry to read your job and accounting systems and hand back the health check, the profit moves, and the cost to date on a single job — with the gaps called out.
“Review the business for [date range] using the information in our job and accounting systems. Summarize revenue, profit, open quotes, unpaid invoices, job performance and workload. Show the key numbers, biggest risks and the next actions you recommend.”
Get:A complete, data-backed view of what is helping or hurting the business.
Every hour you stop spending on this is money back in your pocket. Put in your own time and dollar figures and the worksheet shows what you make back per year — your numbers, not ours.
Hours only. The bigger number is the overrun you catch mid-job instead of at the invoice — put your own figure on that.
Your inputs, your math — for money + margin. Not a Barry result claim.
Same [date range] every Monday, so weeks compare.
The "still needs adding" list is your leak report.
That's when a ranked list is worth the most.
No. Barry reads from the job and accounting tools you already run and summarizes across them. The books stay where they are; Barry does the cross-referencing you'd otherwise do by hand.
As accurate as the data in your systems. That's why the prompt asks Barry to list what still needs to be added — the gaps are the point, because they're the costs that usually go unbilled.
