Know if the job is worth taking before you quote.

The problem

The price is not the profit.

Most jobs are priced off the obvious costs. The costs that get left out are the ones that quietly remove the profit. QuoteWorth asks you for each of these, so the job is measured against what it actually takes to deliver:

• Materials and components
• Employee labour
• Owner time
• Contractors
• Equipment and tools
• Travel and delivery
• Overhead
• Contingency

QuoteWorth does not discover or detect your costs for you. It works with the numbers you enter.

How it works

Three steps for one job

1. 1

   Enter the real costs behind one job.

   Materials, labour, your own time, contractors, equipment, travel, overhead and contingency — as you know them.

2. 2

   Choose the profit you want.

   Set a target margin, or a target rand profit for the job.

3. 3

   See what the job needs to be priced at.

   Break-even price, target price, expected profit or loss, margin and markup, the gap to your proposed price, and an upfront-cash deposit indicator.

What you get

For one job

• Estimated cost to deliver the job
• Break-even price
• Target price for the profit you selected
• Expected operating profit or loss before income tax
• Profit margin and equivalent markup
• The gap between your proposed price and your target price
• A deposit indicator that covers the cash you need upfront
• A red, amber or green decision-support status when you enter a proposed price
• A printable, saveable result report for the job

Who it is for

Owner-led businesses that quote

QuoteWorth is built for owner-led South African businesses that quote customised jobs and projects, where every job is priced on its own. Examples, not limits:

• Trades and contractors
• Installers and fitters
• Agencies and studios
• Professional-service businesses

Boundaries

What QuoteWorth is not

QuoteWorth is not quotation or invoicing software, not accounting software, not a CRM, not inventory software and not project management. It is not accounting, tax or legal advice, it does not decide your VAT registration, and it is not a subscription.

It does not guarantee that a job will be profitable, and it does not guarantee that a customer will accept your price.

Privacy

Your job numbers stay with you

The costs, prices and margins you enter for a job are held in your browser session for the calculation. They are not stored in the merchant entitlement record. The backend keeps only the minimum payment, access and legal-acceptance evidence needed to sell and deliver QuoteWorth.
