How Does Profit Margin Consulting Work for Your Business?
Profit margin can vary depending on factors in your business that you may not see if you are busy running a business. Profit margin consulting helps you look past revenue alone. We dig into your numbers: costs, billable hours, pricing, and utilisation rates, plus many more factors that influence your business margins. That way, you see what’s working and where you’re losing money. It’s all about turning messy figures into clear insights.
If you run a professional company, you already know how complex it can get when it comes to your numbers. Relying on your accountant will only keep the legal reporting in place for your business and does not deliver you future results unless you can do something with the data to influence the future of your business. Lewis brings structure, benchmarks, and systems that have been developed from coaching, being a fractional financial performance expert, and being a trusted consultant with hundreds of businesses globally, and building 8 of his own companies.
This is about making better choices from clear data that your business is telling you, which lead to better outcomes, not just looking in the rearview mirror from accountant reports.

What Could You Achieve with the Right Profit Margin Consultant?
Working with a profit margin consulting firm and expert gives you clarity and control. You’ll see where time is wasted, where pricing needs work, and where your business could scale smarter. I’ve helped services firms shift from break-even to solid gross profit margins in under a year.
One client was billing plenty of hours but still bleeding cash. We restructured their pricing model, adjusted team utilisation, and within three months, their profit doubled.
Another example is a client that is a manufacturing business that was taking on more work, making more revenue, but was frustrated that they were busier but nothing was changing in their profit, and what the business owner was personally paying themself. Sometimes, all it takes is seeing the numbers through a different lens, then making the right moves.
