Service pricing calculator: build a quote from your costs
Enter your own time, job costs, quote-based fees, and target margin. The result is a cost-based quote for the scope you entered.
Calculate all five sessions and planning work before dividing the package quote by five.
A five-session package with one planning block and a facility share for each appointment.
Editable example inputs. Replace them with your own numbers.
Owner delivery time: 7.00 h
Based on the assumptions you entered, before tax.
Based on your inputs, not a market rate or after-tax take-home pay.
(7.00 delivery + 1 other hours) × $25/h + $0 other labor + $50 direct costs + $20 other fixed costs = $270. $270 ÷ (1 − 0% fees − 25% margin) = $360 after rounding up to the cent.
Cost coverage: $270 ÷ (1 − 0% fees) = $270.
Owner pay is included as labor cost. Quote-based percentage fees are subtracted in the denominator.
Suggested equivalent: $72.00 per session across 5 sessions. Total quote comes first.
Enter and confirm your low and high total owner hours and material costs. These are planning assumptions, not market ranges.
Add both values to compare.

Add both values to compare.
Enter a positive quote to see its profit and margin.
Start with the actual deliverable and billing unit: 5 sessions in the editable example. If the customer’s scope differs, change task quantities, hours per item, and billable unit count before relying on the result.
Illustrative inputs, not observed local prices.
7.00 delivery hours + 1 other hours at $25/hour = $200 owner labor. $50 direct job costs, plus $20 other fixed costs, gives $270 fixed cost.
With a 25% target margin and 0% quote-based fees: $270 ÷ 0.75 = $360 exact minimum target price.
Cancellation, travel, and facility terms need to be stated in the client agreement.
The result covers only entered costs and the owner pay target. It is a before-tax operating estimate; it does not establish a local market rate or legal requirements.
How many sessions, planning blocks, facility charges, and follow-up tasks does the package include?
If the package gains sessions or programming work, add their full cost before recalculating any per-session equivalent.
The example covers 5 sessions. Divide the full quote by this count only when it matches what the customer will actually buy.
This page uses the QuoteForProfit cost-based formula and explicitly labeled, editable example assumptions. It does not use an external market price table. Method updated 2026-11-06.
Enter your own time, job costs, quote-based fees, and target margin. The result is a cost-based quote for the scope you entered.
Both methods start with an estimate of the work. The difference is how the customer sees and accepts time risk.
Allocate recurring business costs to a job using a clear period and expected workload.
Margin measures profit as a share of the selling price. Markup measures profit as a share of cost.
