The Numbers a Painting Company Owner Should Watch

You do not need a dashboard full of charts. A handful of numbers tell you whether the company is healthy.

Estimates Sent and Approved

How many estimates went out this month, and what share were approved?

Sold Backlog

The value of sold jobs on the Waiting List. A healthy backlog means steady weeks ahead.

Average Job Size

If small jobs dominate, raise your minimums or market bigger work.

Receivables

Unpaid and overdue invoices. If this grows, tighten card on file.

Reviews

Your average rating and how many new reviews came in.

Sales Tax

Run the report for each filing period.
