Two‑minute worked example

How much is invisible work costing your practice?

Most fixed-fee firms have work that isn't fully covered by the fee. Estimate what that could be costing your practice.

Number of clients 100
Clients you suspect may be underpriced 15%
5%
10%
15%
20%
25%+
A starting estimate — test different assumptions.
Hours given away / month 8 hrs
Per affected client, on work the fee doesn't cover.
Your fully‑loaded hourly cost $40/hr
Wages, on‑costs and overhead — not the rate you bill at.
Potential annual profit leak
$57,600
$4,800 a month in effort your fees may not be covering.
What this means

If this estimate is even directionally right, there may be clients where the effort you're delivering isn't being reflected in the fee.

Your leak, per month
$4,800

An estimate is useful. Knowing which clients and services are actually causing it is better.
