Calculate your hourly rate as a beauty pro
Your hourly rate is the most important number in your business – and the one most often guessed. Yet it’s pure maths.
Add up your fixed costs honestly:
Rent, materials, insurance, software, training, reserves: everything that comes up each month belongs on the list. Only when you know your real costs do you know when you start earning.
Sellable hours, not calendar hours:
Not every working hour is billable. Consultation, cleaning, admin and breaks all eat time. Work with the hours you realistically sell to clients – often far fewer than the calendar suggests.
The number that changes everything:
Fixed costs divided by sellable hours gives your minimum hourly rate. On top goes your profit margin. With the profit tools in BeautyCore you can run this calculation in minutes – profit included.
