The Rework Counter

The rework counter

What the redos are costing you

A new hire who never learned your process makes a predictable error. Then your most experienced person stops his own work to fix it. That is your most expensive labour cleaning up a gap you could have closed on day one. Nobody counts it, so here is the count. No email needed to see your number.

Work that had to be done again. Be honest, not generous.

Travel, diagnosis, the fix, the conversation with the client.

Usually your best person. Wage plus burden.

Put 0 if none.

So the number means something in context. Rough is fine.

Fill in redos, hours, hourly cost and revenue.

What this means

And that is only what you can count. It leaves out the job you did not win because the client watched you come back twice.

Want the full breakdown and the one-page checklist template for the task causing most of your redos? I will send both, and the checklist is the thing you hand the next person who starts.

Name, email and phone please.

Your numbers stay yours. I use them so the checklist is built for your most common redo rather than a generic one, and I will call once to talk it through. No list, no drip, no newsletter.

On its way

Thanks, that is on its way.

Check your inbox in the next few minutes. If it has not arrived, look in spam and mark it safe so the rest gets through.

If you would rather talk it through, book a time and we will work out which task to write down first.
