Know Your Numbers Workshop: Build Your 2027 Budget in 1 Day

Know if you're undercharging, if you can pay yourself, and if you can afford the next hire. For landscape owners and operators · With Sahra Linnemann Without a budget, every 2027 bid is a guess, and your overhead comes out of your profit. In this one-day workshop, led by landscape business owner and industry consultant Sahra Linnemann, you'll build your full operating budget for next year and have confidence in your profits. Not a template. Your budget. You walk out with: • Your full 2027 operating budget, built from your own financials, ready to run the business on • Your real net profit number, and the gap between it and where you want to be • The markup to put on every estimate so overhead gets paid for, not absorbed • A 90-day plan, so Monday morning you know what to change first • A method you can repeat, so next year's budget is yours to build • 30 days of LMN access, with your budget already built inside it, and the ability to export your budget work Why a budget changes the margin You hit your sales number and the year still ends tight. Usually it comes back to a sales target based on last year plus a little hope, field labor priced at the paycheck wage, equipment never priced to replace, and overhead and subcontractor costs that never make it into an estimate. A real budget puts all of it behind every price. Taught by an operator who built it for her own company Sahra Linnemann co-founded The Green Executive and Linnemann Lawncare & Landscaping. She built this budget for her own company and has taught hundreds of operators across Canada and the US to build theirs. She'll walk you through the method, step by step, so you leave able to do it again.
