How it works

Your jobs already contain the answers.

MARJYN helps you find them. It turns what actually happens on your jobs into evidence you can use on the next one.

From estimate to evidence

Every job makes the next decision smarter.

  1. 01

    Tell MARJYN what the business needs to earn

    Add your business overheads and what you want to earn from your own time. This lets MARJYN keep three things clear: the cost of running the business, your earnings and the additional commercial return from the job.

    • Running-business costs
    • Owner earnings
    • Additional commercial return
  2. 02

    Price the work

    Add the owner time, employees, materials, subcontractors, travel and other relevant costs. MARJYN shows what the job could leave the business and what the proposed price means commercially.

    • Your time
    • People and materials
    • What the proposed price could leave
  3. 03

    Do the work. Then record what really happened.

    Add the actual revenue, actual costs and actual owner time. The difference between the estimate and reality is where the learning starts.

    • Actual revenue
    • Actual costs
    • Actual owner time
  4. 04

    MARJYN learns from completed work

    As genuine evidence accumulates, MARJYN compares appropriate jobs, categories, customers, expected and actual results, and owner-time economics.

    MARJYN starts cautiously. The picture gets stronger as reliable comparable work accumulates.
  5. 05

    Use what you learned on the next job

    Relevant completed work returns to the next pricing decision, helping you use your own experience instead of starting from a blank page.

  1. Price
  2. Perform
  3. Actuals
  4. Learn
  5. Price better
You don't have to start from zero

Add previous completed jobs.

If you have reliable records, 5–10 recent completed jobs is a useful starting point.

There is no minimum. Reliable actual figures matter more than quantity.

The work — and what it took from you

Profit matters. So does what it took from you.

A job can make good money and still consume too much of your time. Another can make less overall while producing a stronger recorded return for each owner day used.

MARJYN shows where recorded job-delivery owner time has historically generated strong economic returns. It does not pretend to know whether released future time will be sold or what its best alternative use will be.
