Find out what you actually have to charge.
Most contractors have never run the one number their whole life costs — so every price is a guess. Run yours in two minutes. Then set up your financials, free: your BASE, your overhead, your floor, how you price a job and how every dollar of profit gets split — saved to your free account.
Built by a 25-year contractor. No account needed to run your number.
Your BASE and your floor.
BASE is what your life costs the business — fully funded, with savings, giving and taxes covered. Your floor is the lowest hourly rate that pays for it. Price under the floor and you’re paying the customer to work for them.
A What your life costs — every month
Mortgage or rent, utilities, vehicles, food, insurance, debt, phones, kids — all of it. Don’t know it? Switch to line by line.
Change any line, add your own, or add a whole category — boat payment, horse feed, a parent you help out. If it leaves your account every month, it goes in.
B Then your floor
Never price your labor below . Under it, the job is costing your family money.

Not a course you watch and forget. Every lesson is a short video from Del and then the work — on your numbers, saved to your free account as you go. All of it is free.
Your BASE
What your life really costs the business every month — fully funded, not scraped together.
Your overhead
Why most of it already lives inside BASE — and the few costs that exist only because the business does.
Your floor rate
The daily and hourly number you never price under, built on your real days off and holidays.
Pricing a job
Check a job against your floor, fix the price when it comes up short, and charge right for material.
Your profit split
Tax, reserves, marketing — every dollar of profit given a job before you spend it.
Your price book
What you actually do, priced per unit off your own floor and how fast you work.

A free live training on Zoom with Del. The whole two-part system — BASE, how your business funds your life, and BALL, how your pay earns raises as the business needs you less — plus what Blue Collar Funded is and how it runs. Bring your questions.

See the bundleWhat’s the catch?
Is it really free?
Yes — your BASE, overhead, floor rate, pricing, profit split and price book, every lesson and worksheet, and the live training. No card to sign up. Command Center is there when you want it: $49/mo on its own, or $99/mo with your own website.
How long does it take?
Your number takes two minutes. The six lessons — the part that sets your pricing — are an evening or two. Your progress saves as you go, so do a step on a lunch break and pick it up tomorrow.
I already have a business. Is this for me?
Especially. Most contractors who’ve been at it a few years are busy and still broke — that’s a pricing problem, and it shows up the minute you run your floor. Run it and see where your last job landed.
Where do my numbers go?
Into your own Blue Collar Funded account and nowhere else. The same account opens your Command Center, so nothing has to be typed twice.
Do I need to be a GC?
No. Remodelers, handymen, painters, roofers, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscapers — if you sell your labor, the math is the same.
Stop guessing what to charge.
Two minutes for your number. One evening for your pricing. Free, from a contractor who learned it the hard way.
