Dovea Client Profitability Tracker V2
Find out which clients support your business targets. This client profitability tracker for Excel and Google Sheets compares revenue, direct costs and actual working hours, with completed results kept separate from active projects.
What the tracker shows
- Completed revenue
- True profit after direct costs and internal labor cost
- Profit margin
- Effective hourly rate after direct costs
- Estimated versus actual hours
- Hours variance percentage
- Active-project progress
- Client-level profitability
- Pricing recommendations and issue flags
- Your largest client’s share of completed revenue
Understand the numbers that matter
Revenue alone does not show whether a project was worthwhile.
Effective hourly rate shows what the project produced per working hour after direct project costs.
True profit goes further by also subtracting the internal cost of your working time.
Together, these figures help you evaluate whether a project supported your pricing targets.
Completed and active projects are kept separate
Completed projects drive the final profitability metrics and recommendations.
Active projects remain visible as work in progress, but they do not receive premature final pricing decisions. This keeps unfinished work from distorting your completed-project results.
Clear client and project decisions
The tracker can highlight actions such as:
- Keep
- Review
- Raise price
- Reprice or stop
- Active only
It can also identify issues such as low hourly rate, hours overrun or missing actual project data.
