Profit

Profit shows what is left of your revenue after costs. Revenue and advertising costs come in automatically; you add your other costs yourself or import them from your bookkeeping.

The tab is available to agency users for webshops, course businesses and service businesses. All amounts exclude VAT.

1. General figures

• Revenue, Costs (fixed and variable), Profit and Margin.
• Cost structure: the share of fixed costs (independent of sales, such as hosting) versus variable costs (moving with revenue, such as purchasing and ads).
• A benchmark with a healthy net margin for your type of business.

Choose the year under Figures for.

2. Profit and costs

• Profit per month: revenue, costs, profit and margin per month. Click a month for the details.
• Where does your money go? Your costs per category.
• Savings tips: where money leaks away, for example recurring expenses worth reviewing.

1. Open Cost items.
2. Fill in the Name, Category and Amount.

Import your bookkeeping

3. Metri reads the cost lines and prepares them as monthly or one-off items. Check each line: tick what to include, and adjust the kind, category or business.

Advertising costs are not ticked on purpose: they already come in automatically from Google Ads.
