Real-World Use Cases

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Forgetting annual costs. Licensing renewal, professional memberships, and CEUs are real expenses. Divide annual totals by 12.

• Not including your own time cost. 10 hours/week of administrative tasks have an opportunity cost at your hourly rate.

• Underestimating billing costs. Outsourced billing at 8% on $10,000/month is $800/month—a meaningful line item.

• Ignoring the cost of unfilled slots. Each empty appointment slot costs the full session fee in lost revenue, not just overhead.
