What is Profit Genie

Profit Genie is your built-in financial co-pilot, a powerful budgeting engine inside Elevation Advisor that helps you price with precision, protect your profit, and run your business with confidence.

It’s not just a calculator. It’s the strategy behind every proposal you send.


Why It Exists

Before Profit Genie, most contractors priced jobs by marking up materials and hoping the math worked out. But what happens when a client supplies their own materials? Or when your projections are off?

Your profit disappears.

Profit Genie was built to solve that problem. It flips the script by asking one simple question:


"How much money do you want in your account at the end of the year?"


Then it reverse-engineers your pricing to get you there.


How It Works

Profit Genie uses your real business data to calculate exactly what you need to charge:

  • Per day
  • Per crew
  • Per hour


It’s built on three inputs you control:

  • Labor costs
  • Overhead expenses
  • Year-end profit goal


No spreadsheets. No guesswork. Just clarity.


Why It’s Different

Traditional pricing models rely on material markups and industry averages. Profit Genie doesn’t.


Traditional Model

Profit Genie PMM

Relies on material projections for the coming year

Ignores materials entirely

Prone to inconsistency

Delivers predictable daily pricing

Based on assumptions

Based on your actual numbers


By focusing only on labor, overhead, and profit, Profit Genie gives you consistent, scalable pricing across every job, even when clients supply their own materials.


Why It Matters

Profit Genie helps you:

  • Stay profitable in every season
  • Compete confidently in tight bids
  • Plan for growth without financial surprises
  • Sleep better knowing your numbers are solid


💡 It’s not just a calculator, it’s a strategy engine.



Built on the PMM Model

Profit Genie powers Elevation Advisor’s PMM (Production Minus Materials) model, a smarter way to price work.

  • Removes material variability from your pricing
  • Focuses on labor-driven profitability
  • Keeps your business lean, efficient, and scalable


Real-World Impact

Small adjustments in Profit Genie can lead to massive results.

Trim one hour of unbillable labor per day? You could save $120,000+ per year, without raising prices or adding clients.

Add a crew member? Profit Genie shows you how it affects your hourly rate, your schedule, and your bottom line, instantly.


Discipline Meets Confidence

Profit Genie gives you the numbers. But it’s up to you to stick to them.

  • Track your time
  • Follow your pricing
  • Stay disciplined


When you do, every proposal becomes a confident step toward your financial goals.
