Margin = contract value − (points or hours delivered × cost per point/hour). It's the number most agencies never calculate per client — they only look at total revenue, which hides clients losing money, propped up by the ones that don't.
Frequently asked questions
What is client profitability?
It's the margin left over after subtracting the real cost of the team allocated to that client from the monthly contract value. Unlike total revenue, it shows whether each client individually is profitable or losing money.
How do I calculate cost per point or per hour for my team?
For salaried staff: take that person's total monthly cost and divide by billable hours, or by the points they typically deliver. For freelancers, use the rate you already agreed on per hour or per deliverable.
What margin is considered healthy for an agency?
There's no universal number, but most agencies aim for 40-60% margin per client after direct team cost. Below 20% is a warning sign; negative means the client is losing money.
