Mark-Up Verses Margin

Mark-Up Verses Margin

Mark-Up Verses Margin

The difference between Mark-Up Verses Margin is frequently misunderstood. It can have serious consequences on your business.  For example:

You buy a good or service for £100 and put 50% mark up on it = £150.00.

You then want to offer a discount and think that if you offer 40% off you will still make a small profit.  WRONG!

40% off £150.00 = £90.00 which means you have made a £10 loss!

This is because the profit margin is 33% (not 50% as that is the mark up)

Waller Associates

In 1993 Steve Waller started Waller Building Services after training as a quantity surveyor. Over the next few years the company grew and it was in July, 2000, when the decision was made for Waller Building Services to become a Limited company.  Therefore Waller Associates Limited was set up and Waller Building Services became a trading division within that company. In 2010, an opportunity arose that dove tailed well with the existing company structure.  A long established local Glazing company went into administration which produced the need for a commercial and domestic glazing supplier in the area.  Their commercial glazing manger, Paul Hayward, liked the way we operated as a company and therefore a new division was formed.
