The Challenges SEO & Digital Growth Agencies in Birmingham Face
These accounting challenges are especially relevant in Birmingham:
Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) Tracking
Your retainer-based model means predictable revenue, but churn surprises you mid-month. Forecasting is impossible without clear MRR visibility.
Consultant Utilization Rates Unknown
You bill clients but don't know if your consultants are at 60% or 90% utilization. Pricing is loose, margins are unknown, and you're leaving money on the table.
Scaling Payroll Without Losing Profitability
Adding your first or fifth consultant is a big jump in fixed costs. You need to know: can I afford this hire? Will they pay for themselves?
