Are You Working Harder Than Ever but Still Not Earning What You Deserve?

If any of these sound familiar, you’re not alone. Most plumbing and heating businesses struggle with pricing — not because they lack skill, but because nobody ever taught them how to quote properly.

The Quote Handbook changes that. Written by Aaron McLeish, specialist accountant and founder of Together We Count, this book draws on years of experience helping hundreds of trade businesses fix their pricing, protect their margins, and grow their turnover.

This isn’t theory — it’s a proven, step-by-step system built from real-world experience with plumbing and heating businesses just like yours.
