Big month. So where'd the money go?
The $32,000 check hit and you felt rich for about a week.
Now it's the 14th. There's $4,200 in checking and you can't really explain where the rest went. The boss is asking about taxes again. Slow season is coming. Everybody at the office thinks you're killing it.
Nobody in this business talks about that part. Plenty of guys making $150K a year are lying awake at 1 AM running numbers in their head.
Save 10% of what? August paid $48K and February paid $3K. Every budget you've tried was built for someone who gets the same check every other Friday. You get paid when the deal funds.
What's missing is a system built for how you actually get paid. I couldn't find one, so I built it.
F.E.A.S.T. A paycheck system for commission income.
Five parts running on a five-account setup. It's how I paid off a $175,000 mortgage in 16 months while I was still selling roofs.
Forecasting
Your close rate and average ticket already tell you what next month pays. Stop guessing.
Expense Tracking
See where every dollar goes before it walks out the door.
Allocation
Every check gets split by percentage the day it lands. A $4K month and a $40K month run the same way.
Selective Budgeting
You pick what matters and fund it first. The truck can stay if it fits the plan.
Time Optimization
About 20 minutes a week keeps it running through storm season and slow season.
I ran 1,704 roofing appointments before I ever taught this.
I'm Mike Torres. Marine Corps. Master's in Finance. Former fiduciary financial advisor. Then I got into roofing sales and rode the same rollercoaster you're on.
I took my close rate from 14% to 40% and did $2.87 million in revenue in 2024. The checks got bigger and so did the chaos. F.E.A.S.T. is what got it under control.
"I made $100K and couldn't account for $50K of it. We funneled money to separate accounts and I took my family to England twice this year instead of once. My wife is happy."Chris, roofing sales rep
