The Leaky Bucket
Most service businesses are leaking profit — through costs they've stopped questioning, margins they've never properly tested, clients they've quietly lost, and revenue they've never asked for.
The Leaky Bucket is the show where we open a real business file and find out exactly where the money is going.
Each episode, Ian Morgan — Group CEO of MBS Accountants — works live through the finances of a real service business scenario. One company. Four sessions.
Costs, margins, churn, average order value. Every leak identified. Running total revealed.
No theory. No frameworks. Just numbers — and what they tell you when someone actually looks.
If you're running a service business turning over £500k to £10m and your accountant has never shown you this, this show is for you.
The numbers always reveal the leak.
