Margin vs Markup
Margin and markup are different.
As a recruiter, if your buying price is 400, and your selling price is 500, that’s a difference of 100.
100 is a 20% margin, and a 25% markup.
100 is 20% of the selling price, and 25% of the buying price.
Clients and candidates are interested in your margin.
Which has the added advantage of being the lower figure.
