What this means

Break-even is the volume at which you stop bleeding. Below it, every additional sale just reduces your loss; above it, contribution flows straight to profit. The sensitivity to fixed costs and contribution margin is brutal — small changes shift the line a lot.

Cost & price structure

Break-even tells you the volume your business must do every month before profit even starts.

Rent, salaries, software, insurance — costs that don't change with volume.

Materials, packaging, per-order shipping — costs that scale with each unit.
