Same thoughts as @BCG1. I have never heard anyone at my firm even mention utilization. As long as you're working hard and doing the best you can for your teams you shouldn't have to worry about hitting targets.

Listen, 80% of my clients have already closed this half with over £600,000 in the green with an average deposit of £125,000 and a minimum of £250!

That's a better margin than most small business owners make in a year.
