Joining me on the podcast today are Michelle and Alex Gage of Michelle Gage Interiors and Business Measurements. We are focusing our attention on the need for business financial measurements that allow a business to know where it is and use the data to make decisions on where it is going.  

If you have been listening to my podcast for any time, you know how much I focus on profitability – hence the name of the podcast, as well as, the importance of not only knowing your numbers but knowing what they are telling you. The story of your numbers if you will. What Michelle and Alex have created is a dashboard that will help you know your numbers at a glance whenever you want. And knowledge is empowering. 

No matter where you are with your financials, listen in today. And don’t forget to go to my website and check out the Understanding Your Financials course and Master Your Profit course to really understand what all the numbers are telling you.
