The Bottom Line by Evolved Finance

We have a big announcement for our listeners!

In this special episode of The Bottom Line by Evolved Finance, Parker discusses the future of the podcast and the exciting things we have planned for 2024.

As we move into the new year, we will be putting our podcast on pause in order to focus our time and resources on other areas of the business. Not only will we be officially launching our tax planning and preparation service in the spring, but we will also be launching a business book.

Launching Profit Pillars: A Proven System to Maximize the Bottom Line in Your Online Business is going to be a momentous project. Parker submitted the first draft in November and is already busy working on edits. With a book launch planned for the fall of 2024, we’ll be sharing sneak peeks, updates, and insider info on social media and to our email list throughout the coming year. We’re really excited to be able to share our knowledge with a larger audience and be able to help even more entrepreneurs make sense of their numbers so they can run more profitable businesses!

If you want to learn more about our strategy to pause the podcast, please listen to the latest episode to hear more about the decision and what we have planned for 2024.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our dedicated listeners! While this may be a temporary pause, it's far from a goodbye. In the meantime, we'd love to stay connected with you! Follow or connect with us through the links below:

This week, Parker chats with Melissa Dlugolecki about her financial journey.

Melissa Dlugolecki is a “regular person” who has created “irregular results”. As a bereaved mother, she worked through the overwhelming pain of her grief and now hosts a globally top-ranked podcast, Grief and Guts, which is designed to show people what is possible for them, no matter what their circumstances are.
