    Marriage. Business. Money. 

    Mixing all three isn’t always easy—but it can be powerful.

    • Build a business and a life 
      • Set shared financial goals without resentment 
        • Navigate income differences and roles without ego 
          • And stay aligned through the hard seasons 
          • If you’re a high-earning entrepreneur who wants a thriving business and a thriving relationship—this one’s for you.

This is The Fit Financial Podcast!

                                                                                                                                                              • While having cash reserves is vital for stability, too much idle cash can signal inefficiency and missed opportunities. A balanced cash management strategy can help to ensure that your business remains competitive and growth-oriented while optimizing tax efficiency. By actively managing your cash reserves, you can capitalize on investment opportunities, reward owners, and maintain a healthy financial position.

                                                                                                                                                                Welcome back to The Fit Financial Podcast!

                                                                                                                                                                Today, I have Chief Investment Officer Brandon VanLandingham, CFA, CMT, CFP here to help me dive into a topic that’s making waves in the economy—tariffs. What are they, how do they impact your wallet, and what should you be doing to prepare? You’ve probably heard about tariffs in the news, but most of the time, they’re talked about in political or economic terms that don’t really explain how they affect your everyday life.

                                                                                                                                                                We’re breaking it all down in a way that makes sense—real talk on what’s happening, what it means for you, and how you can make more informed financial decisions moving forward. We’re looking at both the positives and the potential concerns—because no matter what’s happening in the economy, there are always ways to be prepared. So, grab your coffee, settle in, and let’s talk about how tariffs could be hitting your wallet!

                                                                                                                                                                In this episode, Brandon VanLandingham breaks down the implications of the newly implemented U.S. blanket tariffs—25% on Canada and Mexico, and 20% on China. Designed to shrink the $2 trillion U.S. trade deficit, these tariffs could create short-term economic pain but are intended to deliver long-term economic sustainability. 

                                                                                                                                                                Blanket tariffs have been introduced as a strategic move to rebalance trade agreements. Canada and Mexico received a short-term postponement until April 2nd, largely due to their economic dependence on U.S. exports.

                                                                                                                                                                While the short-term outlook is rocky, the goal is to reduce the deficit without raising taxes. The Fed may step in to lower interest rates to combat potential deflation. The structure of the global economy today makes this a high-stakes play.

                                                                                                                                                                What about Consumer Spending? Expect essential goods like avocados and tomatoes to rise in price. Luxury goods may absorb the cost to maintain demand. Services and broader consumer prices will shift more gradually.

                                                                                                                                                                Supply Chain Shifts, Companies may scramble to diversify suppliers, sourcing from a broader range of countries. Domestic production could increase, but raw materials pose a sourcing challenge. Global Ripple Effect: If the tariffs stick, Canada and Mexico could face recessions. The U.S. is banking on its position as a reserve currency holder and dominant trade partner.

                                                                                                                                                                Investors may want to prioritize high free cash flow businesses. Be mindful of currency fluctuations and prepare for slower global growth.

                                                                                                                                                                Check out The Book- The Economic Weapon, by Nicholas Mulder

                                                                                                                                                                Understanding your costs, you can’t figure out where to go, if you don’t know where you are...meaning you can aim for what other similar online business owners are doing, but we assume you are unique in what you offer and who you offer it to, so let’s start with the cost of doing business: 

                                                                                                                                                                • Fixed Costs: These are expenses that do not change with the level of production or marketing, rent, salaries, and insurance. 
                                                                                                                                                                  • Variable Costs: These costs vary directly with the level of production or sales, such as merchants, fulfillment of services, and raw materials  
                                                                                                                                                                    • Break-even Point: The break-even point is where total revenue equals total costs, resulting in neither profit nor loss. Understanding this point helps in setting a baseline for your pricing strategy. 
                                                                                                                                                                    • Using your financial statements to help you decide, vs. A whiteboard
