  • 175: Profit First for Minority, Service-Based Businesses with Susanne Mariga

    Do the financials of your business stress you out? Do you feel overwhelmed and lack confidence when it comes to these types of activities?

    One of the disciplines people are most curious about is financials. It is a critical piece to becoming a holistic operator inside of a business, but also one of the areas that operators tend to shy away from. But having a CPA is not required to become savvy in financials and use that skill in an executive operational capacity. As an operator you will want to partner with people who have skills and credentials such as a CPA, tax accountant, or bookkeeper. Those people are your secret weapons!

    Today, we have Susanne Mariga who is going to talk about "Profit First."
