The Small Business School Podcast

Understanding a 'Profit First' Perspective


Listen Later

In today's episode of Small Business School, we dive into ‘Profit First’, a method designed to transform the way you handle your business expenses. I am breaking down the core concepts from Mike Michalowicz's phenomenal book, emphasizing the importance of setting limits and strategically managing your finances. Let's get into it!

Topics Covered:

  • Profit First; the method of allocating funds to specific bank accounts, including employee pay, operating expenses, owner compensation, profits, and taxes.
  • Why some entrepreneurs struggle with Profit First and discover ways to overcome challenges.
  • The non-negotiable aspects of setting aside money for taxes and strategically using profit accounts.
  • The importance of having a strategic mindset, seeking mentorship, and gaining a comprehensive understanding of your business to maximize Profit First's effectiveness.

A Profit First financial plan can be the right financial pressure you need to experience  transformation in your small business!
