Reason #16: Get Lean in Your Expenses

Reason #16: Get Lean in Your Expenses

Your Diet Starts Monday…. your cash flow diet, that is! I know — DIET is a 4-letter word. So let’s talk about intentions first.

All I wanted was someone to look at spreadsheets with me….

Before I found Profit First, I was a bit aimless in what I *should* be looking for and tracking in our practice.

It led to several awkward moments with staff and my husband (who technically owned our practice).

We were working. A lot. We were generating. We were paying our bills…and there was constantly something new.

Equipment
Software upgrade
Security measures
Training and education
Subscriptions
Taxxxxes
Coaching

…yeah. Hamster wheel, if you will.

Once I did the Instant Assessment I was SHOCKED to see how much of the pie was actually “ours.”

Things got REAL. We started to lean down and figure out what was actually essential to our business function.

Getting clear on the Numbers was the first step. I had awesome mentors and accountability partners to help me implant Profit First and make it work for us.

Four years later….I’m more than thrilled to be THAT person to look at spreadsheets with my clients. Run an expense audit. Help you find more profits.

Yesterday a new client admitted to having a meticulous spreadsheet…but it didn’t tie to what we were seeing on financial reports.

Next week I have a long-time client who is growing and needs another eye on the Numbers. Objective view.

Are you ready to strategize?
