I may have to get this one framed.

I took this shot with my Samsung Galaxy from the rooftop of the Four Seasons Bygone restaurant in Baltimore.

I was recently inspired by Alex Hormozi to give away my best stuff. So here it goes...🎁

💰 You've likely seen me post about helping business owners find hidden cash in their business. I developed these unique skills after 30 years in corporate banking where I've reviewed tens of thousands of financial statements across hundreds of industries.

😀 My clients pay me to leverage these skills to help them grow and be more profitable. Now I am going to share these resources live, in a free workshop.

💪 During this event, I'm going to help you become more confident with your numbers and show you where money tends to hide out in your business.

✅ My goal is to help you uncover an additional $25K in the next 30 days.

Registration is required as spots are limited by Zoom (100 attendees max).

Financial is critical because it helps you ask the right questions and assess .

Mike has a good "gut feeling" about this opportunity and he is using data to set himself up for success if/when he pulls the trigger.

Be like Mike.

Lack of is the , not the .

Most are guilty of this misdiagnosis.

Attack (treat) the problem, not the symptom!

There are many paths to solving the true problem, but since this is a business, I use .

A financial statement in my hands, is like an X-ray and blood work for a physician. They use your health data to diagnose the problem (prescription comes later).

For example, after I perform a thorough financial diagnosis, the business owner can then begin to attack the core problem.

I’m an expert at asking the right questions.

Core problems may include:

* Gross Profit Margins are off due to over compensating sales staff.

* Misalignment with pricing (contact Susan Trivers - Pricing Strategist).

* Marketing/Messaging.

* Lack of attention to your numbers (I can help fix that).

* Sales Training (improving techniques, confidence, accountability, routines, etc).

* Poor and .

The list goes on, but you get my point.

If your business is having problems, call a doctor. I’ll even give you his contact information 443.539.6276 [email protected].

Here is why you get better results with "Done With You" services versus or "Done For You."

Reason #1: You learn to conquer the very skill you desire by working alongside the master.

Example: My curious grandson is fascinated with the camping experience. We did it .

I showed him many things, but nothing is more important than learning to dump the black water tanks 😀

Proof: A picture is worth a 1,000 words.

If you are looking to become a better manager of your business, I can show you how.

p.s. This photo is not a metaphor for your .

firework kit from Costco for some pre-July 4th celebrations last night.

Got me thinking about all the DIY attempts like me make every day.

When DIY no longer serves you (i.e., you don't achieve the desired results), it's time for a different approach.

That's when you hire an expert who has been there before and can guide you.

It's called "Done With You" (DWY).

For me, I've invested in programs and marketing assistance.

My clients hire me to help them grow, create consistent , and take a decent paycheck.

is the language of business. When you learn to master this language, increase!

Let's create some together for your business 😀

Pardon the interruption, but do you eat bugs?

The Bay is famous for its crabs. To an outsider, it looks like you are eating sea bugs...and in reality, you are!

However, this is a summer tradition in Maryland.

The next time you travel internationally and turn your nose up at the local cuisine, remember that in the U.S. we eat hot dogs and bugs.

We should not be judging anyone!

Speaking of judgment, a lot of tend to hold their finances close to the vest, and I understand why. If your business is struggling (or not as as you'd like), you need a financial advisor who has seen it all and won't judge.

Let's talk .

Are you ready to finally fix a problem that's been holding you back?

I eat sea bugs. Who am I to ?

But I can help solve your financial challenges.

p.s. Can you name this iconic location?

Judy, life is better “Done With You!”

This is a great metaphor in too.

When your business needs Professional help, you really have three choices: DIY; Done For You; and Done With You (DWY).

They all have their place but I’ve found one method is far superior.

My clients achieve the best long-term results with my DWY financial coaching services.

During my 90-day Profit Finder Program we work side-by-side to build out their forecast. They learn how to their company by better understanding how to use their financial statements to create consistent .

This results in more working capital and improved .

Life is just better done with you!

I never planned on being a guy, but spent the last 10 months helping dozens of build, launch, and monitor this key financial report.

How did this occur?

It just so happens that most small bussinesses don't build or operate their company using a budget forecast.

Easy for me...hard for them.

Instead of building a product/service and hoping they will come, it's much better to get feedback from the market and build what they need, leveraging your specific area of expertise.

This is how The Budget Builder Workshop was born. This powerful tool helps you grow your business. It's a DWY project (Done With You).

What problems are your clients trying to solve?

Go and build it!

Take your top off!

Summer marks the time of year I transform my Jeep to welcome in the warm weather.

It's a mid-year ritual.

As we end the first 6 months of 2023, this is also good time to take a deep financial assesment of your business.

Take the top off...get a fresh set of eyes looking at your results, and make necessary adjustments to ensure for 2023.

I have a financial tool to help you do this.

You'll love the way look after a financial refresh.

Drop me a private message if you're ready to chat.

Do you notice a pattern here?

It doesn't take a genius to see that what goes up, must come down. In this context, the "down" is economic pain.

Who hasn't gotten my PDF on how to run your biz by your Financial Reports (Balance Sheet, P&L, how to build a Budget)?

It's been a minute since I introduced myself here.

I'm a guy.

I help owners who want to create consistent cash flow so they can take a decent paycheck. I do this by helping them learn how to run their business by their financial reports (and not just their gut).

My clients are getting some amazing results by "knowing their numbers" without having to become a CFO or an Accountant.

It's almost as if my 30yrs in Corporate uniquely prepared me to help business owners learn to leverage the financial tools that improve cash flow, working capital, and .

I'm focused on only one thing: Seeing my clients succeed 💪

Oftentimes business owners feel like they have a , not a business.

If that's you, and you want to change, we should talk. I can help you.

People tell me I'm friendly, so if you are too, we'd probably be a good fit 😀

What seeds of advantage have produced fruit in your life in spite of adversity?

In the last 3 years alone I have experienced job loss, death of a spouse, and hurtful judgment from some closest to me.

I'm still standing...and moving forward

I'm still working...with a passion to serve my clients

I'm remarried...to a woman I love

Being humbled taught me humility
Being judged taught me to suspend judgment of others
Being weak taught me true strength

New Years Resolution - Getting Financially Fit for your 💪

I want to help 10 business owners take control of their finances between now and Jan 31st of 2023 🙋

FINANCIAL HEALTH is similar to physical health. takes commitment, knowledge, and help from a pro. If you've tried before without getting the desired results, please keep reading.

Here are two ways I can help....
__________

1. PROFIT PROFILE REPORT - $1K

I review 3yrs of your financial statements and provide you with a detailed report on the current health of your company including; Working Capital, Cash Flow, Balance Sheet, and P&L. Includes two 1:1 calls with me to help diagnose and prescribe a tailored game plan for you in 2023.
__________

2. BUDGET BUILDER/PROFIT PLAN - $5K

You'll be part of a cohort with other business owners in my 90-day virtual program. This includes #1 above, plus 5 weekly group calls, and 1:1 sessions with me each month. Full access to all my resources to help you build, launch, and monitor your 2023 Profit Plan (aka, Budget).
__________

THE PROCESS?

We first have to see if we are a good fit. I want to work with motivated business owners doing at least $500K in annual revenue.

DM me to take the next step.

p.s. This is the first time I've listed my prices publicly. I want to be transparent about your investment and expected results.

Here's a quick way to improve

✅ Calculate your A/R turnover ratio. Develop a tactic to collect A/R quicker. Shaving off just a few days can result in significant increases in working capital.

I've listed one tactic below⏬

✅ Price Engineering. Quit offering discounts for clients to pay in 10 days. This erodes your margins at a time when costs are increasing across the board. 𝗜𝗡𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗗, consider raising the price of your signature product/service by 10%. This is the NEW price for normal terms (30 days). BUT, offer the old price if paid upfront.

If you are going to finance clients like a bank, get paid like a bank!

I have a cool worksheet that calculates these formulas for you, directly from your financial statements.

Drop a note in the comments or send me a DM, and I'll be happy to send the PDF over to you.

Friday is for the employed, but for the you can get paid everyday.
