The Profitability Coach
When a business owner imagines the business of their dreams, they want to do everything they can to make it happen. In order to do that, they need to understand the operational side of the business, knowing where the money flows and the potential pitfalls that surface when you want to be all things to all people. It shouldn’t be so hard to have a business that bring in more money than it spends.
The Profitability Coach simplifies complex financial concepts and break them down into easy to understand knowledge.
