She read an article in the Wall Street Journal about Cartridge World and decided to buy a franchise in 2004, and almost two decades later, she’s still going strong!

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.
