The hardest part of financial growth (that no one talks about): It takes time. If you’re just starting, it’s going to be at least a few years to see substantial growth. Sure, there are rare exceptions. But most of them didn’t start from the bottom. They come with: - past venture success - deep pockets - a team behind them Those 3 things will beat you every time if you’re starting with: - little experience - by yourself - bootstrapped for cash If you can live with that… Then, rest easy. And get to work (or message me).

Do your business finances align with your core values? For many entrepreneurs their business is an extension of themselves. Their values include: - hard work and an enterprising spirit - serving the customer - excellence at every level These values are used to achieve life goals like: - financial stability - putting food on the table - freedom to spend time how they wish The question we always ask our clients is: "Does your business's finances align with your value?" Your finances should align to your values not the other way around.

Losses loom larger than gain. Want to know how this works? What do you feel more deeply? Making $1,000 or losing a $1,000? Losing is no doubt. This affect, called prospect theory, is key when working with our business finances. We need to realize that most of us are loss avoidant, which means we: - should position our products based on a 90% success rate, not a 10% failure rate. - realize taking financial risks will hurt more, if we lose. - only take bets we can sleep with at night.

The anxiety of clarity, is better than the anxiety of uncertainty. How so? Often when working with a business finances for the first time, the level of clarity we provide produces anxiety when they realized: - we spend more than we make - we make less than we thought - we have less cash than we'd like This anxiety often leads them to want to stop getting clear on their financial picture. But really they are just trading the anxiety of clarity for the anxiety of uncertainty. - uncertain how much money is being made - uncertain how or how much to invest into the business - uncertain if they will be able to even file taxes If you have the choice, always pick the anxiety of clarity over the anxiety of uncertainty.

Think long, act long. Business finances are no different. Many business owners are short sighted about their financial results. They tend to: - accept any client that comes their way - over invest in non-revenue generating activities - set up systems that are challenging to scale Businesses that have the long view in mind with their finances tend to: - accept ideal clients at the price their service is worth - invest money in activities that generate revenue, even if its slow - create products and services that can scale either in time or price PS interested in seeing if your business is set up with short sighted financial thinking?

Almost all of the time I do a financial review, their expenses need work. I want to make it easy for you. Here are 3 key places to optimize your finances: 1. People costs: Does your business model need to buy or borrow people's time? Employees that could be contractors, or contractors that should be employees are the first place to look. 2. Software: A systematic review of the software usage, value, and cost is a must for digital entrepreneurs. 3. Payment Processors: Want a 3% boost in profit? Stop using third-party payment processors. While not possible for most, if your business work with only a handful of large ticket clients that are flexible on payment type, consider using ACH instead of payment processors.
