Running a small business is more than just a job; it’s a passion, a dream, and a legacy in the making for many. You’ve poured your heart and soul into your work, striving to create something impactful for your family, community, financial future, and the world. Yet, the financial side of your business can often feel like a daunting mystery, leaving you overwhelmed and uncertain about the future. That’s why we are thrilled to introduce the REVEAL Your Path to Profit Course, a transformative journey designed to empower you with financial clarity and confidence.
What is the REVEAL Your Path to Profit Course?
The REVEAL Your Path to Profit Course is a comprehensive, step-by-step program tailored for passionate small business owners who are ready to take control of their financial future. This six-week course is designed to help you move from confusion to clarity, helping you understand and manage your business’s most crucial financial aspects.
Course Overview:
- Reconcile All Balance Sheet Accounts and Benchmark Your Business: We can’t figure out where your business is going without first understanding where it is right now. We start this course by reviewing the financial foundation, ensuring all of your balance sheet accounts are reconciled, and benchmarking your business against others of a similar size. This phase also sets the stage for the money mindset component of our course, recognizing how it influences your financial decisions.
- Evaluate Revenue Streams: Next, we examine your revenue streams to understand how you make money in your business. Your P&L should have more than one “sales” line. What products/services do you offer, how do you create/provide them, and what are your profit margins? We also examine the technical and mindset components of pricing and profit margins so we can establish revenue expectations that help you maximize profitability.
- Validate Expenses: In this phase, we review your business’s operating expenses. We shift our money mindset from “have-to” to “get-to” and categorize each expense as a required cost, personal perk, or investment. We help you optimize the money spent daily, weekly, and monthly by scrutinizing the return on investment and questioning the actual business requirements.
- Establish and Maintain a Budget: It’s time to put all that work into understanding where your business stands (status, revenue, and expenses) and creating the future you want for your business. We show you how to build a customized budget, forecasting revenue and expenses by account, customer/vendor, and month for the rest of the year. If you like where it gets you, we analyze variances. If you don’t, we revisit the revenue and expense expectations to determine what we can change in the business and/or budget to get different results.
- Analyze Variances: This phase is where the magic starts to happen. We show you how to compare your expectations with your budget to the actual results in your Profit and Loss (P&L) so that you understand the story your numbers tell you. This phase lets you make the best business decisions based on current events. You can change the story and future of your business by adjusting the budget and/or changing your business.
- Leverage Cash Flow: Don’t worry; this is not about cash flow statements. We show you how to create a cash flow forecast that looks just like your budget and reflects how you think about cash…sales, payroll, credit card, loans, savings, distributions, etc. Notice how that list includes loans, savings, and distributions? This is because your budget doesn’t factor in debt payments, savings contributions, and profit distributions, but your bank account sure does. This cash flow forecast provides a holistic view of your cash flow based on budget and expectations.
