Most entrepreneurs run their business backwards — revenue first, expenses second, profit last. In this episode, I sit down with Mike Michalowicz, the guy who literally wrote the book on profit ("Profit First"), to flip that formula on its head. Mike shares how to take control of your cash, build a business that runs without you, and turn financial chaos into consistent profit. We dig into why chasing revenue kills margins, how to instantly boost cash flow by focusing on your best clients, and why underpricing keeps you stuck. If you’re tired of feeling broke in a business that’s “doing well,” this one’s for you.
