Most business owners are guessing when it comes to their numbers — and it’s costing them everything. In this episode of The Christian Business Podcast, Josiah Ryan breaks down the five core numbers every entrepreneur must know to run a profitable, sustainable business without burning out.

From revenue and profit margin to customer acquisition costs, cost per lead, and close rate, Josiah explains how to track these numbers in simple, actionable ways. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “flying blind” in business, this episode gives you the clarity to build a machine that works — instead of one that drains you.

👉 What you’ll learn:

• The difference between revenue and profit (and why it matters more than you think)
• How to calculate your customer acquisition cost and why it’s a “cheat code”
• The role of cost per lead and close rate in scaling confidently
• Why knowing your numbers is the key to freedom, growth, and peace of mind

This episode is especially for Christian entrepreneurs who want to steward their business well, build with clarity, and stop relying on luck or guesswork.
