Course Description

Author and entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz details the cash management system that will ensure any business – of any size, in any industry, no matter how much debt it carries or how many years it has been operating—will become permanently profitable. Michalowicz explains how an age-old accounting formula turns great businesses into cash-eating monsters, trapping you in a day-to-day, check-to-check struggle to survive. He reveals how to flip that "Frankenstein Formula" and take profit first without compromising your business.

Learning Objectives

  • Why the traditional accounting formula of Sales – Expenses = Profit is not just counter intuitive to human behavior, but a myth that locks you into a never-ending cycle of selling more yet profiting less.

  • How the formula of Sales – Profit = Expenses actually forces innovation, supports sustained growth and increases profits.

  • The biggest challenges faced with this new way of thinking and how to combat them.

By his 35th birthday MIKE MICHALOWICZ(pronounced mi-‘kal-o-wits) had founded and sold two multi-million dollar companies. Confident that he had the formula to success, he became an angel investor… and proceeded to lose his entire fortune. Then he started all over again, driven to find better ways to grow healthy, strong companies. Among other innovative strategies, Mike created the “Profit First Formula”, a way for businesses to ensure profitability from their very next deposit forward. Mike is also the co-founder of Profit First Professionals an ensemble of elite accountants. Mike is now running his third million dollar venture.
