Adam Lean | Business Financials Simplified

Show Notes

Small business owners have a lot on their plate: marketing, product development, sales, hiring, expenses… that’s a recipe for overwhelm, says Adam Lean. And, all too often, what takes a backseat are the financials– the numbers that gauge the true health of your business.

Are you living with the attitude of “if I make more money, my finances will take care of themselves,” or “besides, that’s why I have an accountant/bookkeeper, anyways…”?

 

That’s the entirely wrong attitude to have. Adam says if you don’t monitor the right numbers, you’ll make bad decisions and potentially endanger your business. And, that’s something that someone who does your taxes can’t help you with.

 

Adam shares the three metrics you should focus on first, as well as…

 

• When – and why – more sales doesn’t equal more profits
• How to tell if you’re just “buying yourself a job” or truly running a business 
• Creating the customized financial “scoreboard” you need to make decisions 
• Overcoming the #1 thing all business owners struggle with
• And more

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.”
― Calvin Coolidge, 30th President of the United States
