Profit First

Transform Your Business from a Cash-Eating Monster to a Money-Making Machine

By Mike Michalowicz

Amy’s Key 3

You are no longer asking “How can I make my business bigger?” You are asking, “How can I make my business better?”
For some people having an accountability partner who knows the ins and outs of their industry who can guide them step by step is a better approach.
The bottom line is this: Don’t cut your salary to make the numbers work. The goal of every business is health, and that is achieved through efficiency.

Bonus takeaway: When less money is available to run your business, you will find ways to get the same or better results with less. By taking your profit first, you will be forced to think smarter and innovate more.
