Fully Booked but STILL Broke?
$30,514.00 Found in 90 Days
$30,514.00 found in 90 days.
I've shown over 300 business owners how to add $30k to their bottom line in 90 days.
It rarely involves "more sales and marketing."
The "Boring 3"
Typically, it involves reviewing the "Boring 3":
- Profit & Loss Reconciliations
- Client Lifetime Value (LTV)
- Team Billable Capacity
Most owners assume they need more leads, more ads, and more reach.
In reality, they are losing money through gaps they have normalised.
Stop Looking at Instagram – Look at Your Data
If you want $30k, stop looking at Instagram and look at your data:
1. The Profit & Loss Test
Do I clearly understand what each category is for?
Have I checked they are actually reconciled correctly?
Which categories increased over the last 2 quarters?
The Kicker: Was there a measurable ROI on those increases?
2. The "Client Graveyard" Test
What is the average number of new enquiries/week?
How many of those actually became clients?
The Kicker: When did I last reach out to every client I have EVER serviced? (This is usually where the first $10k+ is hiding).
3. The Capacity Trap
How many team members do I have?
What is the MAXIMAL billable hour capacity they have?
What is the ACTUAL average billable hours they produce?
Where Are You Leaking?
These questions establish the operating parameters of your business.
This is where profit is either protected or destroyed.
Never start with "how do we make more?"
Always start with "Where are we leaking?"
Fixing leaks is a lot easier (and cheaper) than building a whole new building.
If you want me to show you exactly how much money you're losing in these 3 areas, send me a DM with the word 'AUDIT'.
