Brian Thompson returns for a solo episode packed with practical advice to help entrepreneurs take charge of their numbers. In this mini masterclass, you'll learn how to use your profit and loss, balance sheet, and reconciliation reports more effectively. Whether you love or loathe spreadsheets, this episode gives you the tools to pause, reflect, and make strategic financial decisions to set yourself up for success in the second half of the year. How To Conduct A Mid-Year Financial Review 1. Reconcile and clean up your books First, set aside at least 90 minutes to focus without distractions. Before analyzing anything, make sure your books are clean: Start with reconciliation: Check that your accounting software matches your actual bank transactions and credit card balances. Review your categories: Go through your chart of accounts to ensure expenses are correctly categorized. Review your balance sheet: Ensure your cash balances, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other liabilities align with what you expect. If not, dig deeper to understand why. 2. Analyze your profit and loss statement Run a profit and loss (P&L) report for the period from January through June and analyze the data: Analyze your revenue: Compare your actual revenue to your goals and prior years. If you offer multiple types of service, break down which ones are driving your revenue and which ones may be underperforming. Analyze your expenses: Look for surprises, categories that you are over budget in, and for subscriptions or tools you no longer use. Calculate your gross and net profit: Ensure you are maintaining healthy margins, and if margins are shrinking, find out why. Look for trends: When looking at the big picture, make sure all the pieces fit together. For instance, if you're spending more on marketing as an expense, you'd expect to have a corresponding higher revenue. 3. Examine your cash flow Cash flow is not just about what you earn -- it's also about what you keep. Use the following steps to make sure cash is flowing into and out of your business strategically: Check your bucket allocations: If you use the bucket system, ensure you are still transferring funds consistently to your various business accounts and that your percentages are still realistic based on current revenue. Review your operating cash flow: Ensure cash is coming in faster than it's going out and that you aren't relying too heavily on credit to cover gaps. Check your accounts receivable: This step is one of the easiest ways to increase your cash flow quickly by following up on outstanding invoices and consistently enforcing your payment terms. Evaluate large expenses: Consider whether you should delay or accelerate spending based on your cash position. 4. Use your mid-year review to propel your business forward Once you understand your numbers in detail, it's time to turn your insights into action: Set or reset financial goals: Use your findings to update your targets for the second half of the year. Make sure your goals are specific, measurable, and tied to your broader vision. Identify quick wins: Look for easy adjustments that make a big difference. Small changes now can have a significant impact on your year-end results. Improve your systems: Make a plan to fix systems that aren't working. Good systems reduce mental load and improve accuracy. Communicate with stakeholders: Share your findings with your team, financial advisor, or coach. Reflect and celebrate: Take a moment to reflect on what is working, and celebrate the fact that you're engaging in this process.

In this episode, I sit down with Caleb Pepperday, CFP®, ChFC®, fee-only fiduciary financial planner and founder of Advanced Practice Planning, to discuss financial planning for physician associates and other healthcare professionals. Caleb shares what drew him to work with PAs and other APPs, and how his dual designations as a Certified Financial Planner and Chartered Financial Consultant give him a unique perspective when guiding clients toward financial independence. He also breaks down the confusing landscape of financial credentials and explains why not all financial advisors are created equal. Caleb helps demystify what PAs should look for in a trustworthy planner. He explains what it really means to be a fiduciary, the red flags to watch for in the industry, and the key questions to ask when interviewing a potential advisor. Caleb also walks us through the different ways financial professionals get paid (commission-based, assets under management / AUM, and flat-fee models) and highlights the pros and cons of each. For those wondering when it makes sense to manage your own money versus bringing in professional help, Caleb provides a balanced perspective tailored to busy healthcare professionals who want to build wealth without burning themselves out along the way. Finally, we dive into a case study featuring a mid-career PA and NP couple with a strong income and growing portfolio, but with gaps in areas like tax diversification, estate planning, college funding, and insurance. Caleb outlines practical next steps to help them stay on track toward their goal of retiring at 55 while protecting their family along the way.

Stocks rose as investors breathed a sigh of relief that a tamer-than-expected inflation report might give the Federal Reserve the green light to cut interest rates next month, The consumer price index rose 2.7 percent on an annualized basis in July, More on Pints and Portfolios with Rob Black and a Certified Financial Planner from EP Wealth Advisors on Saturday September 6th from 12 noon to 2pm in Pleasant Hill

Nick Hopwood, Certified Financial Planner and Founder of Peak Wealth, shares key insights on the current financial landscape, highlighting that the market now predicts an 80% chance of a Federal Reserve rate cut next month, even as upcoming inflation data is expected to settle around 2.7%. He notes that 15% of Nvidia and AMD chip sales in China will now be redirected to the U.S. Treasury, while stock buybacks are on track to hit an all-time high this year. Despite August typically bringing negative surprises, this year shows extreme complacency with the VIX volatility index below 16, indicating low market volatility. Hopwood also critiques the Bureau of Labor Statistics for inaccuracies, pointing out that last month's jobs numbers were significantly overstated by 258,000.   For a free Roth conversion analysis, visit www.PeakWM.com/Gruber 

Brian Thompson chats with Amy Cosper, former Editor-in-Chief of Entrepreneur Magazine, award-winning journalist, and author of the new book, “The Ultimate Guide to Startup Success.” In this episode, Amy brings fierce honesty, contagious energy, and deep wisdom about what it really takes to build a mission-driven business in uncertain times. You'll also hear some of the biggest legal and financial mistakes founders make and be reminded why entrepreneurship can be a radical act of hope and defiance. Episode Highlights Mission-driven businesses don't have to be altruistic. Amy describes a mission-driven business as one fueled by a higher purpose, but she's careful to clarify that purpose doesn't have to be altruistic. “Having a mission-driven or purpose-driven company is what you stand for,” she said. “It doesn't have to be altruistic, but it is what you believe in.” The mission should be the company's soul that emanates out to the branding, business plan, and revenue streams. As a consultant to startup founders, Amy routinely sees that entrepreneurs struggle with finding clarity. “If you don't have clarity in what your company does, it's going to be really hard to find your purpose,” she said. Avoid common legal and accounting mistakes. Because entrepreneurs are visionary, they often overlook important, practical needs. Amy shared four, common mistakes she hopes future founders will avoid: Not maintaining accurate books from the start: While you may not want to think about the numbers, it's important to do accurate accounting as a business owner. Not getting an IRS Employer Identification Number (EIN): Your EIN is like a Social Security number for your business and should be tied to your entity. Giving your business short-sighted name: Naming your business after a fleeting trend or something specific to a geographic region becomes problematic when you want to grow. Not understanding how to structure partnership and operating agreements: If you don't plan for how a business will get split up or choose an appropriate business structure, you're setting yourself up for headaches when it's time to pivot. “My hope for the book is that entrepreneurs and founders don't make the same mistakes that I made,” Amy said. ”When you're creating something new, or you're disrupting a known way of thinking, you're not thinking about how to structure an operating agreement or whether it's better as an LLC or S Corp. My advice is to take a pause and do a little bit of research.” Just start. Amy knows people who have been about to launch their business for 20 years. While it's scary to take the first step, she encouraged want-to-be entrepreneurs to just start. “You get to make your own destiny,” she said. “You're in charge.” Resources + Links “The Ultimate Guide to Startup Success” Amy Cosper: LinkedIn Brian Thompson Financial: Website, Newsletter, Podcast Follow Brian Thompson Online: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Forbes About Brian and the Mission Driven Business Podcast Brian Thompson, JD/CFP, is a tax attorney and Certified Financial Planner® who specializes in providing comprehensive financial planning to LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs who run mission-driven businesses.
