As the year wraps up, it's time to slow down, look back, and get real about your business. I challenge you to answer three simple but powerful questions: What was your biggest win this year? What's the one thing you wish you had fixed or worked on? Most importantly, how well do you actually know your business numbers from the past year? These questions set the tone for the new year and help you make smarter, more profitable decisions. If you want next year to be your best year yet, it starts with clarity, honesty, and a deeper look into your numbers. Let's get you ready to win!  -----------------------------   DIVE IN DEEPER & LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR NUMBERS

The fastest way to figure out what people want is by asking the right clients the right questions.Today, Mike Warkentin sits down with gym owner Toni Roy of Breathe CrossFit to break down how the Pumpkin Plan transformed her business.Following the steps, Toni created a list of clients who bring her the most joy and a second list with her highest-value clients. Typically, a gym owner circles the clients on both lists to ID the members they want to replicate. In Toni's case, the groups had zero overlap. This insight pushed her to rethink her offerings and create a hybrid membership built around CrossFit, personal training and nutrition—a combo that delivers better results for clients and boosts average revenue per member.Now, regular Goal Review Sessions allow her to continue the conversation: She can catch problems early, celebrate successes and upgrade prescriptions to serve clients better. Toni also gives a behind-the-scenes look at the new-moms group she developed with her Two-Brain mentor. The support-centered program is already turning into a relationship-building referral funnel.

The Money Habit on How to Finally Take Control of Your Finances   What if your biggest money problem isn't how much you earn—but how you manage what you already have?   In this week's episode of Richer Soul, bestselling author Mike Michalowicz (Profit First, Clockwork, All In) returns to share insights from his new book, The Money Habit. It's a simple, behavior-based approach to mastering personal finances—no spreadsheets, guilt, or complicated budgets required.   Key Insights from the Conversation:  Making Money Is One Skill—Keeping It Is Another. Most people learn how to earn but never master how to keep money. Mike reminds us that wealth isn't built by income alone—it's built by intentional systems that preserve and direct your money before it slips away. Financial Independence vs. Financial Freedom. Financial freedom is doing what you want, when you want, without worrying about money. Financial independence means having authority over your money—so it no longer controls you. That authority starts with awareness. How Credit Cards and "Points" Hack Our Brains. Credit cards are engineered to make you spend more. Points and perks are psychological triggers that override rational decision-making. Mike shows how to flip the script by setting up commitment devices—systems that protect you from yourself. Build Your Money "Envelopes" at the Bank. Instead of one big account, divide your money into clear purposes—needs, wants, dreams, and slush funds. Label debit cards for each category. When you spend, you'll instantly see whether you're honoring your priorities or drifting off course. Teach by Example. Your kids don't learn about money from what you say—they learn from what you do. Modeling calm, structure, and intentional spending plants lifelong financial wisdom in the next generation.   Money Learning from Mike: We often think more money will solve our problems. It won't. The real transformation happens when we gain authority over what we already have. Whether you earn $50,000 or $500,000 a year, financial independence starts by giving every dollar a job before it leaves your account.   Key Takeaway: Financial peace isn't found in making more—it's found in mastering what you already have. Start small: create one new account for your biggest money worry today, label it clearly, and fund it consistently. Small actions, done repeatedly, become lifelong habits.   Bio: Mike Michalowicz (my-CAL-o-wits) is the entrepreneur behind four multi-million-dollar companies and the author of bestselling business books including Profit First, Clockwork, The Pumpkin Plan, and All In. His newest book, The Money Habit, is a groundbreaking approach to personal finance. The television host of The 4 Minute Money Maker and a former columnist for The Wall Street Journal, Mike now travels the world helping individuals grow thriving businesses and live richer lives.   Links: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MikeMichalowiczFanPage/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikemichalowicz/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikemichalowicz/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/mikemichalowiczofficial TikTok: Mike Michalowicz https://dontwritethatbookpodcast.com/ https://mikemichalowicz.com/mikespodcast/ https://substack.com/@mikemichalowicz?utm_source=user-menu   Hear the full conversation with Mike Michalowicz on the Richer Soul podcast — where we explore the systems and mindsets that help you live richer in every area of life.   #TheMoneyHabit #MikeMichalowicz #ProfitFirst #FinancialIndependence #WealthBuilding #MoneyMindset #RicherSoulPodcast #RockyLalvani   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

Most small business owners don't think about retained earnings until they desperately need them. Retained earnings are your business's safety net, growth fund, and stress reducer all rolled into one. Let's break down why retained earnings matter and how they help you prepare for upcoming purchases, cover payroll, reinvest in your business, avoid late fees, and keep your cash flow steady. When you build retained earnings, you build stability. When you ignore them, every surprise becomes a crisis. Let's talk about how to finally get ahead instead of constantly catching up. -----------------------------   CONTACT ME:

You'll learn how to focus on the right sales, make smarter decisions, and build a business that puts real money in your pocket. Because at the end of the day… sales are fun, but profit is freedom. -----------------------------   CONTACT ME:

Everyone wants to "scale," but here's the truth, growth isn't free.  More sales, more staff, more moving parts… and if you're not careful, less profit and longer hours. Let's talk about what it really takes to grow your business the smart way. Scaling can be exciting, but it can also drain your time, money, and sanity if you don't have a plan for every dollar you spend. You'll learn how to use your numbers to grow strategically, work on your business instead of in it, and make sure your profits grow right along with your sales. Because what's the point of a bigger business if you're still not getting paid?

Soooo this isn't the thing I'm most proud to share, but I just finally made my first paycheck from my business to myself. And I've been in business for over 7 years.But I know I'm not alone, and I know a lot of business owners have a difficult time setting money aside to pay themselves.So if that's you, this episode is for you.We're talking all about money, and specifically in context of The Profit First Method, a method of managing your finances that was created by Mike Michalowicz.In this episode you will learn:what the Profit First Method iswhy to use the Profit First Method (or something similar)the recommended percentages when you split your moneyhow to automate the processmy experience implementing the Profit First MethodThe bank account that I am using - and loving - with the Profit First Method is through Relay.

Show Summary: In this inspiring episode of the Grow My Accounting Practice podcast, Mike Michalowicz and Ron Saharyan sit down with Rachel Bernier-Green, founder and CEO of the Economic Justice Consortium (EJC), to explore how financial professionals can lead — and thrive in — the social impact revolution. Rachel shares how the booming $715B ESG investment market and the B-Corp movement are creating unprecedented opportunities for accountants, bookkeepers, and advisors who want to align profit with purpose. She reveals how EJC's equity-centered consulting model not only delivers measurable impact but also commands premium pricing and builds deep trust with clients. Listeners will hear real-world stories of purpose-driven businesses that have achieved both profitability and impact with EJC's guidance, and learn how values-aligned service providers gain a competitive advantage through stronger relationships and referral networks. Rachel also introduces B.R.I.D.G.E., EJC's innovative membership program that scales social impact while generating recurring revenue — proving that sustainability and growth can go hand in hand.
