Profit! We all want it, right!? But how do you manage it? How much profit do you need to reach your goals? How profitable do you need to be? How can you plan for profitability? What does profit need to do for you?
In this video, we cover 5 things that your profit needs to cover in order to have a financially healthy and sustainable business. We cover:
1) taxes
2) owner's pay
3) reinvestments
4) debt payments
5) savings
Profit has to be high enough for you to achieve your financials goals in any small business! Remember that most small businesses are CASH basis, so the profit at the end of the day typically equals Money in Money out. But we also need to remember that things like borrowing from a line of credit or paying off debt does NOT land on the income statement, it lands on the balance sheet.
