The problem

Most small business owners don't actually know what their numbers mean.

They know revenue is up or down. They know the account balance. But they don't know their real profit margin, whether their Profit First allocations are right, or which expenses are quietly eating their business alive.



One honest look at your numbers — with someone who knows what to look for — changes everything.

No tax reserves — a liability building silently
Most small businesses aren't setting aside the right percentage for taxes. The bill comes due at year-end. The cash isn't there.
Operating expenses above Profit First targets
When OpEx runs above 30% of real revenue, profit margin collapses. Most owners don't see it until it's already happened.
Cash reserves under 2 weeks
Less than one month of operating expenses in reserve means one slow week can create a cash crisis. Most businesses are living there.
Revenue up, profit flat — no explanation
Growing revenue without growing profit means the money is going somewhere. The Health Check finds exactly where.

Every section of your
financial picture.

Your report is generated live during your 30-minute session and delivered to your inbox same day. Bank statements or financial statements — whichever you have.

01
Profit First Allocation Targets
Your actual allocations vs. Profit First targets across all five accounts — Income, Profit, Owner Pay, Tax, and OpEx. Immediately shows where money is going and where it should be going.
02
Profitability & Key Metrics
Gross and net profit margins, monthly burn rate, cash reserve runway, revenue trend, cost of goods/services — eight metrics that give you the real picture of financial health.
03
Revenue Breakdown
Revenue by source with percentage share and trend. Identifies concentration risk, your highest-margin streams, and where diversification is needed.
04
Red Flags Identified
Every financial risk identified and categorized — Critical, Warning, or Monitor — with a clear description of the impact and what needs to happen to address it.
05
Cost-Cutting Opportunities
Specific expenses identified for reduction or elimination, with estimated annual savings for each. No general advice — actual line items from your financials.
06
Prioritized Recommendations
Numbered action items ranked by impact — what to do first, second, and third. Each with a clear rationale and expected outcome. A decision tool, not a summary.

What your report
looks like.

A real, structured deliverable — not a summary email. Here's a preview of two sections from a typical Health Check report.

Profit First allocation targets
Revenue
$84,200
Real revenue baseline
Profit
1.8%
↓ Target: 5%
Owner Pay
48%
→ Target: 50%
Tax
4%
↓ Target: 15%
OpEx
46%
↑ Target: 30%
Red flags identified
!
Tax reserves critically underfunded at 4% of revenue
Profit First recommends 15%. At current levels a tax liability is accumulating that will create a cash crisis at year-end.
Critical
Operating expenses running 16 points above Profit First target
OpEx at 46% vs. a 30% target is the primary driver of compressed margins. A line-by-line audit is needed.
Warning
i
Revenue concentration risk — 62% from one service line
Heavy dependence on a single stream creates vulnerability. Diversification opportunity identified.
Monitor
