"What if, rather than you seving your business, your business served you? What if you could turn a profit from your very next deposit? And what if you had the power to guarantee that profitability?

In his signature frank and compassionate tone, Michalowicz reveals why the traditional accounting formula of Sales - Expenses = Profit is not just counterintuitive to human behavior, but a myth that locks you into a never-ending cycle of selling more yet profiting less. In Profit First, Michalowicz explains how this age-old accounting formula turns great businesses into cash-eating monsters, trapping you in a day-to-day, check-to-check struggle to survive. He reveals how to flip that "Frankenstein Formula" and take profit first without compromising your business, and why the Profit First Formula of Sales - Profit = Expenses actually forces innovation, supports sustained growth and skyrockets profits. You are about to discover the step-by-step Profit First system that shows you how to radically change the financial health of your business.from your very next deposit." - from the inner front jacket flap.
