Listen now
Description
With all of the economic uncertainty going on right now, I have focused the last several episodes on money and finances in business. I continue to get questions surrounding this topic so I’m diving deeper into it in this episode.  A lot of you have been asking what I personally have been doing with my money in my business, so in this quick tip episode of Art of Online Business, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at my business and how I view my business expenses.  My view has evolved over the last several years. At first, I spent freely. If I wanted something, I got it. After a while though, I really started to be conscious of my money, and I realized that my profit margins were much lower than I expected. That’s when I started to change my mindset around my business.  We’re here to make an impact, and we can’t make an impact if our business isn’t making any money. I am now much more strategic and intentional about my business expenses and look at it all from an ROI perspective and not just a financial one.  In this episode, you’ll learn: How I used to manage my money in the early years of my businessWhen I realized that my profit margins were lowThe way my bookkeeper helped me change my mindsetThe 2 different categories that I put my expenses intoWhy I prefer to see them as investments instead of expensesHow I evaluate ROIs on the business expensesThe way I look at profit margins for my offers Links & Resources: The Art of Online Business websiteDM me on InstagramVisit my YouTube channelThe Art of Online Business clips on YouTubeFull episodes of The Art of Online Business Podcast on YouTubeThe Art of Online Business Podcast websiteCheck out my Accelerator coaching program Full show notes available at www.rickmulready.com/631
