Save my seat

You should know if your business is actually making money.

Money Lunches is a small group of business owners that meets once a month to go over their finances together. The idea is to be accountable to your group, trade resources, and stay on top of your finances.

Save my seat
Only 10 seats in the first room.

I thought my business was breaking even. It wasn't.

For years, I ran my businesses mostly on vibes. Then one day last year, I sat down and built an actual daily profitability tracker and realized I was losing money. I had no idea. I thought we were doing okay.

After that, I decided to sit down for lunch with myself once a month and go over all the finances to see what was really happening in my business.

Today, I know where every dollar is going, every single day. And at the end of every month, I get to true up, see how the month looked, and see what I need to change.

Now I want to share this process with you.

Sound familiar?

  • The only number you look at is your bank balance.
  • You haven't opened QuickBooks since tax season.
  • You're pretty sure you're making money, but you're not sure how much.

You're not bad with money. You've just never had a system, or anyone to keep you accountable.

How it works

Each month, you'll meet with a small group of business owners and work through this process:

  1. 1

    Clean up your QuickBooks.

  2. 2

    Check last month's projections. Did the month pan out how you thought?

  3. 3

    Create your P&L. What came in, what went out, and what you kept.

  4. 4

    Project next month. What's coming down the pipeline in sales, what you expect to make, and what costs are coming.

  5. 5

    Pick your priorities. Three things you want to attack next month.

Here's everything you get

  • A monthly call with a small group of business owners like you
  • A daily tracker so you know where you stand
  • The Money Lunches Notion template that walks you through the month
  • A Claude skill that does the boring parts for you
