Workshop 4: How Do I Know If I’m Profitable?
You have growth. You have customers. Now you need to know – am I profitable?
Here, we will introduce you to the costs of your business. We will define Costs of Goods Sold, and common mistakes founders make with these. We will also discuss Operational Expenditures – that’s things like your talent and foundational business costs.
You can have customers, you can be revenue positive, and still not be profitable. Costs matter! And they’re not as scary as you think.
