Ever wondered why your business is profitable on paper but your bank account says otherwise?

In this snapshot, Carl sits down with Gavin Smith, founder and CEO of The Profit Analyst, to break down the three-part finance ecosystem every business owner should know (but no one explains like this), and why looking at your bank account is basically like checking the weather and thinking you understand everything there is to know about climate change.

Gavin breaks it down in a way that actually makes sense, so you can stop managing your business by bank balance and start making strategic financial decisions with confidence.

If you've ever been blindsided by surprise expenses or thought “I’m making money, so why am I broke?” This episode will change how you look at your numbers forever.

Listen in and get the financial visibility you need to build a business that’s not just profitable, but sustainable.

Your business is like a machine. Each engine must run smoothly, or the whole thing stalls. If you're only focusing on sales, you’re running on fumes.

In this snapshot, Carl explores why marketing isn’t just about getting people in the door. It’s also about keeping them warm until they’re ready to buy. Think of it like popcorn in a movie theater: heat them up, let them pop, and then sales take over. But if you don’t have the right engines in place, your business could burn out fast.

If you want a business that thrives beyond just making sales, you need six key engines working together, including the often-overlooked leadership and wealth engines. Miss one, and your whole system starts to sputter.
