A practical “profit first” operating system for any business: take profit off the top, park cash in dedicated accounts (Profit, Owner’s Pay, Operating Expenses, Tax), and force expenses to fit what remains. Pair that with clear pricing discipline, simple dashboards, and routine allocation rhythms to smooth cash flow, build buffers, and grow sustainably.
