FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS
You were handed the keys to your business. Nobody gave you the manual.
The October Plan Your Profit Challenge is 3 days of live training that gives you what no one else will: a real understanding of how to design a business that actually pays you — backed by the bookkeeping and CFO tools to make it real.
You're not bad with money. You just speak a different language than your bookkeeper.
You've built something real. You work hard. You care deeply. And yet every time someone asks about your numbers — or worse, every time you look at them yourself — something tightens in your chest.
You're not sure what you actually made last month. Not really.
You know you should pay yourself more consistently, but you don't know what's safe. So you wait. And the waiting becomes a habit. And the habit becomes years.
You tell yourself: I just need more sales. If I could just get more clients. If revenue goes up, everything will get easier.
But more revenue without a system just means more chaos at a higher volume.
It's so tempting to think that more sales will make it all easier. But what you really need is visibility and structure. And the fact that you don't have that is not your fault.
When you started your business, no one required you to pass a test. No one handed you a roadmap. No one sat you down and said: here is how profit actually works, here is how to pay yourself on purpose, here is what to do when an IRS letter shows up so you don't feel like the world is ending.
You were handed the keys and sold good luck.
This week, we fix that.
THIS IS YOUR NEXT STEP.

A 3-DAY LIVE EXPERIENCE
Your business is already making money. Now learn how to turn that success into profit, pay, and wealth for you.
Three days, live with Catherine. One hour each day on Zoom from 11:00 AM EST.
This is not a course you’ll save for someday. Over three focused days, you’ll work with the numbers in your actual business so you can understand what they’re telling you, create a plan for the money you’re making, and see where you’re headed before the year happens to you.
By the end of Day 3, you won’t just have more financial information. You’ll know how to use it to plan your profit.
Day 1: Plan Your Profit
Revenue isn't the goal. Designing profit on purpose is. We rewrite the equation most business owners are working from — the one that has them optimizing for the wrong number entirely — and you leave Day 1 with a different definition of what your business is actually for.
Day 2: Plan Your Pay
Your gross profit is your salary potential. We translate Day 1's worldview into a real personal number: what you can safely pay yourself this year, given what the business is actually doing. No more "I'll pay myself when things slow down." That sentence is keeping you stuck.
Day 3: Build Your Wealth Plan
On Day 3, you'll see what needs to happen next if you want to turn the successful business you've already built into a wealth-creating asset.
We'll look forward at the next 12 months so you can see where you're headed, what needs to change, and which moves matter most if you want your business to produce more than sales.
More pay. More profit. More money accumulating toward the life you actually want to create.
This challenge is for small business owners who:
YOU’RE TIRED OF GUESSING
You check your bank balance to decide what you can spend. You’re unsure what you can safely pay yourself. Tax season makes your stomach drop.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE CAPABLE OF MORE
You’re generating revenue — but you don’t feel financially secure. You want clarity around your real numbers, not just activity. You’re ready to build profit intentionally from this point forward.
YOU WANT STRUCTURE -- NOT MORE HUSTLE
You don’t need another tactic. You need a financial operating system. One that makes your salary visible, your tax plan intentional, and your growth predictable.
IF YOU'RE NODDING ALONG...YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

Catherine
Founder of The Small Business Planner®
I've built multiple profitable seven-figure businesses in 18 months or less. I have an MBA from Columbia Business School. My work has been featured in Forbes, the Wall Street Journal, and by Nasdaq. I've spoken at Harvard Business School. I've helped thousands of small business owners get clarity on their numbers — without shame, without jargon, and without making you feel like you need a finance degree to understand your own business.
But the credential that matters most for this week isn't on my resume.
It's that I lived this. I started businesses without a roadmap. I got the scary IRS letters. I've been the person who worked 80-hour weeks and still couldn't answer the question: am I actually making money?
I became obsessed with solving this problem — not just for myself, but for every business owner who was handed the keys and told good luck.
This challenge is the manual you were never given.
