Annette de Lancey, CEO of CastCoverz! and She Makes Products, Now A Profit First Certified Professional
Dec 15, 2022It's your business. Your profit should come first!
I am not your typical business coach. I am a business strategist and a Certified Profit First Professional. But, not for every business. I love small business. I love manufacturing. But I am crazy passionate about helping women product manufacturers grow, build, and scale their company profitably! How did I get here? I have hands-on experience in guiding women-owned manufacturing companies to grow profitably, including my own, CastCoverz!, a rockin' fun, 14-year-old, 7-figure, job creating, Made-In-The-USA, profitable, manufacturing company.
Through my years of manufacturing I learned a few things:
- As a manufacturer we are creators. Creators of things. Creators of meeting our customer's needs. Creators of jobs.
- Manufacturing drives innovation and adds well-paid jobs to the economy
- Manufacturing in the US is becoming revitalized so we are cool.
- Women in manufacturing are rare (and oh so very special)
- Women manufacturers have limited resources compared to their male counterparts. And if they haven't broken through the 6-figure revenue barrier that makes them particularly vulnerable to bankruptcy, failure, or accepting mediocre results.
CONFESSION: I was a REVENUE SNOB. Meaning I was so focused about the top line revenue that I neglected the bottom line: my company's profit. My uneducated snobbery and neglect led me to sleepless nights, desperate attempts at the "next big sale," and almost losing my business, twice. That's when I found the world's leading business cash-flow management system, Profit First, and learned that REVENUE is a vanity metric. PROFIT is the metric my business deserved and ultimately what I needed. Being profitable not only helps me determine my level of success but also gives me restful nights, more money in my pocket, and the satisfaction that I am creating a real, tangible asset. As a result, I started spreading the news about the gains, the benefits, and the clarity of Profit First. That's when I decided I wanted to go "public" with my crush on Profit First. So, I went through the vigorous process of getting certified as a Profit First Professional (it isn't for the weak!). I have the strategies to make your business profitable and get you there much faster than I did! And I am ready to do it with you!
