Join us in today's episode as we delve into a fundamental concept that might be at the core of your cashflow struggles.
📊 The 30-30-30 Rule: To maintain a healthy financial balance in your business, your revenue should be divided into three key areas:

- 30% Profit: Ensuring you have enough left over for growth and sustainability.
When these areas get out of balance, your cashflow can take a hit. We discuss why the wage ratio is crucial, the impact of team performance, managing gaps in your appointment books, and ways to boost client retention.
Don't let cashflow problems hold your business back.
