How much can you pay yourself in your small business? The answer isn't a guess, it starts with knowing your numbers.

Too many business owners pull money out daily for food, gas, or personal expenses without realizing they're already paying themselves… just without a plan. If your pricing doesn't include your labor hours, you're underpaying yourself before you even start. Your Profit & Loss statement shows you the real flow of money in and out of your business and helps you determine what's actually available.

In this video, we break down how to think about paying yourself both as an "employee" in your business and as the owner. Whether it's salary, owner draws, or both! It all starts with understanding your current situation and building a plan around real numbers. If you want to get paid consistently and confidently, your numbers have to lead the way.
