Imagine having a crystal clear understanding of your personal and business finances so there’s no longer confusion on how many clients to take, how to price, managing expenses and cash flow, and more... so that you may operate from a place of understanding and clarity versus stressing over the unknown. Imagine feeling confident charging what you are worth and living the life you've imagined for yourself.
The Profit Center Course has been expanded and is now available ONLINE!! Liana Hall has been teaching and coaching creative entrepreneurs for 15+ years and is passionate about helping others create strong visionary and financial foundations.
Profit Center is a six-week course designed to help creative entrepreneurs, makers, and innovators build a strong financial foundation for their business. Think of it as a mini-MBA but without the expensive and extremely mind-numbing classes!
If you are someone who is brilliant at what you do, but does not have an extensive business finance background, this is the course for you! We understand the struggle between working in-the-trenches of a creative small business and being able to take that birds-eye view to see the bigger picture for your business. We have been operating our own creative businesses for 20+ years so we know what goes into really understanding your business finances and the difference it makes when you pay attention to your "numbers."
Ready to see your business transformed? Join us for the February 24th, 2020 cohort, put in the work, and your business and life will never be the same again!
We'll unpack not just the mechanics of small business accounting and finance in a way that's easy to understand, but also walk you through mindset exercises each week so that you are taking positive steps daily towards maximizing your profits!
Imagine how your life and business could transform if you took a little time each week, for the next 6 weeks, to work towards creating a SOLID and STRONG financial foundation for your business.
Accountability, community, and support can make the difference between getting stuck and being highly successful in becoming the best CEO and CFO possible for your business. You will have access to our private and exclusive Facebook group for this very reason!
Have questions, need answers? You will have access to weekly Q&A sessions with Liana over the 6 week period. Can't make it live? The recordings will be available to watch later.
We know you are excited to get started RIGHT AWAY:
"Liana's ability to help creative entrepreneurs understand their true bottom line is unmatched. She has a solid understanding of business and is able to communicate that information effectively. Her courses aren't for the timid, but it will whip your profitability into shape in a short amount of time. It's amazing that so many of us think we're being profitable when we're not aware of all the numbers. Her teaching style is personable and warm - I'd highly recommend her seminars and courses on business. "
This bonus workshop covers a lot of the necessary but not-so-glamourous "housekeeping" items that all small business owners need to address:
It's difficult to run a successful business when your personal and home health are not ideal. In this bonus session, Liana shares some of the habits that have helped her personally on her own health journey under the observation and guidance of a Harvard MD naturopath, traditional MDs, sports therapist, decluttering expert, postpartum therapist, and her fitness health and mindset coach. Maybe a few of these things could help you too! When you have abundant health, abundant wealth comes easier!
Ready to get started on creating a solid financial foundation for your business, making more money, and keeping more of your hard-earned cash?
Join the February 2020 cohort to start the new year (and new DECADE!) off right! Classes begin February 24, 2020 but you will have access to get started immediately with the pre-work and first few lessons!
ABSOLUTELY! The information taught is something ALL small business owners will benefit from understanding, mastering, and applying to their own life and business.
We’ve personally been in business in creative fields for the past 20+ years… so we know how many people NEED this information in our respective industries. This is why we focus on helping those businesses but honestly ALL can WILL benefit if the information is applied and action taken.
However, the information taught it not just "what works for us" but also the same principals taught at Harvard Business and most accredited colleges in the USA and abroad.
We get it. This is what we fondly call the “not fun stuff about running a business” and we agree it gets a bad rap. BUT we can’t tell you how many creatives have been transformed by learning to LOVE this stuff!
Liana has been teaching managerial accounting and finance to creative entrepreneurs for 15+ years now — she learned quickly that boring stogy technical stuff doesn’t fly and how to make this stuff a little more digestible for you. Taking the full six weeks to go through the course versus doing it all in a day or two will REALLY help you embrace the “not fun stuff” and really learn to LOVE crunching numbers. We promise not to make it as boring as business school!
We purposely set up the course to only take 1-3 hours of your time each week — so we hope you will follow along through the progression and do the homework which is designed to help you apply the information to your own life and business.
We understand things get busy though, which is why you will have lifetime access to the lessons should you need to pickup where you left off, or revisit lessons a year later!
A CEO is a Chief Executive Officer - the highest-ranking person in a company or other institution, ultimately responsible for making managerial decisions. In small businesses, this roll is typically held by the founder and owner of the business.
A CFO is a Chief Financial Officer - a senior executive with responsibility for the financial affairs of a corporation or other institution. In small business, the owner and founder typically ALSO holds this title unless they are big enough to hire it out or have a business partner that can take on this roll.
Liana has a Bachelors of Science in Entrepreneurship Small Business Management and a Bachelor of Science in Marketing.
Liana also has a Certification in Commercial Photography Technology and will be attending Duke Integrative Medical in 2020 to complete her Integrative Health Coach Certification.
