Welcome!

 

 

You have just found the best online tool for small businesses. Decisions about how to manage your business should never be a guessing game. My purpose is to assist business owners and managers to increasing their profits and build their business for the future. I strive to achieve this through magazine articles, books, seminars,customized consulting services, and partnerships with other like minded businesses. I work with families and individuals whose livelihood depends on the results of the business. It’s an honor and a privilege to to work with and for businesses which serve their community.

As a fourth generation small business owner and speaker  I created Profits Plus to provide assistance to small business owners through a vast array of tools—calculators, magazine articles, books, seminars plus—all created with the experience and expertise I’ve gained from the past 30 years. The purpose of Profits Plus is also the mission statement: "Increasing your profits plus building your business for the future. We are Profits Plus".

I also work with manufacturers and wholesalers to help their staffs understand the complexity and challenges these small businesses face. Helping suppliers gain the knowledge to assist these small businesses allows the supplier to be a more valuable partner.

As you strive for success you listen to experts speak, read an article or book they’ve written, talk with them one-on-one, always in search of proven results. You want someone who has "been there and done that."I can point you to proven results.

Just ask me.

Small Business

AdvisoriES


Seems like today, everyone is a consultant for something. Most small businesses owners have likely received an email, phone call, or visit from someone wanting to sell the services of a consultant.

 

You might find the right combination of consultants (let's call them advisors) in your own neighborhood. And they would likely trade their advice for some advice from you. This month's Small Business Advisory explains how.

Top Story

November has two special events tailored to small businesses. The first occurs in the third week of the month. It's the Great American Teach In Day. Your help will be needed and appreciated.

 

The second event is Saturday, November 28 - Small Business Saturday. Details of how to participate in each is in this month's newsletter.

Article of the Month

Approaching the end of the year, many small businesses start to consider their pay scale for 2027. With some small businesses, bonuses at the end of the year are a tradition. The article of the month shares ideas of how to approach payroll as the new year approaches.


Book of the Month

You are awesome at what you do. You are a small business owner and that takes a lot of bravery to do what you do.

 

Part of what you requires what Malcolm Gladwell calls, "thin slicing." Others refer to it as "gut feeling." The book of the month talks about the need to stop doubting your greatness.

All this plus the Internet Tool for Your Business and a staff incentive idea for your business.
