Are you working harder than ever, hitting seven figures in revenue, yet finding your bank account stubbornly empty?
For many visionary entrepreneurs, success feels like navigating through a dense fog where the harder you push, the more you drift. If you’ve ever felt like your financial math is fundamentally broken—or if you’re tired of “cookie-cutter” systems that don’t respect your creative genius—this conversation is for you.
In this episode, we sit down with Nate Littlewood, a fractional CFO who specializes in helping e-commerce and consumer product founders move from financial denial to total enlightenment.
Nate doesn’t just talk about spreadsheets; he treats financials as a strategic ally for growth, helping you decide which “shiny objects” to pursue and which ones are actually bottlenecks holding you back.
What we explore in this session:
- The “Where’s the Funds?” Reality: Why high revenue doesn’t always equal high profit and how to find where your cash is leaking.
- Moving Beyond Denial: The four phases every founder goes through regarding their numbers—and how to reach the stage where your data gives you confidence instead of overwhelm.
- The Bottleneck Analysis: A simple framework to filter 30 “great ideas” down to the two or three that will actually 4x your impact.
- Cash as Oxygen: Why profitable businesses go bankrupt and how to manage your lifeblood during seasonal shifts.
- The ROI of Your Time: How to align your projects with your team’s actual skills so you stop kicking “30-pound bowling balls.”
Stop sailing blind. It’s time to stop fighting the fog and start navigating it with a steady compass.
