    Choose Your Profit Goal
    We often consider profit to be whatever happens to be left over once we have covered our costs and expenses. At the Profit Lovers we put Profit at the top of our Goals list and work backwards from there... because Profit is NOT a Dirty Word! If you have never worked towards profit before try starting with a $100k profit goal to see what your sales goal would look like, and adjust from there.

    Enter Your COGS/COS $
    Some (not all) businesses have COGS/COS (cost of goods sold, cost of sales). This is the amount you spend on costs directly related to create your goodies!If you have a Profit and Loss report, or access to Xero or any other bookkeeping platform you can run your Profit and Loss report to find this number. Don't have access or can't figure it out?
