Dad Joke
Aaron: My doctor told me I’m suffering from paranoia.
Well, she didn’t actually say that, but I could tell that’s what she was thinking.
Purpose to Profit
1. Starting the Journey – Let’s start at the beginning. Can you share a little about your garment decorating journey and what business looked like for you before money and profit really became a focus?
2. Relationship With Money – Before you started working through this, how would you describe your relationship with money in your business? What felt frustrating or unclear?
3. Why “Purpose” Came First – When did you realize that purpose had to come before profit for you? What wasn’t working when profit was the only focus?
4. Masters of Success Influence – How did your experience inside Masters of Success shape the way you started thinking about numbers, decisions, and intentionality in your business?
5. The Budget Word Problem – You’ve said the word “budget” never really worked for you. What was it about traditional budgeting that always felt off or restrictive?
6. The Shift From Tracking to Directing – What changed when you moved from just tracking what happened with money to intentionally directing where money should go?
7. Profit First as a Concept – When you first heard about profit first ideas, what resonated with you and what didn’t quite fit your real world business?
8. Making Decisions With Clarity – How has having clearer numbers changed the way you make decisions month to month, even when things don’t go exactly as planned?
9. Managing the Emotional Side – What surprised you most about the emotional side of managing money once you started doing this differently?
10. What Might Be Coming – Without locking anything in, what possibilities do you see for how this could evolve or help other business owners in the future?
11. Advice for Where People Are Now – For someone listening who feels overwhelmed by their numbers and stuck between purpose and profit, what’s one mindset shift you’d encourage them to consider first?
