Releases December 9, 2025



Guest:  Sonny Grappone, Founder of Precision Accounting cConsulting

Host: Marcia Riner, Business Growth Strategist, CEO of Infinite Profit®



 

🎯 Episode Summary


Most business owners make decisions in the dark, relying on gut feelings, half-read P&Ls, and whatever their bookkeeper emails at tax time. In this episode, we break down how proactive accounting, clean financial systems, and smarter job costing give you real control over cash flow, hiring, pricing, and growth. You will hear how one shift in job costing improved margins by 30 percent, why “I can make payroll” is a dangerous metric, and how to use tax planning and incentives to fund growth instead of starving it. If you want your numbers to support bigger decisions, not surprise you later, this conversation will change how you look at your books.
