Manage Cash Flow With 'Profit First' Mike Michalowicz Shares What You Need to Know
Running the day-to-day operations of a business while also managing the money can be difficult to juggle for many small-business owners. Even if they have systems and processes in place, these methods don’t always work as well as they should and can easily become difficult to navigate. When you hit this kind of wall, it can be hard to keep your focus on growing a profitable business. Enter Mike Michalowicz and his book “Profit First: Transform Your Business from a Cash-Eating Monster to a Money- Making Machine.” The book was published in 2014 but was updated in 2017. It’s been a huge hit, garnering rave reviews from the business world due to its simple yet innovative profit-first formula. The book has been so successful because Michalowicz has faced these types of challenges before, and he used these experiences to develop principles that make life (and business) that much easier for small- business owners. You’ll get the scoop on Michalowicz’s profit-centered approach and how his innovative system flips traditional accounting on its head, making money management more streamlined. If you find yourself struggling to manage the financial side of your business, then he has you covered. His tips are especially useful for businesses that have cash flow that varies from month to month or that have a peak season. Michalowicz’s insight is even more valuable
in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, as business owners and entrepreneurs everywhere look to get back on track in the second half of 2020, boost their businesses,
and recover lost profits.
If you’re a seasoned business owner and are already money- minded and exceptionally
organized, this book will likely serve as a quick refresher, but if you’re a startup business owner and want to improve your accounting systems and catapult your profits, then “Profit First” is just what you need.

The Most Famous Art Heist You’ve Never Heard Of
One hundred and nine years ago this month, one man — or was it three? — fled from the Louvre Museum in Paris, carrying what would quickly become the world’s most famous painting: Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa.” Historical accounts of the theft agree only on who was the ringleader: 30-year-old Louvre handyman Vincenzo Peruggia. At some point on Aug. 21, 1911, Peruggia lifted the glass case he himself had constructed to house the “Mona Lisa” and stole the painting. Some versions of the story say Peruggia was assisted by two brothers, fellow Italian handymen Vincenzo and Michele Lancelotti. Peruggia successfully spirited the painting back to his one-bedroom apartment, where it lay concealed in a false-bottomed trunk for more than two years. Peruggia was eventually caught attempting to sell the painting in Italy and spent eight months in jail.
