About this listen

Most founders plan for growth. Few plan for profit — and that’s why so many end up scaling revenue while their margins quietly disappear.

In this episode, we walk through the exact process CFOs use to build a profit-first operating plan for the year ahead. You’ll learn how to set targets you can actually hit, how to protect margin as you scale, and how to build a financial structure that supports growth instead of fighting it.

Inside this episode:

  • How to define a realistic profit target for 2026
  • The expense categories that quietly erode margin
  • How to set revenue goals based on profitability, not hope
  • Why founders consistently overspend in Q1 — and how to avoid it
  • The CFO method for turning a plan into a profitable execution rhythm

If you want 2026 to be the year your business stops guessing and starts operating with financial confidence, this episode gives you the roadmap.
