ABOUT THE BOOK
Why you're not your business (and why that matters) is a transformational guide for entrepreneurs and small business owners ready to take ownership of their financial future with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
If reading a financial statement feels like cracking a foreign code, you're not alone or stuck. In this practical, eye-opening book, you will learn how to grow your business beyond its day-to-day survival. Drawing from their acclaimed workshop "Investing in Your Future," transformational leadership consultant Kelly Townsend and financial literacy expert Peter Frampton guide you to shift the way you see your business, your numbers, and yourself.
You'll learn to confront limiting beliefs that keep your business in scarcity.
You'll access a new way to understand your income statements and balance sheets to make powerful decisions rooted in real numbers, not guesswork. More importantly, you'll begin building a "you and me" business - one where every team member is invested in shared outcomes.
Pineapple and Profits gives you a new context for leadership and a practical pathway to create a business built to succeed for the long term.
Concepts and tools only work when you use them. So don't just read this book. Live it. Implement it. Make it real in your business. This is our invitation to you, and we’re thrilled to be on the journey with you.
