EP 278: Why Your Business Feels Broke (Even When Sales Are Up) w/ Austin McMillian

You’re closing deals. Revenue looks strong.So why does your business still feel broke?

In this episode, Austin McMillian delivers a hard truth most entrepreneurs avoid: sales do not equal success. If you’re not tracking the right numbers, you’re working harder than a W2 job for less freedom, more stress, and thinner margins.

We unpack why service-based business owners get stuck chasing growth while profits disappear, how messy financials quietly sabotage great businesses, and the simple metrics that actually determine whether your company survives or fails.

If you’ve ever thought:

• “We’re busy, but the bank account never reflects it”

• “Sales will fix this eventually”

• “I don’t really understand my P&L, but I should”

This episode is for you.

Austin breaks down labor efficiency, simplified financial buckets, and why profit has to come first, not last. No fluff. No finance jargon. Just clarity for entrepreneurs who are tired of grinding without winning.
