Welcome to Day 14 of the Double Your Profit Series — the go-to profit series for contractors, home service owners, and small business entrepreneurs. Today, we’re diving into one of the simplest, most powerful habits you can build: Making Your P&L a Daily Tool.

How knowing your break-even day changes your decision-making
Why a fast feedback loop is the key to being profit-first
