Being busy does not automatically mean you are profitable. Many home service business owners work long days, stay booked out, and still feel like money is always tight. In this episode of the Profitable Home Services podcast, I sit down with Ron Beckner to talk about what it really means to be financially literate as a business owner.

We dig into why so many skilled tradespeople were taught how to do the work but never taught how money actually works inside a business. If you want to stop guessing, reduce stress, and keep more of what you earn, this conversation will change how you think about your numbers.
