episode Why Your $7 Million Business Might Only Be Worth $700K With Chris Papin cover

Why Your $7 Million Business Might Only Be Worth $700K With Chris Papin

In this episode, Natalie Koop and Danielle Putnam sit down with Chris Papin — CPA, attorney, business advisor, author of 168 Hours, and host of the BLABO (Behave Like A Business Owner) Podcast — to talk about the financial habits that separate growing businesses from struggling ones. Chris breaks down why so many business owners avoid their numbers, the difference between owning a business and actually behaving like a business owner, and why the company you think is worth $7 million may only be worth $700,000 when a real valuation hits the table. He also unpacks the 8-8-8 pie chart for sustainable business owner life, the one number every owner should know weekly, and the uncomfortable conversation most entrepreneurs are avoiding. If you're a contractor, service business owner, or anyone tired of guessing on bad data, this episode is full of straight-talk financial wisdom you can put to work this week.

Why Your CSR Keeps Saying "Yes"- and Burning Out Your Techs!

Today we sat down with Amy Matheny, General Manager and Co-Owner of Reliability Home Services, to talk about a common issue in service businesses—CSRs saying “yes” when they should be saying “no.” What seems like good customer service often leads to overbooked schedules, burnt-out technicians, and frustrated customers. Amy breaks down the concept of “Eat the Frog,” how avoiding hard conversations creates bigger problems, and how to train your team to confidently set expectations. If your team struggles with overbooking or communication, this episode is a must-listen.

Revenue Is Vanity: The Numbers Contractors Must Track to Actually Make Profit

In this episode, Danielle Putnam, CEO of The New Flat Rate, dives into why revenue alone doesn’t equal profit and what contractors really need to track to make their businesses sustainable. Using real-world examples, she breaks down the key metrics, like call booking rates, conversion by van, labor-to-revenue ratios, and cost per acquisition, that reveal where money is being lost and how to fix it. Danielle shares simple, actionable steps to track the right numbers weekly, turn data into decisions, and build a business that’s not just bigger, but genuinely profitable.
