A live workshop · Runs every month

The reporting secrets
we usually get
paid to keep.

One live workshop that hands you the whole reporting system — the why, the project, the team and the 90-day plan — so you can define, track and hit your run rates without hiring us to do it for you.

The problem, in one sentence

Most of us just generally feel like we're not hitting our run rates.

Feel — because we never defined them, never wrote down the aim, and never compared. Fixing that takes a system.

Define them

Total revenue, total expense, total profit — the top-side run rates. Most of us don't actually know ours, so we don't know we should change them.

1
Aim for them

Where are you aiming this month? A number you never wrote down is a number you were never going to hit.

2
Compare, monthly

Where were you aiming versus where did you get — on the expense side as well as the revenue side, every single month.

And the system that measures it isn't Dave. It isn't Dale, or Bill, or Rita. Your system isn't a person — it's a system. Reporting Secrets is where you build it.

The curriculum · Four sessions

Everything you'd hire us for. Taught instead.

What reporting is and where it fits in your company's story. How to run the project — scope, cost, duration, expectations. Who belongs on the team. And the system that makes it repeat.

You could run this format four times a year and never get tired of it. Because reporting changes every time the company does — the first hire, the tenth, the replacement of the person who ran it. The workshop is how the program survives all of them.

The offer

One seat. The whole system.

Where in your world is $1,000 too much for this? It's literally your run rates — how your company is actually doing. There's not a company alive that shouldn't run through it.

  • All four sessions, live: the why, the project, the team, the system
  • The run-rate tracker — aim vs. actual on revenue, expense and profit
  • The real numbers: what reporting costs, how long it takes, who to hire
  • Your 90-day reporting plan, written before you leave the room
  • A room of operators in your industry — the cross-pollination is free
  • 14 years of scars, compiled, so your project isn't the next one

Reporting Secrets

$997$1,000a steal

Four sessions, live, with the founder in the room. You leave with the run-rate tracker installed and a written 90-day plan — not a recording to watch someday.

Get your seat — $997

For founders, executives and the person you just put in charge of reporting.

Live, not a video course

You sit for it, in a room, on the clock. That's the point — the action of taking the time is the product.

No consultants required

The whole system handed over — everything we'd otherwise charge you to do on your behalf.

Any size company

A program that runs from a company of one to a company of one thousand.

Built to repeat

Sit once a year minimum, quarterly if you're serious. You'll hear it differently every time.

Not a one-and-done

A program that runs from a company of one to a company of 1,000.

Until you're making well north of $10 billion a year, you still need to do these things. The workshop is built to be sat again — and to onboard everyone who touches reporting after you.

Year one: you

You sit for it and install the system while reporting is still a one-person show. Ninety days later the tracker is just how the company runs.

Every new hire

When you hire the second person to run reporting, you'll start to lose track of the program. Send them through Reporting Secrets and they stay on target.

Every quarter

Even if you already know everything in it — especially then — sitting for it again bakes it into the operating system. You'll hear it differently every time.

Why you should listen to me

I'm a real person, and I've got the scars to prove it.

These are the secrets I've compiled over many, many tussles in the market with companies just like yours — where we got the scope wrong, the intention wrong, the timeline wrong. Where the ask wasn't reasonable, or wasn't understood the way it was meant.

Reporting Secrets is fourteen years of those lessons, taught in one sitting — so your reporting project skips the scars.

You definitely belong in Reporting Secrets.

You're going to enrich everybody else in the room, and they're going to enrich you — people in your industry, in your line of work, chasing the same numbers. I'll see you there.
