• Build Like You’re Going To Sell - Even If You Never Plan To
    Jul 7 2025

    Whether you plan to sell your business in three years or thirty, or never at all, you must build it as if it were an asset because it is.

    Why? Because businesses that are sellable are also scalable, sustainable, and significantly more profitable.

    In this episode of The Say Yes To Profits Podcast, I will show you how to build your business as if you're going to sell it, even if you never plan to do so; you create something powerful.

  • Signs You're Ready To Scale To 7 Figures
    Jun 30 2025

    Are you truly ready to scale your business to 7 figures — or would doing so lead to more stress and second-guessing? In this episode of Say Yes To Profits, we reveal the key signs that indicate you're prepared to grow without sacrificing your profit or peace of mind. Ask yourself:

    • Is your business generating consistent profits with strong margins of 20% or more?
    • Have you implemented all six Clarity-To-Profit systems for sustainable growth?
    • Do you have complete financial visibility — either through your own expertise or a trusted financial partner?
    • Is there a clear, strategic growth plan guiding your next moves?
    • And are you hitting a ceiling, feeling like you've outgrown your current team, systems, or structure?

    If you answered “yes” to most of these, you might be ready to scale. If not, you could be risking more than just money.

    Grab your free checklist or book a discovery session at SayYesToProfits.com/7figuresigns to gain the clarity, confidence, and financial security you need before leveling up.

  • From Unappreciated & Overlooked to Honorary Doctorate Degree
    Jun 23 2025

    Imagine showing up in obedience, building with integrity, and staying faithful through the highs and the lows, then one day, someone taps you on the shoulder and says, “I’ve been watching you… And I see your greatness.”

    That moment happened to me.

    In this powerful episode of the Say Yes To Profits® Podcast, I take you behind the scenes of receiving my honorary doctorate. This is a story of faith, favor, and the fruit of consistency.

    I share the emotional moment of walking across the stage again, the doors that opened afterward, and the divine connections I made in my graduating class.

    The moment is confirmation that God honors obedience and that people are watching, even when you think no one is.
