What Your Accountant Is Not Telling You

This session reveals the hidden financial pitfalls that many small businesses overlook—things standard accounting reports often don’t reveal—and explains how to interpret key metrics that drive long-term profitability and success.

You Can Hire a Manager, But You Can’t Hire an Owner

This session focuses on the critical mindset shift needed for growth. Shay explains how owners can lead with accountability and vision, even when others handle day-to-day operations.

These sessions promise to deliver practical insights that cleaning and restoration business owners can implement immediately. Whether you want to gain more value from your financial data or strengthen your leadership culture, Shay has strategies you won’t want to miss.

Questions to think about as you attend:

• What is the most overlooked financial indicator that business owners should be tracking—one that doesn’t typically appear on a standard profit and loss statement?
• What specific behaviors or decisions separate an owner’s mindset from that of even the best manager, and how can owners instill that mindset across their team?

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from one of the most experienced small business experts in the industry.
