- Economía y empresa
Win Win - An Entrepreneurial Community is where successful entrepreneurs share how they accomplish the tricky parts of growing their business so everyone in the community (that’s you!) can do the same. Topics range from how to hire good people in a scalable way, branding, marketing, baking your values and culture into the whole team, to learning how to scale the business. Whether your business is a startup or multi-million dollar business, our host and guests teach tools you can use in every episode.
Your host is Ben Wolf, a native Nashvillian currently living in Long Island, NY. Ben practiced industrial real estate brokerage and then went on to go to law school at night and practice as a corporate restructuring and bankruptcy attorney for five years in New York City. He then joined a visionary entrepreneur to help him create a mission-driven, technology powered healthcare startup in the home care space. Using the principles and tools of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS®), he was the company’s Chief Development Officer, building up the majority of its operational divisions and leading a variety of projects until, after three years, it was the largest and fastest growing organization of its type in the State.
Now, as Chief Integration Officer at Wolf’s Edge Consulting, Ben liberates founders of entrepreneurial businesses (“trapped Visionaries”) to help them return to the parts of the business they love while executing on their vision using EOS tools. You can read more about that at www.WolfsEdgeConsulting.com.
The Win Win podcast creates a venue where successful entrepreneurs can pay it forward by sharing actionable information, tools, and knowledge that other members of the entrepreneurial community can immediately put into action in their own businesses.

181 - Profit as a Habit, Not a Result - Chris White & Jason Petro
So many business owners got tired of never having any profit left after day-to-day business and then had their minds blown by Mike Michalowicz's book, Profit First.
The problem is that just from reading the book, many people can't successfully implement the framework and take advantage of all of its "take your profit first" promises.
This episode features two guests who talk about the solution they came up with for that problem. The first is Jason Petro, a 3X entrepreneur, certified Profit First coach, and co-founder of ProfitPro.app.
Our other guest is also a co-founder of ProfitPro.app, Chris White, a 7x entrepreneur, co-founded Ninety.io, former Expert EOS Implementer, and co-founder of the System and Soul BOS coaching system.
Chris and Jason share how the software system they created, ProfitPro.app, solves that and how business owners can maximally utilize the Profit First Model.
