Foreign.
I'm Mike McAllow, the co founder of Profit First Professionals and we are right now at Profit First GlobalCon 2015.
I have one question. Why aren't you here? Today is going to be amazing. I'm like, oh my God, we'll get.
Into, you know, the.
Gold star for dill over there. So became the proper first professional before I think the actual organization really kind of took hold. So I've followed from the toilet paper entrepreneur to the pumpkin plan. And then I got a first draft copy of Profit first, read through it, typos and all, and thought that it was absolutely brilliant, very simple. And I immediately put it into play at my company office heads.
I read the Profit first book and I knew I had to become a part of this organization. I had so many clients that could benefit from the Profit first methodology and I knew I could as well. So I contacted them immediately when I finished the book, like I finished it at midnight and I was sending the email that night saying, I want to be a part of this.
Mike articulates it in such a way. I mean, I've been trying to teach my clients to take their Profit first for years, but it was just a simple way to do it.
It's such a simple program to use that I knew my colleagues in the event industry would totally benefit from it. So there was no doubt in my mind that introducing them to it would take them to the next level. And everybody that I've talked to has just been kind of mind blowing.
So this is our wishing wall. The whole idea behind this is people have wishes, wishes that they make and then wishes that can be granted. I mean, imagine that you're at this conference right now yourself and you want someone to grant a wish. Maybe you want a new client, maybe you want to target a new community, a new area. Well, someone in room somewhere can answer.
That wish for you.
This is how we're doing it. We built this whole wall. You put your name, you write your.
Wish down and then someone granted.
Granted. Boom.
That's how wishes are done.
Profit first headquarters. Mike and Ron and Aaron have given us, given me such great advice on how to things that I knew but I just wasn't bringing forward.
I wish I found them.
