Topics

What Ben covers.

Every session is built around the same core insight: most B2B service companies have a profit problem disguised as a growth problem. Ben's talks give audiences a new framework for diagnosing and fixing it.

"A must-hear for any CEO or founder tired of working harder for less."

Diagnosing "Profititis"

Why revenue grows while profit stagnates - and the clinical framework for fixing it in 90 days.

The 50/20 Rule

The single most overlooked shortcut to doubling profitability without adding a dollar of revenue.

The Profit Prescription™

A four-step diagnostic and treatment plan that any B2B service founder can apply immediately.

Spotting Hidden Profit Killers

The five structural leaks that drain cash from companies that look healthy on the surface.

Profit Myths That Keep CEOs Stuck

The conventional wisdom about growth, cost-cutting, and accounting that actively works against founders.

Reclaiming the Entrepreneurial Dream

How to rebuild a business that rewards the owner - not just the revenue line.

A prepared, direct guest.

Ben does not hedge, does not use jargon, and does not give generic answers. Every conversation is grounded in real numbers and built around one question: why isn’t your revenue turning into real profit?

“A conversation your audience has not heard before.”

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Profit Doctor works with established, owner-led B2B service companies that have built real revenue but are not keeping enough of it - leaving millions in profit on the table.

The Profit X-Ray is a private 90-minute profit assessment. The goal is to identify and quantify how much additional profit and income can be unlocked in the next 3 to 6 months. We discuss your financials, pricing, client mix, and underlying cost structure to identify where profit is being lost. Most founders discover six figures or more in recoverable income within the first session.

Performance coaches focus on mindset, habits, and accountability. Business consultants typically focus on their areas of expertise like systems, processes, HR, sales, lead generation. We do that too - but our focus is on shifting from below average profit to above average profit and income. We help you unlock profit and cash from your current business quickly.

A CFO can help clean up your accounting and reporting, cash flow forecasting, budgeting and modelling, building dashboards, risk management, and M&A preparation. Top tier CFOs can run your company while you travel the world. But most midsized companies cannot afford a full time, top level CFO. Profit Doctor focuses exclusively on the gap between what your company produces and what you actually keep - and on closing that gap between your profit and income and that of top earners in your industry. We offer 5-10X return on your investment in year 1 at a price point that works for midsized companies.

The Profit Doctor 180 typically delivers six figures in additional profit within 90 days - without adding revenue. This is not a projection. It is the result of identifying and recovering profit that already exists inside the business but is currently being lost through a variety of profit leaks. Profit Doctor helps you plug those leaks by profit optimizing customer mix, product and service, team and payroll, and other financial levers.

The Profit Doctor 180 is a structured 180-day engagement. It includes the full diagnostic, a custom Profit Prescription™ built around your specific business, direct implementation support, and a 100% money back performance guarantee. You gain:

1. Immediate Profit Lift (First 90 Days) 2. Business model optimization - keep more of every dollar sold 3. Elimination of many of the most stressful and time consuming problems 4. Get the leadership team focused and working together to improve profit and cash 5. Improved financial confidence and competence for the leadership team 6. More money for you and to invest in the business

The program is delivered via live weekly zoom calls, some 1 on 1 private check ins, and backstopped with our learning portal. At a very tactical level we host weekly 75-minute group calls with discussion to share the key lessons and walk you through our step-by-step program. Additionally, there are office hours. Both of these group weekly sessions are delivered via Zoom in a group setting to CEO/Owner's of participating companies, their key executives, and often bookkeepers or accounting resources. Calls are recorded in case of scheduling conflicts they can be reviewed later in our learning portal. This is not just a training course - it is a group consulting program where we walk you through step by step to GET THE RESULTS of improved profit, income, and increased enterprise value.

Profit Doctor works with B2B service businesses across a wide range of industries - including professional services, staffing/recruiting, construction, engineering, consulting, and managed services. We love helping blue collar companies like construction, trades, and home services - they often get the fastest upside. The common thread is not the industry; it is their current profit and financial profile: real revenue, compressed margins, and an owner who is not being paid what the business should support.

Very first step is to have a 15-minute introductory call to assess if your situation and business is a fit for how we help companies double their profit. This is a free call for CEOs and owners of seven and eight figure companies. If there is a fit, we schedule the 90-minute Profit X-Ray. In the Profit X-Ray we identify and quantify the opportunity to unlock additional profit from your current business. There is no obligation and no sales pressure - the introductory call exists to make sure the engagement is the right fit for both of us.
