Unlocking Profitable Outcomes with the Simple Profits Operating System

In today's world, it has become more critical than ever to equip businesses with the right tools to succeed. The ideal business model is one that is efficient, flexible, scalable, and, most importantly, profitable. To achieve these objectives, we have developed an operating system at our advisory firm, Simple Profits, called the Simple Profits Operating System.

Introducing the Simple Profits Operating System

The Simple Profits Operating System is a mechanism designed to optimize business operations, driving them towards profitable outcomes. The operating system emerged from our experience and proven methodologies at our advisory firm, Simple Profits, and our Bootstrapper Capital firm.

Our philosophy is straightforward: We aim to do for other businesses what we have successfully done for ourselves—crafting a pathway to simple, profitable outcomes. This objective led us to the concept of "wedge equity."

Understanding Wedge Equity

In essence, wedge equity is about making a deal or a business venture more valuable over time. It's about incremental growth, focusing on developing the worth of an operation bit by bit. This concept serves as a guiding principle for our advisory firm and operating system.

However, we realized that the journey to wedge equity isn't a straightforward one. It relies on three key pillars: structures, strategies, and accountabilities. Structures and strategies give you a clear vision and a roadmap to your destination, while accountabilities ensure you stay on track.

The Power of Structure, Strategy, and Accountability

Imagine having the most detailed map but no discipline or sense of accountability to reach your destination—you likely won't go far. On the flip side, having the determination (accountability) but no map (structures and strategies) will also leave you wandering aimlessly. Hence, it is evident that structures, strategies, and accountabilities must work in harmony for businesses to reach their desired goals.

The Simple Profits Operating System encapsulates these principles. It brings together the best practices of structure and strategies and couples them with a strong sense of accountability. It embodies a "teach, train, equip" approach that allows businesses to systematically implement it.

Deep Dive into the Simple Profits Operating System

The primary intention of our operating system is to provide businesses with a robust mechanism for organizing, strategizing, standardizing, and optimizing operations. It ensures you can orchestrate your business's components towards your ultimate goal—profitable outcomes.

One of the remarkable features of our operating system is its readiness for AI integration. As technology advances and AI becomes increasingly essential in business operations, our operating system is future-proof. It structures your business data, making it easy to integrate with AI technologies such as OpenAI's GPT or other bot systems through a simple API.

By using our operating system, businesses can centralize their operations, making them more efficient, streamlined, and ready to evolve with future technological developments.

How to Access the Simple Profits Operating System

Our primary goal is for you to become a client of Simple Profits or a portfolio company of Bootstrapper Capital under one of our SAFERR agreements. However, we understand that businesses need access to tools that propel them towards growth and success. Therefore, we have decided to provide access to our operating system for free after attending our business valuation workshop.

The Business Valuation Workshop

The workshop is a hands-on experience where you get to assess your business and learn how to build wedge equity. You will also use one of the databases in our operating system, the due diligence checklist, to evaluate your business. This interactive experience aims to provide real-time understanding and application of our operating system.

After the workshop, you can opt for an official business valuation and a transformation plan. For this, you need to share your operating system's link with your broker or advisor. They will help you develop a valuation and a transformation plan, allowing you to visualize how you can transform your business and build wedge equity using our operating system.

The Engagement Terms and How We Operate

Our Simple Profits advisory employs a community-driven approach. We focus on offering services that are cost-effective, extremely valuable, and scalable. Our business model is a "buy now, pay later" one, where we take a variable percentage of your revenue over time. This way, our profits are directly linked to your success. If you don't make money, we don't get paid. This business model aligns our interests and allows us to better understand your business, thereby providing the most suitable assistance.

Our engagement allows us to get a deeper understanding of your business. This knowledge can lead to potential assistance in various forms, such as strategic investment, an acquisition offer, or finding a strategic buyer. We are about forming partnerships and building long-term relationships that contribute to mutual success.

How to Get Started

To kick-start your journey, attend one of our business valuation workshops. Details about how to do this are available in the ISO boot camp section. Find the workshop that best suits your schedule in the community events section, register, and attend. At the workshop, you'll get firsthand experience with our resources and begin your journey towards profitable outcomes.

In Conclusion

We truly believe that our offer provides a tremendous amount of value. While other firms might charge significant fees for similar services, we aim to align our interests with yours. The opportunity is available as of now. However, we encourage you to act quickly as these offers are subject to change.

Our ultimate goal is to form long-term partnerships that result in mutual success. We believe in working together to achieve profitable outcomes for all parties involved. With the Simple Profits Operating System, we aim to provide businesses with the tools they need to succeed in today's competitive environment and beyond.

Posted in Say Hello!

My name is Kirby Langley and I live in Charlotte, NC. I’ve spent most of my professional career working in SaaS startups. I’m currently a Sales Director of a brand new startup called Sellular.com. And while I do enjoy my current role, I hope this is my last W2 position. As Chris mentioned in his intro video, I’m very interested in learning how to buy and build businesses to replace my income. My business partner Josh Thompson invited me to join this group. I’m here to learn…and hopefully, add value where I can. Excited to dive in!
