Why did you create The Budgeting System?


2020 was supposed to be my year 


I had multiple speaking engagements and conference talks lined up. 

I was planning to travel to England, Amsterdam, Kansas City, and more. 

But as the Pandemic began I got call after call, email after email. My paid talks weren’t going to happen. They'd been canceled. 

I remember looking at my bank account and wondering… 

what am I going to do now? 

I looked at my credit card statements and thought…

I’m boned. 

I went into the bathroom of the 4-person apartment I was sharing in NYC, locked the door, and cried. 

In my despair, I honestly reflected on what had gone wrong for me. 

How much did I owe? 

How much money would I make this year? 

Why did it seem like I was making money but never had any to spend? 


I didn’t know my numbers


I didn’t know much business I had lost. 

I didn’t know how much I would need to make up. I didn’t even know how much to pay myself. 

Then and there I made a commitment to myself. Enough was enough. 

I was going to master my numbers. 

So I poured over the best knowledge on managing finances. I read the latest books and tested different systems. 

By the end of 2020, I was managing my money simply and easily. I was on a path to pay off debt. 

And for the first time, my business was paying me! Just for running it.


Fast forward to 2022... 


I’ve been able to:

  • Pay off my students loans ($6000)

  • Pay off my credit cards ($25000)

  • Get a new apartment in NYC with an office ($1800/m = $21600)

  • Move to Lisbon, Portugal to become a digital nomad ($8000)

  • Save money for the future ($10000)


Over the last two years, the value of this system for me has been $70,600+! 


Keep in mind, that number doesn’t even include: 

  • Additional high-ticket contracts I landed because everything was running so smoothly

  • Peace of mind knowing my rent is paid each month 

  • Tax credits and write-offs I now know I qualify for


I’ve been perfecting The Budgeting System for the last 2 years. 


In fact, I still use it to run my business. 

And here’s the truth.

Back in 2020, I was just like every other so-called entrepreneur in New York City. 

I was always scraping by, worrying about how I was going to afford to live. 

The Budgeting System changed that entirely. 

My peers asked what had changed. How could I suddenly afford NYC? 

Since then... I decided that there are just too many struggling entrepreneurs. 

I should know–I was one of them!

That’s why I decided to release The Budgeting System at a very low price. 

So that everyone in my network can get access.


Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this for?

The Budgeting System is for anyone who is currently running a business or planning to start one soon. For the former, The Budgeting System will help you track and manage your funds while also becoming instantly profitable. If you're just starting your business, this is a great time to get it right from the beginning. This system will help you plan for and avoid the mistakes many entrepreneurs already make currently selling products but not managing their cash.


I'm too small to worry about this - shouldn't I wait until I make more money?

This type of thinking is a trap. If you don't have clear insight into your finances,  it will be hard to make and save enough money to even become big. In truth, this system creates a path for your to make money right away! Compare this to looking at your bank account each month and hoping it's enough to get you by. 


Did you invent this system?

This system was inspired by several others. I synthesized the best ideas into one system for my business. However, an important book along this journey was Profit First. Profit First creates clear guidelines for how much to allocate across your business using research. You do not need to read this book to understand The Budgeting System. 


But who actually tracks their finances like this?

Many successful entrepreneurs. In fact, a version of this system is used by both trainers I've worked with, my accountant, my assistant, and several other eCommerce business owners in my network.  I've made this system specifically for data people. Because I know how we think. 


How hard is this to implement? 

It's not hard at all. The main part of it is an Excel spreadsheet that can be used on your Desktop, on the Web, or in Google Sheets.  I would plan to spend up to two hours a month updating the spreadsheet.  In fact, you really only need to update the spreadsheet twice a month. You will spend at most an hour at a time, but likely less as you get into a rhythm. 


I already have QuickBooks or Xero - why do I need this?

Does it ever feel like these products are just too much for what you're doing? Leave these tools for your accountant.  

As a business owner, you must know exactly where your money goes which means going through your transactions each month. Use this sheet to direct your accountant to how you plan to run your business in the future. And leave it to them to make sure you have filings and such in place.


Can I give this to my accountant or assistant to complete? 

Eventually, you can. But starting out, you must first master it yourself for a few months. Once you get the hang of it, you can automate the entire process by handing it off. 


My business is complicated - can you add additional features? 

If you're reading this, it means you need help. Your business operations may be complicated, but not so complicated that you need to start adding fancy stuff right away. Each year, I plan to make incremental improvements. You're welcome to provide me with direct feedback about what you'd like. But before hiring a developer to create additional doodads, I would advise that you use the system for a year first.
