Introducing The Profit Co-Pilot — Profit First help on demand
|
|
What it is, why it matters
The Profit Co-Pilot is a specialized chat assistant you can open in your browser. You type a question, it responds with practical guidance. It is built inside ChatGPT, and it is free to use.
I invested significant time training this Co-Pilot with my playbooks, decision rules, prompts, and examples so it thinks and responds the way I do. Ask it how to set up Profit First, how to choose target percentages, how to handle seasonality, or how to apply the Pumpkin Plan to grow. You will get an answer that mirrors my approach, clear, direct, and actionable, without waiting for an email reply.
Use it when you need a second brain, a quick check, or a step-by-step plan. It is available any time, it is designed for small business owners, and it keeps you moving toward permanent profitability.

- Ask one focused question. It will return a clear next step and why it matters.
- Act on one step today, then paste results back in to refine your plan.
