Upside/Downside - Grow Your Profits and Cash Flow
Poor profits and cash flow got you down?
My name is Matt Cooley and value creation has always been central to my career, from start-ups to multi-billion-dollar product lines. As a finance executive at successful companies, I've noticed a thing or two about what creates versus destroys value. In this podcast, we explore value creation and share a few laughs on the way to higher profits and cash flow.
Check out my website at www.upsidedownsidepodcast.com where you can share your email for my FREE one-pager: "10 places to look for higher profits and cash flow right now!"
I wish you the best on your value creation journey!
