The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex

Why Most Entrepreneurs Don’t Know Their Numbers

Friday, August 22, 2025

💰 Revenue looks sexy on social media—but it doesn’t mean you’re profitable.

In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex exposes one of the biggest reasons businesses fail: not knowing their numbers. From mistaking revenue for profit, to ignoring cash flow, to running a business on guesses instead of data, Paul breaks down why financial awareness is the difference between scaling up and crashing down.

If you’re an entrepreneur who wants to build a business that lasts, this episode will help you shift from guessing to tracking, and from flexing to winning.

🔑 Key takeaways:

  • Why revenue ≠ profit (and how to avoid the trap)

  • The #1 financial metric that keeps businesses alive: cash flow

  • How ignoring expenses can turn “six figures” into zero profit

  • Why data-driven decisions beat emotional ones every time

  • Simple habits to track your numbers daily, weekly, and monthly

The truth is simple: if you don’t know your numbers, you don’t know your business.

🎯 Stop flying blind. Start tracking, scaling, and winning.
