You use Xero. You kinda get P&Ls (but you need to know more). You might even have a bookkeeper. So, why are you still being haunted by statements?

Your business is running, but you’re a little unsure about how it’s running.

Between the income generating tasks and all of those emails, there’s only so much time for finance stuff.

But instead of reviewing your P&Ls, you file them away for a rainy day, saying you’ll get back to them (spoiler: you won’t).

And it’s gone on far too long for you to ask your accountant about it.

So, you don’t.

I’ve seen SO many business owners in this predicament who don’t know where they stand, or worse; they don’t understand the magic to be found within their P&Ls (read: hidden profit with a capital P).

I’m getting an overwhelming sense that


 
You're in the dark about your financial position.

Hi, I’m Lucy Starbuck, and I give a f*ck about your finances. 

I’m a Brit-Aussie, doting dog mum to cocker spaniel, Buddy, oh, and a chartered accountant by trade. 

I spend my days bringing flavour and fun to the dry world of finance across businesses both big (BIG4, big) and small. Over 15 years, climbing my way up the slippery corporate ladder, I’ve noticed that financial literacy is the not-so-secret potion for success.

Climbing my way up the slippery corporate ladder for the past 15 years, I’ve noticed a few things.

Firstly, that folks mostly avoid their finances because it’s intimidating, infuriating, and isn’t as accessible as it bloody should be.

Magic By Numbers is here to help demystify your money by channelling some feeling and fun back into it all.

Join me in making numbers more palatable for the masses and conjuring sweet profit spells in the process. đŸȘ„

Wait, what’s so *different* about this P&L program?


Well, for starters, I’m running the show and I’ve brought a tried and true approach to help you master your money.

Consider me your David Copperfield or your David Blaine (side note: why so many David’s?!), only less woo-woo, more wise.

I’ve developed course content that weaves financial know-how with human psychology to create strategies that work with your personal preferences around managing money.

To help you absorb the program, it’s delivered over 5 live sessions with a dedicated Q&A at the end.

Unlike accounting snooze fests, it’s actually interactive and informative; designed to educate and entertain.

Check out what's included;

  • 5 x Live Q&A sessions via Zoom where I will answer all of your questions!
  • A community group to share and connect with other members in the course.
  • Workbooks and materials to support you during the course.

Our Magical Modules

MODULE 1:

SET THE SCENE

STRATEGY & P&L

Let's kick things off by setting the stage. Discover the essence of P&Ls and why they're the compass for your business success. I'll share live success stories, dissect big corporations' strategies, and weave the importance of your unique strategy throughout the course.

MODULE 2:

REVENUE

MONEY MAGIC

Dive into the dance of revenue, distinguishing between recurring and non-recurring income. Learn why "get" isn't always your money, unravel the mysteries of categorization, and explore the nuances between cash and accrual accounting. Plus, gain insights into pricing strategies and boosting your self-worth.

MODULE 3:

GROSS PROFIT

FIRST LINE OF DEFENCE

Explore the world of gross profit, your first line of defense in the P&L realm. Understand the difference between direct and indirect costs, witness examples of good and bad financial behavior, and set your sights on the coveted gross profit target.

MODULE 4:

OPERATING COSTS 

BECOME A WIZZARD

Here, we delve into the realm of operating costs. Brace yourself for tough spending decisions. I'll guide you through distinguishing between essential and non-priority expenses, empowering you to act like the financial wizzard your business needs.

MODULE 5:

CASH FLOW & Q&A

In our grand finale, we unravel the mysteries of cash flow while addressing your burning questions. Understand the crucial disparity between profit and cash flow, and learn how to avoid pitfalls that many encounter. It's a cash flow celebration intertwined with insightful Q&A.

The Alternative?

Sure. You could carry on about your business and stay exactly where you are; fearing your finances, praying that debt – or the tax man – doesn’t catch you off-guard in a very expensive game of hide and seek.


And what might this cost you?

đŸȘ„ Sleepless nights conjuring tax-debt payment plans.

đŸȘ„ Human hours with an accountant to exorcise cursed P&Ls.

đŸȘ„ Hundreds of dollars disappearing from your bottom line, from careless financial mistakes and bad investments.

đŸȘ„ Thousands lost in potential profits because of limiting money mindsets.

 

Or you could invest in your financial wellbeing once and for all, completely reframing your mindset around money, transforming what you earn, and banishing financial nightmares for good. Sounds dreamy, right?

"Before "Magic By Numbers," my business finances were like a puzzle missing some key pieces. Even with Xero and a bookkeeper, I kept hiding from my statements, promising myself I'd tackle them later (which rarely happened). Lucy's course changed the game.

Lucy made P&Ls less of a mystery and more like a friendly conversation. No more dodging the numbers – now I've got savvy financial wisdom. I navigate my money confidently, spotting hidden profits that used to sneak away.

Lucy's approach is fun and no-nonsense. I now see numbers without stress and understand the bigger money picture. “Magic By Numbers" is more than a course; it's a roadmap to a calm and confident financial journey.

Feeling lost in the financial maze? Lucy's course is course is pure magic. No tricks, just straightforward steps to a brighter financial future. Thanks for everything, Lucy!"
