About the guest:

Rick’s entrepreneurial journey started in high school when he and a friend started a DJ company. Dedicated to a vision of creating the most exciting and energetic experiences, the business quickly found successes that extended far beyond the local Detroit market. Fast forward a few decades and this multi-state, award winning company provided event planning, entertainment, and AV production services for national corporate, social and educational clients.

After a successful sale and exit of the business in 2018, Rick has been a teacher, a coach, and a business consultant. His superpower is his energy and passion for learning and growth, always challenging the existing status quo to find better solutions. He personally understands and experienced the power of EOS and how it offers freedom for entrepreneurs to break through their ceiling, clarify and achieve their vision, while improving the lives of leadership teams, employees and their families.

Rick has been married since 2012, and has two amazing step daughters. He is also a dog dad to Luna. His goal is to make the world a better place one interaction at a time.

About the guest, in her own words:

Stephanie Smith is a CFO and a business owner. She uses her financial background to help business owners take the one clear path to generating more cash in their business.

Being in the financial world, she can look at a business and spot the underlying reasons why it is not profitable and has poor cash flow. And... more importantly, she knows how to fix it.

Because of her love for numbers, Stephanie received her undergraduate degree in Mathematics. She had a short lived sprint as a high school math teacher and quickly ended up in the corporate world as an instructional designer.

After years in corporate, Stephanie knew she was meant to be an entrepreneur. That is when Stephanie and her husband, Kris, started a company to help business owners get better connected to their financials.

What they learned was that their clients needed more than just financials that are up-to-date; they needed a way to make good business decisions, backed by data, that would help them grow and be more profitable (and is presented in a way that is simple and easy to understand).

Given her unique background, Stephanie is skilled at taking complex concepts, simplifying them, and teaching them to other people. Her mission is to use their simple 6-step process to help other business owners better understand what is working in their business, and what is not working, helping them gain the freedom (and profitability) they deserve.
