Profit First: How to Transform Your Business from a Cash-Eating Monster to a Money-Making Machine
Mike Michalowicz, Author and Entrepreneur
Learn how to channel your normal entrepreneurial behaviors to drive profitability. Mike is the entrepreneur behind three multimillion-dollar companies and the author of Profit First, a game-changing method that can transform your business from a cash-eating monster to a money-making machine. As a business grows, it often faces the dilemma of expenses increasing at the same rate as sales. This can make profit seem elusive. While most business teachings will tell you the solution is to change your habits, Mike believes that’s unrealistic. Instead, Profit First focuses on changing the structure around you so you can channel any former “bad habits” into your biggest ally. If you employ the system and keep doing what you’ve always done, you will start driving profits 24 hours after the JUNKCON™ presentation.
Attendees will receive a free copy of Mike’s book Profit First and can have it signed by him immediately after his presentation.

JUNKCON ™ ’21 Highlights
Last year, Junk Removal Authority hosted the first-ever JUNKCON ™. The one-of-a-kind event received an enormous response and had to be moved from its original location at JRA Headquarters to an event space in Raleigh. With just two months of planning, the inaugural conference brought more than 130 junk removal business owners, team members, and industry experts together for two days of learning and networking. We are thrilled to be able to expand the event this year to a much larger audience and with more speakers, educational topics, and exhibitors.
❝ It’s hard to pinpoint everything I’ve learned. I’ve taken in so much information. The opportunity to exchange ideas with the other business owners, and the advice we’ve gotten from the speakers … those things are going to stick with me. I’m eager to learn more. ❞
