What is inside

  • Read the statements: the P&L, the three margins, fixed and variable costs
  • Know where you break even: contribution margin and the break-even point
  • Cash is not profit: cash versus profit and the cash conversion cycle
  • Is the customer worth it: unit economics, CAC and LTV
  • Is the project worth it: ROI, the payback period, net present value
  • Make the case: markup versus margin, sensitivity analysis, budget versus actual, the one-page business case

Questions

I am not good with numbers. Is it for me?

That is who it is written for. Every tool starts from the question you are asked in the meeting, shows the formula once, and works through an example where every number adds up.

Do I need Frameworks on One Page?

No, it stands on its own. Same two-page format, applied to money.

Is this financial advice?

No. It is educational material on reading and presenting business numbers. For accounting, tax or investment decisions, talk to a qualified professional.
