STOP DISCOUNTING YOUR WINNERS | Why Revenue Is the Wrong Number | Profit Peak | Carla Penn Kahn
<p><br>How Does Your Brand Stack Up? Download our FREE eCommerce Hidden Profit Audit Template here: https://www.futurereadycfo.com/hidden-profit-audit-free-template</p><p>Carla Penn-Kahn is the co-founder and CEO of Profit Peak, an operating platform that gives eCommerce brands real-time visibility across advertising spend, inventory, and contribution margin. In this episode, Carla shares research conducted alongside James Hurman and Klaviyo showing that brands that discount most frequently grow the slowest — and reveals that 68% of discount orders go to existing customers who would have bought at full price anyway. She and Nate dig into inventory segmentation as a smarter alternative to blanket discounting, the marketing and operations disconnect that keeps most teams flying blind, and what agentic<br>commerce means for eCommerce margins over the next two to three years. If you have ever pulled a discount to hit a monthly revenue number and wondered whether it actually worked, this episode has the data to answer that question.</p><p>Connect with Carla here:<br>LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carla-penn-kahn-0384b0a/<br>Website: https://profitpeak.io</p><p>I hope you enjoyed this episode!

The Sales Tax Time Bomb Sitting in Your eCommerce Books | TaxHero | Lahari Neelapareddy
<p>Since a 2018 Supreme Court ruling, online sellers can owe sales tax in any US state where they cross a revenue threshold — even without a physical presence. Most eCommerce founders either don't know their exposure exists or assume they're too small to be a target. In this episode, Nate sits down with Lahari Neelapareddy, CPA and Founder of TaxHero, to break down what's actually happening with sales tax enforcement right now. They cover what a real audit looks like, why even well-resourced compliance tools can get this wrong, and the four questions every founder should be asking themselves today. For a free sales tax compliance assessment, mention Profits on Purpose when you book at taxhero.net.</p><p>I hope you enjoyed this episode!<br> Give it a like, share, and subscribe to not miss the content coming your way weekly.<br> – Nate and the Profits on Purpose podcast team</p><p>Connect with Nathan Littlewood on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanlittlewood/<br>Visit the Future Ready CFO website here: https://www.futurereadycfo.com/<br>Join the Future Ready Newsletter here: https://www.futurereadycfo.com/newsletter</p><p>Listen to Profits on Purpose on these podcast platforms: <br>Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1h3U1cG0zhaSwqa8f2UFXI<br>Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/profits-on-purpose/id1826982087<br>Amazon Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/profits-on-purpose/id1826982087</p><p>#profitsonpurpose #nathanlittlewood #futurereadycfo #financeleadership #cfoinsights #purposeledbusiness #scalingforimpact #financialstrategy #purposeledprofit #missiondrivengrowth #sustainablebusiness #businessleaders #entrepreneurmindset #financialclarity #scalingbusinesses #ethicalentrepreneurship #businessstrategy #impactfulleadership #cforole #executivethinking<br>Welcome to the Profits on Purpose podcast, where we explore the journeys of purpose-led founders and the financial strategies that help them survive and thrive.

<p>How Does Your Brand Stack Up? Download our FREE eCommerce Hidden Profit Audit Template here: https://www.futurereadycfo.com/hidden-profit-audit-free-template</p><p>Charles Brun co-founded IZIPIZI in 2010 with two friends from high school, no capital, and no formal business background. Sixteen years later the brand is in 80 countries, employs 250 people, and is B Corp certified — and Charles is asking the question that most mission-led founders are afraid to answer honestly: is any of this actually worth it? In this episode, Nate and Charles get into the real cost of B Corp certification, what a carbon footprint accounting exercise actually involves, why the ROI of purpose-led credentials looks completely different in the US versus Europe, and what it has actually taken to stay profitable and bootstrapped across a 16-year journey. If you have ever wondered whether doing the right thing makes financial sense, this episode is the most honest answer you will find.</p><p>I hope you enjoyed this episode!<br> Give it a like, share, and subscribe to not miss the content coming your way weekly.<br> – Nate and the Profits on Purpose podcast team</p><p>Connect with Nathan Littlewood on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanlittlewood/<br>Visit the Future Ready CFO website here: https://www.futurereadycfo.com/<br>Join the Future Ready Newsletter here: https://www.futurereadycfo.com/newsletter</p><p>Listen to Profits on Purpose on these podcast platforms: <br>Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1h3U1cG0zhaSwqa8f2UFXI<br>Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/profits-on-purpose/id1826982087<br>Amazon Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/profits-on-purpose/id1826982087</p><p>#profitsonpurpose #nathanlittlewood #futurereadycfo #financeleadership #cfoinsights #purposeledbusiness #scalingforimpact #financialstrategy #purposeledprofit #missiondrivengrowth #sustainablebusiness #businessleaders #entrepreneurmindset #financialclarity #scalingbusinesses #ethicalentrepreneurship #businessstrategy #impactfulleadership #cforole #executivethinking<br>Welcome to the Profits on Purpose podcast, where we explore the journeys of purpose-led founders and the financial strategies that help them survive and thrive.
