What’s your CEO salary? 

You might think that, as the owner of the business, you are just stuck paying yourself whatever you can with whatever’s left from your revenue. You might not be thinking about a salary at all.

If that’s where you are, you’re not alone. 

(Today starting NOW and tomorrow at 12pm ET, I’ll be on Instagram live talking about this exact topic — watch me here.)

So many of the business owners I’ve worked with tell me they’re not sure what they can safely and consistently pay themselves, or they’re making way less than they want to or what they could make in corporate.

If you run a business that is making money, you deserve to pay yourself a living wage. And yes, even a real salary.

The question is… how much should that be? 

How do you determine the number and, more importantly, how do you make sure you have enough positive cash flow to maintain your salary?

It’s all about creating money management systems that make high income possible, even-higher cash flow the norm, and shorter work days a constant. (So you can get off the frustrating 6-figure hamster wheel — more on that on today’s live training.)

In fact, that methodology is exactly what I teach you when you join the Cash Flow CEO Accelerator, and the waitlist is currently open!

$100k in revenue doesn’t feel like enough because… it isn’t. 

This isn’t a “you” problem. We are all hearing “just make six figures and you’ll be set” but that just flat out isn’t true. 

The goal may not even be $200k or $300k. 

Yes, 6 figures in revenue is great. 

But that revenue means nothing if your SALARY or take-home pay is still not enough — whether you are paying yourself $0, $5,000, or something else per month.

If you’ve been working your butt off, way more than you want to (like even putting in nights, weekends, or 12-hour days), and watching your revenue soar but still not reaching your personal income goals… then just making even more money in the business won’t fix that.

Instead, let’s turn our sights toward a new goal.

A $100k SALARY PAID TO YOU. 

That means that your revenue is high enough you’re able to comfortably pay yourself a minimum of $100k per year. Sounds amazing, right?

Can I give you some real (and a little bit blunt) advice?

Your offers need to change as your business changes. 

I think of it like clothes. Our bodies change as we get older, have kids, exercise (or not!) regimens, or go through health challenges.

We can’t always wear the clothes we used to wear — and honestly, they don’t feel as good as clothes that fit our bodies as they are now.

The same goes for your offers.

Yes, even if that specific package or service got you to your first $100k year. 2022, and especially 2023, are nothing like 2020 and 2021. 

In 2021, we were still in the middle of a pandemic. Many of us saw heavy growth in the education space since March 2020 and throughout 2021, but are starting to struggle to keep that growth up through 2022. Now, the economy is right-sizing and our businesses are correcting from the big boom that so many of us saw in recent years.

But you can continue your exponential growth during this time if you know how to structure your offers properly. (Think of it like this: If you find offers that match the real current needs of your to-be clients.) 

The most important thing is having offers that match where you want to go or how you want to grow. We can outgrow our offers — and the offers that help us get to $100k (mainly customized, 1:1 services) don’t work to get to $300-500k+.
