The USPS recently announced a slow down in delivery speed and a temporary increase in shipping rates for the holiday season. Likewise, Fedex and UPS both raised their prices in 2021.

So, what can you do as a business owner to ensure that you’ve got a shipping offer that is both enticing to your potential customers AND protects your financial sustainability?

Here are 4 Steps For Creating a Profitable
Shipping Offer:

1. Know the Cost to Ship Your Product(s) -- Both individually and in any popular bundles or combinations.

• If your products fit into a Flat Rate shipping box or envelope your shipping costs are pretty easy to determine

• If your products don’t fit into a Flat Rate box your Shipping costs will be based on the size/weight of the package and how far you are shipping it.
  
  Each carrier uses a “Shipping Zone” system for calculating the costs for domestic shipping - if you aren't sure what it costs to ship your package we’ve got a roundup of USPS, Fedex and UPS resources as well as a really great calculator from ShipStation to help you understand how the “Shipping Zone” system works, and to find your max shipping rates based on where your business is located. Click here to access the shipping cost resources.

  Knowing this information will help ensure that you’re factoring the RIGHT shipping cost into your shipping offer.
  

2. Know Your Margins

Know and use your margins as a guideline to determine how much you can afford to spend or contribute to the cost of shipping without hurting profitability. For example, do you have 5% of online sales revenue to contribute to your shipping costs or are your margins tight at this phase of your business and you need your customer to cover the cost of shipping entirely?

Knowing your overall business margins, as well as your margins for your online sales channel and EACH of the online platforms you utilize can help ensure that you’re selecting the right offer for each site.

You DON’T have to have a consistent shipping offer across all online platforms!

3. Consider the Shipping Offers that could be well-suited for your business financially, and offer benefits to your customers:

You may offer…

• Free Shipping on ALL Products , and work all or some of the cost of shipping into your product price.

• Flat Rate Rate for ALL Shipments (even if you don’t use a flat rate box) - this means that you and your customers share the cost of shipping - but remember to check your margins and only contribute what makes sense for your business.

• Free Shipping Only When Customers Spend a Certain Amount of Money

• Free Shipping Only when a set minimum number of items is purchased

• You may not have an offer - you may charge for shipping based on actual costs and pass any business discounts on to your customers
  

4. Know your Customer

Online data and research is conducted across all retail categories and customers of mission-driven food and beverage businesses tend to have different values than the general population.

So while knowing that, in general, the majority of online shoppers expect free shipping, learning more about your customers values is an important element to determine IF a free shipping offer would indeed have a positive impact on sales, or IF charging for shipping is deterring people from purchasing your product.

This may not be something that you can ASK your audience, but we’ve seen a lot of success with testing -- for example, a seasoning blend company based in Oregon recently did A/B Testing to see how customers responded to lower product price with a fee for shipping vs. a higher product price and no shipping fee. They tracked consumer behavior on the website, the number of abandoned carts and at what point in the process the cart was abandoned to determine the best shipping offer option for their audience.

Profit First is a Cash flow Management System that supports prioritizing Financial Sustainability and getting business owners paid.

It’s a tool for helping you to implement a financial strategy that will lead to financial sustainability and profitability. And I am a proponent of the strategy because it has proven to be a valuable extension to the work that I do with my clients and program members. 

BUT Profit First will NOT make you financially sustainable and operating as a cash-based business overnight.

There are 4 Steps to Implementing Profit First in Your Food Business:

1. Understand where your business is financially right now

2. Identify WHERE you want to be, and by when (your financial goals)

3. Create a Plan for achieving those goals

4. Then, begin implementing Profit First cash flow strategies to assist in becoming financially sustainable, profitable, and eventually Cash-based.

Let's dig into each.

STEP 1 - Understand where your business is financially right now. We do this through a Profit Assessment

Profit First offers a Profit Assessment structure, but for Food Businesses it will look a bit different.

They refer to a category called Materials & Subs -- stands for Materials and Sub--contractors, and the items that are included in Materials must equate to 25% or more of real revenue.

For Food Businesses we eliminate “Materials & Subs” and utilize COGS - Specifically your Ingredients & Packings, Labor or Co-packing Costs AND all other COGS -- we want to see every penny that you are spending to produce and deliver your product / service to your customer. And that includes Merchant Fees, Sellers Fees, Market Fees, Shipping Costs, etc.

These costs are variable and affected by how much product you produce and sell, so we want to get VERY clear on what they are.

We also look at your Operating Expenses, current Owner’s Pay, Business Tax Savings and Profit to get a clear picture of you Business Profitability, not just your operational profitability.

The Assessment helps you to see your business finances in a whole new way, and identify what’s working, what’s not, and exactly where to focus your attention to improve your financial outcomes.

STEP 2 - Get Clear on Your Financial Goals, or what we call Your Financial Success Formula

What COGS% is going to help you maximize your Gross Profits, or as they call it in the Book your “Real Revenue”

And what % of your real revenue do you want to be able to set aside as Profit?

What Owners Pay % will help you reach your salary goal

What Tax Savings % will cover your quarterly or annual tax payments?

And What Operating Cost % is going to help you achieve financial sustainability?

These are your TARGETS. When you’re clear on your targets you can create a plan for getting there from where you are right now.

Step 3 - Create Your Roll-out Plan for Achieving these goals.

Financial sustainability comes by making incremental, meaningful changes to reach your targets in the time-frame that is right for you.

What is that time-frame? Is this an emergency financial situation?

Do you have some time to make these changes? Once you identify the time-frame you can see how your targets will change between now and then.

For example, if you are not currently paying yourself, your current allocation is 0% to Owners Pay - Your goal may be 40% of Real Revenue in 12 months. They might break down into 10% allocation increase each quarter from now until the end of the year to reach your goal.

So at the end of quarter one you’re allocating 10% to Owners Pay, at the end of Quarter 2 you’re allocating a total of 20% of Real Revenue to Owner’s Pay and so on…

Step 4 - Identifying the Strategies to Reach Your Goals

You want to take Implementation Step-by-Step based on where you can make the most financial impact, and remember it’s VERY RARE that the answer to your financial problems is ONLY to SELL MORE. You may need to increase sales but what can you do INSIDE your business - the things you have control over - to improve your financial situation?

Inside our Profit Assessment Online Course we’ve got a Roll-out Calculator And Strategy Finder to help you do this work.

When your Roll-out Plan is created, your key strategies are identified it’s time to Open Your Profit First Bank Accounts & Make Your Allocations

Something I hear from food business owners is that they feel like they need to pay off their credit card bills in full every month, even if doing so is going to result in not having enough cash in the business to pay for operations… requiring them to continue using the credit card… eventually paying off all or a big chunk of the debt, and then being low on cash and having to rely on the card again.

We call this the DEBT CYCLE.

So what can you do to prevent this cycle and begin moving toward becoming a cash-based business?

Release the need to pay off your credit card(s) immediately, and Create a Plan.

Get clear on where you are financially right now, what is realistic in terms of servicing or paying down your debt, and create a plan to first stop utilizing the credit card for business purchases, and then for paying down the debit within a stated time frame.

Here are a few tips:

DETERMINE IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO COVER YOUR MONTHLY DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS

We're talking about JUST the minimum payments you must make to keep your account(s) current.

Total them up and subtract the amount from your average monthly Income - is the amount of income remaining enough cash for you to cover your average monthly expenses?

If the answer is YES - make the monthly minimum payments and begin operating your business on a cash basis - not utilizing the credit card any further for the time being.

The Profit First strategy can be really helpful here - encouraging you to allocate or set aside a set percentage of your Income to Debt Service each month. The allocation should cover your minimum payments in your slow months, and then during your higher sales months will cover the minimum payment and then some, helping you to pay DOWN the debt - not just service it. This is the strategy that I use and recommend for my clients.

If the answer is NO, you DON’T have enough cash left to cover your operating expenses - you’ve got to identify where you can cut costs immediately, and then where you can create efficiencies to reduce costs further.

YES - growing sales can help, but that is an external factor and before focusing on that, it’s important to be sure the internal factors that you CAN control are taken care of.

Here are the STEPS TO REDUCE SPENDING SO YOU CAN COVER YOUR MONTHLY DEBT PAYMENTS:

1. Identify What you DON’T NEED to operate successfully and eliminate the expense.
   Music subscriptions, subscriptions to tools or services you don’t use, memberships, etc.

2. Review your subscriptions and the service level for each.
   Where are you paying for more than you need or more than you’re actually utilizing? Lower your subscription level to cut costs. I usually review this quarterly as so much can change in just 3 months!

3. Take a deeper dive into your business and identify WHERE you may focus your attention to improve physical and financial efficiencies.
   

I talk a lot about the Profit Assessment because it is a GREAT tool for seeing your business finances in a new light and determining what area of your business is not working FOR YOU.

For example, your COGS may be high and limiting the amount of cash you have in your business. Maybe your Gross Profit aka Real Revenue is great, but your Labor Costs are high -- this is insightful information to help you take action and become more financially sustainable.

Financial sustainability doesn’t happen overnight, but with consistent action in the right parts of your business you’ll get there.
And when you’ve got the trifecta -- controlled costs, financial efficiency AND growing sales, you are surely on your way to operational profitability, business profitability and paying down your debt!

Lastly, for those of you implementing Profit First in Your Food Business, Each quarter take 99% of the funds in your Profit Account and use it to pay down your debt. That last 1% is for you! No matter what it amounts to, enjoy it!

When your debt is paid off, the profit account goes from being a debt-busting tool to a the source of your quarterly dividend.

The goal of profit first is NOT to cut costs simply for the sake of profits - the goal is to build a financially sustainable business.

cutting costs abruptly can negatively affect your product quality, customer service, and employee attitudes.

By implementing Profit First in your food business, you can reduce costs in a way that will positively impact your business, and in this video I’m sharing the steps for doing so.

Can I Still Use Credit Cards, Loans and Investment if I implement Profit First?

Yes! IF you are someone who loves credit card points and wants to pay operating costs with your card and pay it off every month, do it!

If you’ve built a financially efficient business and can see exactly where and how investment or loan money will help you grow top and bottom line numbers do it!

Again, Profit First is a framework and a cash management strategy.  When you Know Your Numbers and are informed about the financial decisions that you are making, you can do whatever you think is right for you and your business.

What I don’t recommend is seeking a loan, line of credit or funding for a business that is NOT set up for financial sustainability - where you don’t know the exact impact and outcomes of utilizing those funds or how you’ll pay them back.

Should I grow first, THEN focus on Financial Sustainability and Profitability?

The simple answer is NO.

You’ve got to build a financially sustainable business from the INSIDE, and once that’s done growing sales WILL produce more profits -- but if you haven’t yet done that work, MORE SALES can equal BIGGER Losses. 

I saw this happen in my own food business, and it’s often the catalyst for people reaching out to me for Consulting + Coaching Services.  

The most extreme example I’ve seen first hand was a business that did a Facebook Promotion and her online sales soared to over $50,000 in a single month.  That same month she experienced over $30,000 in LOSSES because her business was not structured to support those sales and she hadn’t done the work to understand what shipping offer and discount level would work for her business.  

I see less extreme versions of this all of the time, where businesses are slowly and steadily growing revenue, but their profits are stagnant, or declining — I share a few examples in the Profit Assessment Online Course.

I want business owners to stop believing that losing money is “how it is” when you’re a young business and that more sales will solve the problem.

Taking the steps to understand your financials, set the right goals for your business, and implementing Profit First strategies, if it’s a good fit for your business, will help you become financially efficient and ensure that as your sales grow your profits do too.

Focusing on profits within your food business is vital and not just because you’re a business, but because you’re a Good Food Business.

I know that some of you reading this might be thinking, or saying out loud, “We’re a mission-driven business, we’re not focused on Profit!”

I hear you, I felt the same way when I owned my food business.  But here’s the deal, if you want to achieve the mission of your business long-term you have GOT to be financially sustainable and profitable. 

Profits are the funds that you’ll use to invest in growth, efficiencies and other improvements. Maybe you’ll use profit funds to develop the new product you’ve been dreaming of.  Or perhaps it’s your goal to donate a portion of your profits to a charity.  Maybe you’ll celebrate with that money, or maybe you’ll do what I do and do a little bit of all of it, PLUS take a share for yourself and offer a profit-share with your employees. 

You started a business to do good, create change, earn a living doing something you love... No matter what your WHY is, Financial Sustainability and Profitability ensures that it becomes and remains a reality.

Do not be ashamed of profitability, do not be ashamed of wanting to make money.  If you’re struggling with this, if you’re having strong feelings right now, I recommend you go back and listen to The Good Food CFO Podcast Episode 06 with Caroline Snyder of Verdi Advising, I encourage you to read “We Should all Be Millionaires” by Rachel Rodgers  or “You’re a Badass at Making Money” by Jen Sincero, and listen to The Good Food CFO Podcast Episode 20: Profit First:: Will it Work For Your Good Food Business?

These will all help you along the journey of eliminating the guilt and limiting beliefs you have around money and financial success. 

Doing this work is a great gift to yourself and your community.

“Setting your prices to achieve Product Profitability does not guarantee that you’ll achieve Business Profitability.”

If there is one critical concept that I want every food + beverage business owner to know, understand and accept this year, it’s the one I’ve written above. 

I’ve talked about it on The Good Food CFO podcast, The Real Food Brands podcast, The Food Biz Wiz podcast and even on a few webinars like the one I did with WeStock.

We’ve been misled on how best to approach our pricing. 

I got it wrong in my food business...

And when businesses get it wrong they can hit or exceed their sales goals but struggle to achieve profitability and they aren’t sure why.  When the cause goes unresolved or the source of the problem is unidentified, losses start to mount and the result can be the closure of the business.

So how do you ensure that you’re pricing your products for BUSINESS profitability? 

Follow my 3 rules for pricing:

1. Don’t calculate your prices using your per unit labor cost

2. You CAN’T successfully price your products in a vacuum

3. You CAN price your product with a simple formula, and your target ingredient cost %

In a past video post, I’ve talked about the big AH-HA moments, discoveries + breakthroughs that Food biz owners have when they look at their Food Costs as a % of revenue, rather than as a simple dollar amount. 

It’s a small change in HOW you look at your business that can have a BIG impact. 

If that has you wondering...

• Why is my Food Cost PERCENTAGE so important? 

• What Food Cost % should I be aiming for? 

• HOW do I lower my food costs? 

You’re not alone!
Here are the answers to these very common questions.

1. Why is Your Food Cost percentage So important? 

Your Food Cost percentage tells you how much of every revenue dollar gets spent on making and selling your product.  

It should be steady month to month and NOT change based on how much or how little you produce and sell.  

It is a KEY factor in building a financially sustainable and profitable food business. 

2. What Food Cost % Should You Be Aiming for? 

As always, there is no one-size-fits-all answer.  

Finding the Food Cost % that will help you price your products right and create long-term financial sustainability + profitability takes an hour or so to iron out and requires looking at your whole business. I’ll touch on that more on that in a future blog post, BUT here are the basics:

Your Food Cost % + Labor Cost % + Operating Cost % MUST consistently total less than 100% to have a profitable business.  

If it totals 100% or more, even if it only happens some of the time…  You need to set and achieve new, lower cost targets to bring that total down.

What do You need to lower your Food Cost % to, to be profitable or improve profitability?  Start there! 

3. How Do You Lower Your Food Costs? 

The first step is to identify the cause(s) of your high food costs:

• Do you have products that are priced too low?

• Ingredient costs that are too high?

• Is there over-purchasing / inefficient ordering happening in your biz?

Once you’ve identified this, you can get to work fixing it and start seeing financial shifts. 

Remember, your sales are never the cause of high food costs, it’s your job to get and keep your food costs under control.

Not sure what your food cost percentage is? Need some helping understanding the numbers of our business?

Your Financial Reports are meant to summarize your food business financial data and present it to you in a meaningful way.

financial reports should provide value to you, and help you make key strategy + business decisions.

For example, you should easily be able to answer the following just by reviewing your Profit + Loss Statement (aka Income Statement):

• Which line of business is bringing in the most revenue?

• What does it cost to package + ship your online orders?

• What are your total labor costs with taxes, benefits and fees included?

If your Profit + Loss, or Income Statement, isn't providing this type of valuable info about your food business (without having to do side calculations or dig for additional data) you're working with what I call "Basic" financial reports in need of a revamp.

Still not quite sure if your financials are in need of a revamp?

Here are 3 signs that they your food business financials
need a revamp…

#1 - All of your sales are lumped into one line item

Even though you sell online, wholesale and at farmer's markets... if you've got more than one revenue stream you should see individual income data for each of them.

#2 - All of your Cost of Goods Sold are lumped into a single line item

I know you've got more than one COG!

#3 -Your Expenses are shown in a simple list - likely in alphabetical order

Accounting software includes a "standard" list of common business expenses. Categorizing your expenses to fit into this simple list will NOT help you understand how your business is performing and build a profitable business.

Your expenses WILL be unique, and your financial reports need to reflect that.

Does this describe your reports?

The good news is that you have a say in what your financial reports look like, and these things are easy to change!

When your reports are designed for YOUR business and are working FOR YOU, you can count on them to show you how your business is performing, set meaningful goals + get to work on building a profitable food business!
