The money is already in your business. Here’s exactly where to look.

Most business owners think they need more sales to make more money. They don’t. The real opportunity is already inside your business — hiding in plain sight.

Hidden Profit: Take Control of Your Finances, Stop Leaving Money on the Table, and Create Abundance in Your Business is the book Jamie Trull set out to write after years of watching hardworking entrepreneurs leave money behind, not because they weren’t capable, but because nobody ever showed them where it was going.

This is the guide that should have come with your business.

Hidden Profit framework showing how money flows through a small business and where profit is lost

This book was written for you if any of this sounds familiar.

  • You run a business under $1M in revenue and work incredibly hard, but the money doesn’t always show up the way you expect
  • You don’t want to leave money on the table, but you’re not sure of your next right move
  • You want a consistent income and a real plan that works for you, not someone else
  • You’ve been told to “just get a bookkeeper,” but that didn’t fix the feeling that something is off
  • You want to truly feel in control of the money in your business
  • You’re ready to stop guessing and start knowing

If you nodded at any of those, this book is for you. 

As Seen In

What You’ll Actually Walk Away With

Hidden Profit isn’t a theory book. Every chapter builds toward one goal: helping you understand your money well enough to make confident decisions with it.

The Hidden Profit Framework

Most business owners think their income problem is a revenue problem. It’s not. It’s a problem with your money flow. Hidden Profit shows you how money actually moves through your business, where it comes in, where it quietly disappears, and how to change that without working harder or raising your prices and hoping for the best.

The Eight Profit Levers

Inside every business are eight levers you can pull to become more profitable: pricing, product mix, average transaction value, and more. Jamie shows you exactly what they are, how to identify which ones matter most in your specific business, and how to move them using simple, actionable insights from your own numbers.

How to Calm the Financial Chaos

Bookkeeping. Taxes. Cash flow. Credit card bills. The financial back-end of running a business doesn’t have to feel like a fire you’re always putting out. Hidden Profit shows you how to create a simple, sustainable financial strategy that actually fits your life, no finance background required.

The PROFFIT Plan™

Once you find the profit hiding in your business, you need a plan for what to do with it. The PROFFIT Plan™ gives you a clear, personalized framework for paying yourself, saving for taxes, building reserves, and making intentional decisions about where your money goes before it’s gone.

Freedom on Your Terms

Too many business owners work themselves into the ground for too little return. Hidden Profit gives you the tools to break free from that cycle, not by doing more, but by understanding your numbers well enough to make every dollar work harder for you.

About The Author

Jamie Trull is a CPA, financial literacy coach, and profit strategist who spent over a decade inside the finance machine at Ernst & Young and Coca-Cola — before leaving at the peak of her career to build something different.

She founded Balance CFO in 2017, and since then has helped over 10,000 entrepreneurs take control of their business finances, understand their numbers, and keep more of what they earn. She is also the founder of Power in Numbers, a movement to democratize small-business financial education and put more economic power into the hands of entrepreneurs who’ve historically been left out.

Hidden Profit is the book she set out to write because the one small business owners actually needed didn’t exist yet.
