Stop Bleeding Cash: The Boutique Profit Rules No One Told You with Christyne Gray

If you own a boutique, run a retail store, manage inventory, or support product-based businesses — this episode is required listening.

Today I’m joined by Christyne Gray, a distinguished retail accountant, certified tax specialist, and CEO of She Profits Now. For 25 years, Christyne has helped independent retailers, brand creators, and wholesalers elevate their profits, maximize returns, and minimize financial overwhelm.

And here’s why she’s different:
 Christyne explains financial strategy in a way no accountant has on this show. She breaks down the concept of profit guardrails — how to create them, why they matter, and how they prevent silent revenue leaks that are SO common in boutique retail.

We also talk about:
 ✨ Why inventory-based businesses require a different financial approach
 ✨ The hidden habits that sabotage boutique profit
 ✨ How to finally understand your numbers without wanting to cry
 ✨ And why Profit First doesn't work for retail! 

If you’re in the retail industry or know someone who is, share this episode with them. Christyne is the go-to accountant for boutique retail, and she’s about to make your financial life SO much clearer.
