Your Business Decisions Show Up In Your Numbers.


Understand how you make money, what drives results, and where you can do better.

Cash gets tied up in inventory. Sales grow, but margins shrink. Your biggest customer may be your least profitable. Expenses creep up.

The decisions made every day in purchasing, production, and sales ripple through your financial results. Understanding what drives those results helps you make better decisions about what to do next.

You get a lot of numbers from different teams. But do you get the whole story?

When the pieces of operations and money management don't connect, decisions can cost you thousands, small problems can become crises, and your business may be worth less than you think.

You're the one who lives with the results.

Guided Money Tours helps you discover how the pieces of your business fit together financially, what's missing, and where you may be leaving money on the table. It's a one-on-one financial leadership experience for owners of manufacturing and distribution businesses.

Do you think of money management as a process?

You have specific expectations for managing production, quality, hiring, and other operations. When something breaks down, you know it fast, because it costs you.

Money works the same way. But most owners haven't been shown how to manage it with the same discipline. It's not just looking at your P&L and the bank balance. It goes beyond accounting and includes forecasts, analysis, decision evaluation, and tax planning. Money management has more moving parts than most owners realize.

Do these money issues feel familiar?

You’re profitable, but cash is always tight.

Your accountant says you made $100,000. Your bank account disagrees.

Your biggest customer might be your least profitable.

A price increase you skipped three years ago is still costing you.

You’re not sure what a buyer would pay for your business, or which numbers would raise its value.

These aren't isolated financial problems. They're signs of opportunities you may be missing.

Accounting builds a foundation. Finance creates value.

Smart Money Management covers everything it takes:
  • From financial strategy to accounting transactions.
  • From understanding the past to planning for the future

Accounting is your defense, focused on reporting and compliance. Finance plays offense, helping you decide how to put points on the board.

You need both to manage and protect your money. The question is: "Who helps you pull it all together?"

There is a better way.

Smart travelers hire a guide.
So should you.

A good guide does more than point at the sights. They bring things alive. They explain what you’re seeing, how it got that way, and what you’d otherwise miss. And you can ask anything, at any time.

Guided Money Tours brings that discovery to your business. Over seven sessions, we explore your numbers, your team, and how money is managed. This isn't a class or a case study. We start with three years of your numbers and uncover what they’ve been trying to tell you.

You can continue alone. Or discover what you are missing.

Meet Your Guide.

I'm Lynn Corazzi, a business owner. And like you, I've dealt with the challenges of buying services outside my area of expertise. Sometimes, it's really frustrating.

I created Guided Money Tours to share what I've learned about managing business finances over the last 40 years. Whether supporting leaders at Procter & Gamble and Grande Cheese or providing fractional CFO services to successful business owners, I kept coming back to the same question they asked:

"How do I make decisions when I don't know?"

That question helped inspire Stop Avoiding Your Numbers, which I co-authored with another CFO. As we wrote it, we also recognized something fundamental: no one will ever care more about your numbers than you do.

Let's start with a 30-minute conversation. Tell me where your business is headed, and I'll tell you straight whether Guided Money Tours is right for you.
