With over 25 years of frontline experience Tom Shay is America's leading small business management expert. He's a "Must Have" for your next event.

Welcome!

 

 

You have just found the best online tool for small businesses. Decisions about how to manage your business should never be a guessing game. My purpose is to assist business owners and managers to increasing their profits and build their business for the future. I strive to achieve this through magazine articles, books, seminars,customized consulting services, and partnerships with other like minded businesses. I work with families and individuals whose livelihood depends on the results of the business. It’s an honor and a privilege to to work with and for businesses which serve their community.

As a fourth generation small business owner and speaker  I created Profits Plus to provide assistance to small business owners through a vast array of tools—calculators, magazine articles, books, seminars plus—all created with the experience and expertise I’ve gained from the past 30 years.  

I also work with manufacturers and wholesalers to help their staffs understand the complexity and challenges these small businesses face. Helping suppliers gain the knowledge to assist these small businesses allows the supplier to be a more valuable partner.

As you strive for success you listen to experts speak, read an article or book they’ve written, talk with them one-on-one, always in search of proven results. You want someone who has "been there and done that."I can point you to proven results.

Just ask me.

Top Story

We see a lot of social media with what we think is a "sympathy plea" do do business with local small businesses.

 

It is not going to work. People select where they do business based on positive reasons. We discuss what we are seeing.

Article of the Month

A timely article for the holiday season. With any business that has inventory, are you looking at sales per square foot? Are you looking to see which is the most valuable space in your business? You can increase sales by knowing which items to place where.


Book of the Month

Fix This Next by Mike Michalowicz. We love this description of the book; The biggest problem entrepreneurs have is that they do not know what their biggest problem is.

 

If you find yourself trapped between stagnating sales, staff turnover, and unhappy customers, what do you fix first? Every issue seems urgent - but there is no way to address all of them at once. The results? A business that continues to go in endless circles putting out urgent fires and prioritizing the wrong things.
