💥 $2.1M in Grants + Get your P&L in minutes

TL:DR The biggest newsletter ever - $2.1mm in funding. Happy Mother's Day for all our mompreneurs!

Running a business is already hard.


Running one while keeping a tiny human alive? That’s a whole other level of CEO.

This week, we’re celebrating the mompreneurs, the founders building brands during nap time, pitching investors with a baby monitor next to their laptop, and figuring out cash flow between daycare runs.

You’re raising a business and a human. That’s not just impressive, it's iconic.

If that’s you, we see you. And if it’s not? You probably know one so forward this her way.

Happy Mother's Day 💜

✨ Save time and automate

Running a business is hard enough, your finances shouldn't be a guessing game.

The average solopreneur spends 5-7 hours a month on bookkeeping. Not to mention they miss out on an average of $15k+ in tax savings every year just because they don't have the right tools.
 

That’s why we built Investrio, your all-in-one financial center:

✅ Automate your bookkeeping
✅ Track every dollar
✅ Maximize your deductions
✅ Plan ahead with ease
 

You work too hard to leave money behind.

Join our private beta today and let’s make sure every penny you earn works harder for you. 💸

Why Every Business Owner Needs a P&L (Profit & Loss Statement)

If you’re running a business, you need more than just a gut feeling about how things are going.
A Profit & Loss statement (P&L) helps you see what’s really happening with your money .

A P&L gives you three things:


📈 What you earned (revenue)
📉 What you spent (expenses)
What’s left (profit)

When you track this regularly, it becomes easier to plan for slow months or growth investments and understand how much you can really pay yourself

How to create a simple P&L:

  1. List all your income for the month (clients, product sales, etc.)

  2. Add up all your business expenses

  3. Subtract expenses from income to find your profit


Our app automatically generates your P&L pulling in income and expenses across both business and personal accounts, so you can see everything in one place.

Postpartum recovery is brutal. And for a long time, the market acted like it wasn’t.

Frida Mom said: nope. 

They built a brand around the real stuff no one wanted to talk about and helped turn Frida into a 9-figure powerhouse.

They launched tools that actually help moms recover healing foam, mesh undies, and cooling pads that changed the game.

💥 Lead with radical honesty
From cracked nipples to ice packs, their campaigns showed the raw truth and went viral. Moms felt seen, not sold to.

💥 Build more than a product
They made postpartum care mainstream, pushing big retailers to take maternal health seriously.
