Our Story

Built for ecommerce.
Obsessed with profit.

Your Profit Team exists because ecommerce finances are genuinely different — and most financial advisors don't understand them. We do. We've spent over a decade inside the numbers of 500+ ecommerce brands and we wrote the book on Profit First for ecommerce sellers.

How We Got Here

The numbers told a story no one else was reading.

Cyndi Thomason started bookskeep in 2015 with a simple mission: give ecommerce sellers the financial clarity they needed to grow with confidence. What she discovered was that most sellers had no idea where their profit was going — or whether they had any at all.

After working with hundreds of brands across Amazon, Shopify, and multi-channel setups, Cyndi saw the same patterns repeating. Revenue growing. Cash tightening. Owners paying themselves last — or not at all. She became a Certified Profit First Professional at the Mastery Level and wrote Profit First for Ecommerce Sellers to put a proven framework into every seller's hands.

Your Profit Team was built to go further — bringing fractional CFO-level strategy to brands doing $2.5M or more who are ready to stop guessing and start building real financial operating systems.

"Most ecommerce owners are running blind. Revenue looks good on paper, but cash is always tight. That gap — between revenue and real profit — is exactly what we fix."

The Research

What we found when we went inside the numbers

We analyzed 37 ecommerce businesses in depth. What we found changed how we advise every client — and confirmed what we suspected about how most brands are actually performing.

72%
Of brands that looked healthy on the surface were actually operating under financial pressure — they just didn't know it yet.
20pts
Fee gap between Amazon-heavy and Shopify-primary sellers. Platform choice alone moves the needle by 20 percentage points on all-in fees.
6x
More debt carried by struggling brands vs. healthy ones. Debt isn't the cause — it's a symptom of the cash flow problem underneath.
31%
All-in fee rate on Amazon-primary businesses when you add up every platform, fulfillment, and selling fee. Most owners underestimate this by half.
12–80%
Range of ad spend as a share of gross profit across the brands we studied. The spread is enormous — and most brands don't know where they fall.
5
Profit levers that determine your financial health: COGS, platform fees, ad spend, operating expenses, and revenue. Pull the wrong one and the others collapse.

Why Ecommerce Only

We don't work with every kind of business. That's the point.

Ecommerce finances aren't like any other business model. Inventory cycles, platform fees, ad spend ratios, seasonal cash crunches, multi-channel complexity — these require a specialist, not a generalist.

When you work with Your Profit Team, you're working with advisors who spend 100% of their time inside ecommerce numbers. We've seen your exact problem before — and we know exactly where to look.

  • Deep expertise in Amazon, Shopify, and multi-channel financials
  • Inventory financing cycles and cash timing specific to physical goods
  • Platform fee benchmarks across seller types and categories
  • Ad spend analysis tied directly to profit, not just ROAS
  • Profit First methodology adapted specifically for ecommerce margins
  • 500+ ecommerce businesses served — pattern recognition no generalist can match
