Profit Intelligence HQ · With John North

There's more profit hiding in your business than you think. Usually six figures of it.

I've found it in 1,000+ businesses. What used to take weeks of digging, an AI now does with me in days. That's the point: you get the number and the plan while it still matters, not a quarter from now.

Why I can make that promise

35 years learning where the money hides

Every step below taught me something about finding and building profit in a business. I'm John North, and here's what each one means for yours.

John North, Profit Intelligence Strategist
1980–91Westpac Bank

11 years inside a bank (commercial lending)

Assistant Commercial Manager, assessing commercial and residential lending up to $5m, credit, valuation, recommendation.

So I read your numbers the way your bank does, before they do.
1989Qualified

Qualified as a Professional National Accountant

Associate Diploma in Business (Accounting), completed with honours in accounting while working full time at the bank, and admitted as a Professional National Accountant.

The formal grounding under three decades of reading businesses' numbers.
1991–99Accounting systems

1,000 implementations of business accounting systems

I sold and installed more than 1,000 accounting and business systems into small and medium companies through the Complete Business Results years.

So I've seen where money hides in 1,000 businesses. Yours won't be a new hiding place.
1991–99Complete Business Results

I invested over $100,000 learning marketing

While I was building my Queensland business to 1,000 customers, I put more than $100,000 into learning marketing from the best in the world, because selling the systems was only half the job.

So the marketing education that costs a fortune and takes years, I've already bought. You get what it taught me.
1999–2014Sage Pastel AU

#20 to #2 in the world, in three years

I took over the Australian arm of the international Sage Pastel software business, led 25 staff, rebuilt the channel, and moved the territory from twentieth to second worldwide. The lever that did it: I introduced a recurring revenue model.

The exact transformation I now run for you, I've already done at world scale.
2010–Publishing & SaaS

I build the systems, I don't just advise

150+ books published for clients, and two software platforms built from the ground up. I've run the businesses, carried the P&L, and shipped the tools, in good years and hard ones.

2025–26EvolvepreneurIQ

Then I taught an AI to do it

I took 70,000 hours of business experience, a working lifetime of it, and over 5,000 hours of AI development time since May 2025 I built EvolvepreneurIQ and taught it everything I learnt.

So you get 35 years of judgment, delivered by the AI in 90 days, not a year.
The point of all of it

70,000 hours of experience, taught to an AI.

Finding and building profit in a business used to take me the better part of a year. So I took 70,000 hours of doing it by hand and, over 5,000 hours of AI development time since May 2025, taught an AI system everything I learnt. Now it lands in your business in as little as 90 days. That is the difference between hiring my experience and owning the system I built from it.

The profit system

Three changes of 5% can lift profit by 61%

That is not a typo. And no, it is not fifteen percent.

+5%
+
−5%
+
−5%
=
61%
more profit

Most owners look for one big win. The quicker path is a small number of changes, none of them bigger than five percent, made in the right places and the right order so they compound on the bottom line instead of adding up in a straight line.

Six engines = Profit Intelligence

Each one goes after a different pocket of profit. Run together, pointed at your business, they are what I call Profit Intelligence.

Profit Engine

The whole picture, pulled together, so more of every dollar you take reaches your bottom line.

Expense Engine

We find the money quietly leaving your business every month and we stop it.

Conversion Engine

More of the visitors and leads you already pay for turn into paying customers.

Sales Engine

More revenue from what you've already built, through pricing, offers and reach.

Systems Engine

Your business runs on one platform instead of ten tools, so the gains hold instead of leaking away.

AI Engine

The 5,000 hours of AI development behind the platform, pointed at the few places in your business where AI actually makes money.

"Is this just another consultant?"
No. Consultants hand you a report and invoice you. I find the money, agree the number with you, and stay to make it real. You pay for the result, not the paperwork.
"Will you understand my business?"
I've been inside the books of more than 1,000 businesses and run several of my own. I get up to speed fast and go where the numbers point.
"What's it going to cost?"
We agree that once I've seen what your business actually needs. The largest part of my fee is tied to the result I prove, not the hours I spend.
"Am I locked in?"
No. We start with a defined piece of work and a clear finish. You carry on only if it's worth carrying on.
