About Lee Crane, Owner of Billie Red Financial
Over the years, I have consulted with hundreds of independent business owners in several different industries. From working with Optometrists and Ophthalmologists, to consulting Crossfit gym owners across the country, I have over 15 years experience consulting with and learning from independent business owners. In my younger days, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree from La Roche College in Pittsburgh, and an MBA from Robert Morris University, also in Pittsburgh.
I worked for a CPA for several years and was the “Crossfit Specialist” within the firm, meaning the majority of my clients were box owners. Through my time working with Crossfit gyms around the country, I realized several things; first, owning/running a box is a ton of work and, second, one person cannot do it all.
Tell us a little bit more about how and why you started Billie Red Financial
I also learned that cash flow/budgeting, or more simply, money management is not only difficult, but absolutely necessary for long term success with a gym. For these reasons, I decided to start my business with the goal of working only with owners in the micro-gym space so as to become an expert in this industry. Since starting my business, I have worked with dozens of gyms across the country, and have expanded into other industries as well.
Being a small business owner myself, I have learned very quickly that I simply cannot do it all, and the simple act of trying to save money by performing all administrative tasks myself has actually hurt my business because what I should be doing is focusing on those items that will help my business grow. So my advice to all gym owners would be to outsource those administrative tasks that take time away from you growing your gym.
I believe growing in stages, slowly and steadily, is the path to building a strong and sustainable business.

I was hesitant to bring in a team to help with my finances, I tried to do everything myself. But Lee is right, doing everything myself was more detrimental to my business than I knew. I’m in a much better place financially now.
