The Path to Prophitability with Percy Swint

As a Food Founder, knowing your costs is the first and most important step you can take toward profitability. Having a tool that helps guide that work will make your life easier, and give you the confidence that you are on the right track.   In this episode, Sarah talks with Percy Swint, founder and designer of Prophit App. Percy has worked for some of the biggest tech companies including Quicken Loans (Rocket Mortgage), Compass Real Estate, and Intuit. Percy was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, before receiving a Bachelor's degree in Landscape Design from Penn State University and moving to Southern California in 2013.    An entrepreneur at heart, Percy began his graphic design business and acquired much of his clientele via craigslist and word of mouth. One client in particular would come to be his wife. Early in their relationship, Percy and his wife Maile operated a gourmet dessert business. Some of the hardships they faced brought about Prophit, a software for food & beverage manufacturers that helps them track their costs and inventory.    In November 2022, Percy launched Prophit, and he’s on the podcast today to share the evolution from spreadsheet to online tool, how it works, and how it can impact founders across the good food industry.   Percy is offering a special discount for our listeners!
