“If you don’t know your numbers, you don’t know your business.” This is a common refrain that is equally applicable to attorney and other consultants who work with businesses.
This webinar series is designed for you if you are a startup founder, business owner, executive, investor, attorney or consultant who, though not a finance or accounting professional, finds herself needing to understand finance and accounting. It won’t make you an expert but it will give you the tools you need to speak with experts in order to get more out of them and it will provide a solid foundation on which you can build.
Packed with illustrative examples, helpful anecdotes and real-world case studies, this series teaches you some of the key take things you need to understand about finance and accounting.
As with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode is delivered in Plain English so that you do not have to be a Business Law specialist to understand and benefit from them. And, as with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode brings you into engaging, sometimes humorous, conversations designed to entertain as it teaches. Each episode in the series is designed to be viewed independently of the other episodes so that participants will enhance their knowledge of this area whether they attend one, some, or all episodes.
Episode #3
You can chase a lot of financial measures of your business, but nothing stacks up to cash flow. Like a boat captain on a rough sea, being able to see what is coming at you financially is absolutely invaluable.
Cash flow models are the absolute go-to tool for reviewing companies in distress, yet they are also invaluable to venture capitalist who must manage long range investments as well as fast growth. This webinar discusses the basic components of a cash flow model, why it is weekly and not monthly and why 13 weeks is the usual length. This webinar also discusses what type of data is best for making an efficient and practical cash flow model, as well as best practices for reporting and pitfalls associated with modeling and balance roll forwards.
This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you do are not a Business Law Specialist. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.
