Tools and Tricks for Business Decision Making

So you have a new idea for your business. How can you be sure that it will actually make you money? In this session, you’ll learn how to use your financial statements and solid analysis to make good financial decisions for your business. You will be able to calculate your business break-even (what you need to make to not lose money), and forecast your cash flow (how much $ can you expect to flow in and out of your business).

Effective Marketing Strategies

There is one simple truth. If you don’t have customers, you don’t have a business. 

Explore strategies for finding the right customers and how best to communicate to them so they will understand why they should buy from you.

Funding Business Growth

There are several ways you can fund business growth (buying the things / hiring the people you need to grow your business). You can reinvest your business profits, or you can borrow money (loan) from a bank or other financial organization that you will pay back over time with future profits. Learn more about various options and ways to make different strategies work for your business.
