SCORE: Your Business Finances: Do the Numbers Justify Growth? – Nov 27

Do you think your business is ready to grow to the next level?

It may be, but the number one reason (82%) small businesses fail is management has a poor understanding of the business’ cash flow and how to manage it. This can be especially true during a period of growth.

This session will assist business owners to identify and analyze the various factors that affect cash flow and ultimately profitability, and the business’ overall financial condition. This analysis is crucial in determining if your business is ready to grow, and the financial pieces that need to be in place to support that growth.

Our guest speaker, Michael Ly from Reconciled, will bring his dynamic, fast paced energy going through all the key elements for analyzing if your business is ready to grow as well as the financial pieces that need to be in place to support that growth.
