Financial Awareness Coaching
Understanding your business and the mechanics beneath it will make it easier to understand how to make it more efficient and make more money.
You can run a successful business and not truly understand the financial metrics of your business.
Whilst the business is performing well, this may not be a concern.
However, when it comes to making informed investments, understanding why performance is dropping off or building a growth plan, having financial awareness, and understanding the detail of your business finances and financial reporting is key.
Are you asking yourself these questions?
Why has my profit increased?
Can I afford to hire a new member of staff?
Why do I have no cash, but my profit is high?
Have I taken too many dividends?
How can I improve my cashflow?
Should I be looking at my P&L, Balance Sheet, or Trading Account?
Understanding your business and the mechanics beneath it will make it easier to understand how to make it more efficient and make more money.
