About this Event
The Business Finance Bootcamp is designed to help you start a business, keep it going and continue to grow it.
Finances are often the last thing business owners consider, but making money is the fundamental reason most people go into business.
Digital technology has revolutionised the way we manage accounts, and with the government now making tax digital, keeping digital records is a legal requirement.
Many people will understand that in the beginning, you are likely to be spending more than you make, so how do you get started?
In this session, we will demystify the terminology around funding to answer questions such as:
- What are the implications of borrowing from family and friends?
- What does an Angel investor look for?
- How does the government support startups?
- What does the bank look for when approving loans?
This one-day Bootcamp will help you to stay organised, legal and compliant, and you may even enjoy making the numbers work.
Starting a business can be expensive, so work with us to understand how to manage your finances as you build the road to success.
We will examine start-up costs and funding, including various options for raising funds, with examples of how others have successfully done so.
- Understand how to approach investment from Banks, Family and Friends and Angels.
- Find out how to search for Grants related to your business
- What is profit, and how to develop a Profit & Loss (P&L) forecast
- How Digital Technology has changed the way we run accounts
- The many different digital apps and how they help, including expenses, accounting, bookkeeping and payroll
In addition, we will also cover key sales and marketing planning to help you turn your financial goals into practical action, including:
- A clear revenue and sales target
- A lead generation target linked to those sales goals
- A basic marketing budget framework
- A simple sales and marketing activity plan
- A 90-day action plan to start implementing immediately
