FINANCIAL MODELING FOR ENTREPRENEURS, EXECUTIVES, AND MANAGERS WITH NO FINANCIAL BACKGROUND

LEARN HOW TO BUILD YOUR FINANCIAL MODEL. UNDERSTAND THE KEY DRIVERS OF YOUR FINANCIALS. GAIN CONFIDENCE IN FRONT OF INVESTORS.

Increase your chances of getting funded

The Financial Modeling seminar is the perfect online seminar for entrepreneurs, executives, and managers that have limited financial background or would like to expand their modeling expertise.

In order to raise financing you will need to build a financial model. This is the perfect seminar to bring you up to speed and not only build your model but also gain enough confidence to be able to present it to investors.

By building these models and projections, you will be able to validate all your business assumptions and understand your key strategic drivers. Furthermore, having your company’s projections for the next 24 to 60 months can help you avoid catastrophic financial errors that could put you out of business.

Why you need this online seminar:

  • Most entrepreneurs and executives can not raise financing given their lack of understanding of their own numbers
  • Not having a clear grasp on your business numbers could lead to business failure
  • Having a good model could serve as an execution road map
  • Good projections and modeling are essential to getting bank loans
