Tips to Keep Your Small Business Financially Healthy 

Do you know how your financial record keeping and reporting can affect your business decisions? How your personal credit affects your ability to get capital? In this FREE workshop, you'll hear tips from several speakers that will help guide your small business towards solid financial ground.

All business owners have to balance costs but still invest in the future. These choices need to be informed by the financial numbers for the business so that you have a better shot at success.

This workshop will help you understand:

• Common financial reports, what they tell you and why you should care
• How to think about your cash flow, considering seasonal imbalances and expense planning
• How your credit affects your finances
• Available financial tools to help with the business decision making process
• When (if) to consider additional capital

Registration begins at 9:00 am. The workshop begins promptly at 9:30 am. Walk-ins welcome.
