Budget is not a word that should scare you, but it is something you should care about. A sound budget stops you from driving blind and operating in the dark. Often, business owners don’t know where they are financially, where they’re going or how to get there. No budget? No plan.

Let’s change that! In this workshop, I’ll share with you:

• The biggest budget blunders business owners make and how you can avoid them
• How to use information you already have to build your budget
• The tools to create a roadmap for your business
• A plan to build confidence in making sound financial decisions

This class will put you in the driver’s seat of your business.
