Budgeting is a forecast of what your business will accomplish in the next time frame. Some companies spend weeks developing a budget, and some do it in the morning. What we all want is an effective tool that generates predictable profits. This workshop is about painless budgeting that works and gives owners control day by day.
All of us budget our personal money if only on the back of an envelope, to see if we have enough money to pay rent and buy that “toy” we always wanted. Business is no different, except that good businesses spend the time to develop good budgeting practices that keep them on track for a year or two at a time and lead to predictable profits. Then you can buy that toy!
