Course Description

Lost profits due to poor financial management are common with small businesses.

  • More than half of U.S. businesses have lost $10,000 or more by foregoing a project or sales specifically due to issues created by insufficient cash flow. (Quickbooks study)

  • 82% of small businesses fail because of poor cash flow management skills or poor understanding of cash flow (U.S. Bank)
