The Financial Blind Spots of Small Business Owners

US$25.00

Running a business can change the way you think about money. Revenue is coming in, expenses are going out, and somewhere in the middle you’re trying to decide when to pay yourself, what to set aside and whether your business is helping you build the life you want.

Join our elevateHER community for a practical financial workshop and social hour with Claire Hays of Savvy Financial Counseling.

Claire is an Accredited Financial Counselor who understands that business and personal finances are closely connected for small business owners. She’ll help us look at some common financial blind spots and think more clearly about the decisions we make for both our businesses and ourselves.

What to expect

Claire will lead a short presentation and conversation about:

  • Managing cash flow and understanding what’s available to you

  • Thinking through when and how to pay yourself

  • Preparing for unexpected expenses

  • Making financial decisions that support your business and your personal goals

There will be time for questions. You don’t need to arrive with your finances perfectly organized or be ready to share personal numbers with the group. Bring the questions you’ve been meaning to ask.

You’ll leave with a clearer sense of the financial questions worth paying attention to, ideas you can apply to your own situation and new connections with other local women business owners.

After Claire’s presentation and Q&A, we’ll shift into a relaxed elevateHER social hour with refreshments and time to connect.

This event is open to all women business owners, whether you’re growing an established company, working on a newer venture or figuring out how to make your business more financially sustainable.
