SUMMARY:Accessing Capital for Your Small Business
DESCRIPTION:Accessing capital isn’t just about filling out a loan application; it’s about understanding how lenders think and preparing your business to be a strong\, credible borrower. This workshop is designed to help business owners understand what banks look for\, how lending decisions are made\, and how to build productive relationships with banking partners. \nYou’ll learn how the loan application process works from start to finish\, what information lenders use to assess risk\, and how to realistically plan for the amount and timing of capital you’re seeking. We’ll break down common lending criteria\, including time in business\, management experience\, market conditions\, collateral\, and your ability to repay. You’ll also gain insight into underwriting and the key financial ratios banks review\, such as leverage\, liquidity\, cash flow\, and debt service coverage. \nThis session will also help you see the lending process as a two-way conversation. You’ll learn how to evaluate different types of banks\, ask the right questions\, and position your business clearly and confidently. We’ll talk through how business history\, financial statements\, and projections factor into lending decisions\, and how to avoid common missteps that can slow or derail the process. \n\nHybrid Format\nThis workshop is offered in a hybrid format\, so you can join us in person in our classroom at our office in the 18th and Vine District or online via Zoom\, whatever works best for you. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Financial Projections for Small Businesses
DESCRIPTION:If you own a business\, you need more than a good idea. You need a clear understanding of how money will flow in and out over time. Financial projections help you answer some of the most important questions every business owner faces: How much can I realistically make? What will it cost to operate? And is this business sustainable long-term? \nThis workshop walks you through how financial projections work and how to build them in a way that’s practical\, realistic\, and useful. You’ll learn how to estimate revenue and expenses\, use basic market and competitor research to inform your numbers\, and apply common forecasting methods to plan for the next three to five years. We’ll also cover how projections fit into your business plan and why lenders and funders often expect to see them. \nYou’ll explore different forecasting approaches\, learn what assumptions matter most\, and understand how to adjust your projections as your business grows. We’ll break down key components like revenue\, operating costs\, profit\, and cash flow so you can confidently explain your numbers\, even if you’re not a financial expert. \n\nHybrid Format\nThis workshop is offered in a hybrid format\, so you can join us in person in our classroom at our office in the 18th and Vine District or online via Zoom\, whatever works best for you. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Small Business Taxes: What Every Owner Should Know
