Join us for an insightful webinar designed to help to get started with all the essential information for starting your business.

About this event:

Join us for an insightful workshop with Dawn Leader from the Dorset Growth Hub. In this workshop we will be looking at some basics to help those just about to start or who have just started working for themselves, freelancing, self-employed or starting their own business.

We encourage Q&A engagement but there is also the opportunity to meet the team who can follow up with more personalised support on a 1-2-1 basis.

What we will cover:

  • Cash flow: The importance of forecasting can be the difference between success and failure. Where, when or if you need extra money within your business. You can use a forecast to make informed decisions regarding your spending and saving.
  • Budgeting: Understanding when you will need to spend time/money and how (linked closely to cash flow)
  • Profit: The difference between a hobby and a business is the profit, and how to increase profit margins.
  • Taxes (and other payments): Managing these costs and planning for them.
  • Finance: Bank accounts, extra money etc
  • Getting paid: Invoicing, taking payment, terms etc.
  • Expenses: Keeping records.
