Why this topic matters

Financials tell a story, one that must inspire confidence as to where a business is headed. Investors don’t fund ideas, they fund numbers and profitability alone won’t save you if cash runs out. Without solid forecasts, even the best business concept will struggle to secure capital. Mastering these tools is about getting funded and proving that your business is built to last.
