Foundations of Entrepreneurial Finance

Finance is not a spreadsheet exercise; it is a leadership skill. Replace fear with curiosity, and perfectionism with progress. Commit to short weekly reviews, celebrate small wins, and treat every metric as feedback guiding your next best move.

Foundations of Entrepreneurial Finance

Understand how cash, revenue, costs, and equity move together. When you see the links, choices feel obvious. Align goals with measurable inputs, and your calendar with financial priorities. Tell us which flow confuses you, and we will unpack it together.

Cash Flow Mastery

The 13-Week Cash View

Build a rolling 13-week cash forecast focused on receipts, disbursements, and net change. Update weekly, not monthly. This short horizon transforms anxiety into action by revealing exactly which levers to pull before problems become emergencies.

Funding Paths and Capital Strategy

Many great companies began with customer revenue, tight scope, and relentless focus. Treat constraints as creativity fuel. Pre-sell, run pilots, and prioritize high-velocity experiments. Share a scrappy win, and we will highlight it in our next post.

Start with Revenue Drivers

Model leads, conversion rates, average order value, and cycles. Connect them to headcount and delivery capacity so growth never outruns operations. When assumptions change, update once and flow through. Post your four core drivers for quick feedback.

Sensitivity and Scenario Planning

Create Base, Upside, and Downside scenarios using the same model. Toggle critical assumptions to see impact on cash and hiring. This practice reduces reactive decisions. Share a risky assumption, and we will suggest two stress tests today.

Make Assumptions Falsifiable

Turn assumptions into measurable hypotheses, then design experiments to validate them quickly. For example, time-to-convert targets or onboarding completion rates. Falsifiable assumptions build credibility with teams and investors by linking vision to evidence.

Metrics, Dashboards, and Rituals

Pick one North Star that reflects durable value creation, then set guardrails like burn, churn, and gross margin. When trade-offs appear, guardrails prevent self-sabotage. Comment with your North Star, and we will propose balanced guardrails.

Metrics, Dashboards, and Rituals

Keep it visual and minimal: cash, runway, pipeline health, conversion, retention, and margin. Add alerts for thresholds. Review weekly with owners assigned to each metric. We can share a one-page template if you drop us a quick note.

Metrics, Dashboards, and Rituals

Send a concise monthly update covering highlights, lowlights, metrics, and asks. Consistency compounds trust and unlocks timely help. We learned this from a founder who cut fundraising time in half by communicating progress before asking for introductions.
