Most businesses fail because they run out of cash, not because they lack good ideas. This workshop walks through the financial patterns we've seen in hundreds of Australian SMEs—what works, what drains resources fast, and how to build a buffer that actually protects you during slow months.
Reserve Your SpotYou don't need an accounting degree to create a useful budget. This session covers the practical side—setting realistic targets, tracking what matters, and adjusting when reality hits differently than expected. We'll work through real examples from attendees who volunteer their numbers.
Pricing isn't just cost-plus markup. We'll explore how Australian businesses in various sectors approach pricing decisions, including psychological factors, competitive positioning, and knowing when to walk away from unprofitable work. Bring your current pricing model and we'll examine it together.
Sometimes growth destroys businesses. This workshop looks at the financial realities of scaling—when it makes sense, when patience pays off better, and how to evaluate expansion opportunities without betting the entire business on one decision.
Many businesses experience feast-or-famine cycles. Learn how others handle irregular income, structure expenses to match revenue patterns, and plan purchases around cash flow realities rather than calendar dates.
Most business owners look at their accounts too late to make meaningful adjustments. This webinar introduces a simple monthly review system that takes about 90 minutes but catches problems while you still have options.
Financial Educator & Business Consultant
Alistair spent fifteen years working with Australian SMEs before transitioning to education. His approach comes from observing what actually works in real businesses—not textbook theory. He's particularly interested in helping founders who didn't come from finance backgrounds develop practical money management skills.
Before consulting, he managed operations for a manufacturing business that went through both growth phases and near-collapse scenarios. That experience shapes how he talks about financial planning—with an understanding that business rarely goes according to plan.
Leading: Cash Flow Mastery Workshop
We record most sessions and make them available to registered participants. The quality isn't Hollywood-level, but you'll get the content and can follow along with shared materials.
Recent recordings include sessions on invoice management, choosing accounting software, and understanding financial statements without drowning in jargon. Each comes with downloadable worksheets and templates used during the live event.
