You are invited to attend this 2-day Financial Master Class for the landscape industry.
This is an interactive virtual workshop—where you will gain tools to master your numbers, run your business more confidently, and improve your profitability and cash flow across all areas of your company.
It runs for 5 hours each day, with ample breaks to keep you fresh.
THIS 2-DAY FINANCIAL MASTERCLASS WILL EQUIP YOU TO:
BENCHMARK YOUR NUMBERS AGAINST THE INDUSTRY:
each participant will supply 12 months financial numbers (in a form we will provide) that I will benchmark anonymously against the group and against my “best in class” benchmarks. You will see how you compare with the industry and where to improve your financial score.
MAKE BETTER DECISIONS WITH BETTER REPORTS AND MORE BUY-IN:
Maximize the usefulness of your numbers by setting up your chart of accounts and managing your books correctly, for better divisional and company wide reporting. Learn which key mistakes to avoid, and learn how to share and educate your team.
IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR KEY PEOPLE AND DIVISIONS:
Better manage your salespeople, division managers, foremen/crews using key performance metrics and accountability systems.
CREATE SKIN IN THE GAME:
with your team members by successfully implementing incentives and open book management. Avoid all the classic mistakes.
ACHIEVE 20%+ NET PROFIT:
Drive net profit of your business to 20% and beyond with my proven strategies.
You will also learn how to:
- Understand the most important financial terms and techniques,using a tool I created called Jeffrey’s "Financial Savvy” scorecard; you will get to grade yourself vs others and see how well you score.
- Set goals for 2022 that will improve your profitability.
- Differentiate between growth vs. profitable growth (using a simple exercise that you can use within your own company to educate your team).
- Expose myths of incentive programs, what works and what doesn’t.
This Financial Master Class will change your life and how you think about and run your business!
