Live Sessions That Actually Make Sense of Your Numbers
Most business owners in Australia look at their financial reports and feel like they're reading a foreign language. We get it — because we've sat across the table from hundreds of you over the past eight years.
Our webinars aren't about fancy theories or textbook formulas. They're about taking the numbers you already have and turning them into decisions you can act on tomorrow morning. Real cash flow problems. Real working capital headaches. Real conversations with people who've been there.
We run these sessions monthly, and they're deliberately small. Fifteen to twenty participants max, so you can actually ask about your specific situation without feeling like you're holding up a lecture hall.
Your Host
Declan Whitmore
Twenty-three years working with Australian SMEs, from Dubbo to Darwin. Started in commercial lending, moved into advisory work because I got tired of just saying no to loan applications. Now I help businesses figure out why their numbers look the way they do — and more importantly, what to do about it.
Current Webinar Schedule
These sessions run live via video conference. You'll need about ninety minutes, a calculator, and your most recent financial statements. Come with questions — that's the whole point.
Working Capital Fundamentals for Growing Businesses
Core SeriesYour revenue went up 40% last year, but somehow you've got less cash in the bank. Sound familiar? This session walks through the working capital cycle — how inventory, receivables, and payables interact to either free up cash or trap it. We'll look at three real case studies from Australian businesses and break down what went wrong (and right).
Reading Between the Lines of Your Balance Sheet
AnalysisYour accountant hands you a balance sheet every quarter. But what's it actually telling you about working capital health? We spend this session on ratio analysis that matters — current ratio, quick ratio, working capital turnover. Not just how to calculate them, but what the numbers mean when you're trying to decide whether to take on that new contract or invest in more stock.
Cash Flow Forecasting Without the Spreadsheet Headaches
PracticalYou don't need a finance degree or complex software to forecast cash flow reasonably well. This session covers the practical side — building a rolling 13-week forecast that you'll actually use and update. We look at common pitfalls (everyone forgets about quarterly tax payments) and how to stress-test your forecast for different scenarios.
Managing Supplier Relationships and Payment Terms
StrategyPayment terms can make or break your working capital position. But too many businesses accept whatever terms suppliers offer without negotiating. This session covers how to approach those conversations, what leverage you actually have, and how to balance supplier relationships with cash flow needs. Includes real examples of term negotiations that worked (and a few that didn't).
