Same as when you buy a franchise, you need to learn the language of business. There are specific words and phrases which have a specific meaning in business. In fact, many of them ONLY have meaning in a business context.
So, why is this important?
Because when you communicate with others about business matters, you need to be speaking the same language.
. Banks and finance companies. They'll ask specific questions about assets, debts, serviceability, capacity to repay.
. The Tax Office. They’re interested in your tax obligations, GST, BAS, Income Tax and your ability to pay off any debts.
. Your spouse, or partner. Money is the cause of so many arguments in relationships. So, it’s essential to be sure of what the numbers mean and how things are looking.
. Your Franchisor. They’re keen for you to succeed, so should be interested in the financial health of your business.
Our Financial Conversations workshop explains these topics plus a whole lot more, in a fun, engaging, non-threatening environment. Whatever level your franchisees are at, they’ll get a lot out of the workshop.
