Webinar Recording: The Power of Knowing Your Numbers

Recorded June 5, 2026
Content Level: Foundational

Oh, the stories your financial statements can tell… if you only knew how to read them! Most accounting systems give you a financial picture which is just a summary of past events. It’s not enough detail to help you make operating decisions. Knowing and tracking your financial performance can help you avoid disaster by monitoring trends and seeing potential challenges before they occur.

In this interactive program we will give you a more entrepreneurial view of your accounting which gets into more detail and helps you focus more on profitability. We will explain in plain English where your actions show up on the financials so you can relate what you do to where it "belongs." With this detail you can take back control of your accounting and translate your financials into something you can actually use to predict future growth. Have your own financial statements for the current or prior year ready – you will learn to read them!

In this webinar you will:

• Learn to read your financial statements, using your own financial reports (profit & loss, balance sheet on an accrual basis).
• Receive tips on how to work with your accountant or tax professional.
• Understand the stories each financial statement tells you about the health of your business.
