Setting up your business for success: legal, financial and operational foundations

A recent survey shows that women small business owners believe financial literacy is the biggest hurdle to overcome when running a business. And yet overcoming it is key to managing cash flow, making informed decisions, navigating economic challenges and planning for future scaling and sustainable growth. NAWBO is bringing financial literacy to you in this new three-part virtual workshop series that is open—and free—to members and non-members.

This session will provide an in-depth look at the essential steps for setting up a business correctly. Topics will include choosing the right business structure, setting up accounting systems, understanding legal requirements and establishing effective operational processes. This workshop will ensure entrepreneurs have a solid foundation to build and grow their business sustainably.
