On Friday, April 13th we're super excited to partner with our friends at FreshBooks to bring you a morning workshop all about getting ready to pitch VCs, angels, Dragons or anyone else who might be thinking about investing in your startup. We'll be kicking things off at 8am with light breakfast and networking, before jumping into the talk at 8:30am. Register now as spots are limited!

TOPIC: Is Your Startup VC Ready?
Growing a business very exciting, and getting funded is top of mind for many founders. But most wear so many hats - jugling product, team, brand - that they forget the importance of great bookkeeping and financials during a round of vetting by potential investors. It can be daunting! Investors are interested in the idea, the success of your company and the potential of the market share you can win... but how do you prove it? This workshop will cover the benefits of having accurate and clean bookkeeping, what investors are looking for when they assess your company, when to get a professional to help, and more.

On Friday you will learn the benefits of:

● Full visibility - You can see the full picture of business activity, not just your bank balance. 
● Timely reporting - You can react in real time to make decisions. 
● Easy tax prep and filings - You can provide your accountant accurate financials for tax filings at a lower cost. 
● Eligible for funding - Clean financials are a primary part of banks and lending institutions approval processes. Having them readily available when needed is essential.
● Confidence - You will be able to proactively make management decisions and forecast a road map ahead. No more sleepless nights.
● Options - Just like your credit score, having great books increases your options and opportunities for growth
