Delivered by: Jenny Bracelin
For: Aspiring, new and established micro providers
Book your place: Micro Provider – Money Matters
Money Matters will help you build a simple and manageable financial system for your micro business from day one. Jenny is a plain-English business and money coach who takes the fear out of finance – and there is no difficult maths involved and this isn’t Dragons Den!
The session will explore whether your business is financially viable for your circumstances and show you how to record what you earn and spend in your business, manage your cash flow and prepare for tax and National Insurance. You will also learn how to keep digital records, separate business and personal finances, and build good financial habits that will support you throughout your self-employed career.
