Business Value Forecasting
Dear Accountant,
My previous posts have dealt with how to engage with business owners about their business performance and its effects on them personally. We’ve looked at the psychology at work and how you use Runagood® Technology to show them where specifically they are underperforming and what that’s costing them in lost sales, profits, value, and lifestyle.
You’ve got them interested in where to go from here and broadly, how, so let’s forecast and test the feasibility of their options before committing to a plan and project.
This is the Forecasting Tool. It works automatically off the existing Business Dashboard® outputs and the algorithm runs comparisons against Runagood®’s national small business (SIC) database to set out value scenarios over time. Your client can choose a range of exit values at given dates and get a feasibility score:
Red – not possible without new funding.
Amber – possible but harder work than to date.
Green – straightforward by taking relatively simple actions.
By choosing an option, your client is now committed to you. So next post will be how to contract a project.
With kind regards from
Duncan
