Financial Fluency Coaching

Are you tired of struggling to understand or communicate financial information?

Unless you were born with an understanding of accounting, financial statements, and individual metrics, it takes training and education to make sense of financial concepts. But it doesn't take years and it needn't be boring. In fact, we think it can be fun to take control of financial information and focus on the activities that help you achieve your business goals.

Whether you want individual or team coaching, we can help you make sense of financial information. We have four different options for individuals and businesses.  

1.  Financial Fluency™ coaching for managers

In order to take your winery and your career to the highest level, you must understand the language of business. In this confidential  one-on-one coaching session, we’ll help you unravel the accounting code using either a sample winery or your winery’s financial statements. We'll provide special tools, books, and ideas to help you master the numbers. We'll walk you through the basics and give you some insights into the key issues faced by wineries. Once you make sense of financial information, you will be able to apply your knowledge in achieving your winery's financial results.

Click here to schedule your confidential coaching session and gain the knowledge you need to make the numbers work in your business.
