You made a plan back in January. By July, your business probably looks nothing like it.
In this episode, I walk through mid-year financial reforecasting for small business owners, including a 3-step process for updating a budget using year-to-date data. I share the boardroom accountability standard, three questions I use to evaluate what happened, why it happened, and what to do next. I also share two real client examples, one who adjusted her plan after a team member left and one who had to build new infrastructure after hitting her revenue goal early. I explain why revising your budget mid-year is normal and does not mean you failed.
In this episode of CEO Numbers Network, I break down the reforecasting tool I've used every year since my corporate CFO days to lead the back half of the year with confidence.
You will learn the three-question boardroom standard, the signs that mean it's time to update your budget, and the three-step process for reforecasting your numbers.
If you have ever felt like your original budget doesn't match your business anymore, this episode gives you the tool to update it without feeling like you failed.
