In this episode, Alecia sits down with Jenn Baas, fractional CFO and facilitator of the Financial Leadership Lab at The Conscious Edge. Based on Jenn’s experience working with entrepreneurs, a majority find themselves off-track from what they predicted back in January by mid-year. But there's a fix. A mid-year audit gives you three things: visibility into what's actually working, two quarters to make corrections, and data to replace the guessing. Even if you’re finding yourself in a windfall, you can still get blind-sided. This is the real conversation every entrepreneur needs to have mid-year so there are no surprises come December.
