Companies a lot of times fail because they overlooked the basics of running a business. Startups, too, often fail to execute the basics and create pitfalls later on.
Accounting is your business doctor - it tracks how your business’s been doing lately, finds out root causes and plans a path for you to get well. No companies can grow and be viable in the long run without proper accounting management. It reveals everything from sales - such as customer adoption rate, operations - such as operating inefficiencies, to strategic issues - such as positioning and branding.
This presentation will touch important accounting basics and classic business failure cases studies. It’ll also give out useful tips for business owners.
很多时候公司的失败是由于未做到管理生意的基本面而造成的。未作这些基本点的初创公司在创业初期不会感觉到有什么问题，但是没多久就会造成事后的悲催。
财务是你生意上的医生 —— 它统计着你生意的近况，诊断出问题的根源并且设计出一条改善你“健康”的道路。现今没有任何公司可以不使用现代财务管理工具而可以长期健康的生长。财务工具能帮你扯去公司运营表面现象的面纱，暴露一切问题：从销售的客户获取率，运营的效率，到战略上的问题比如定位和品牌。
这次的交流内容会涉及财务基础（针对非财务专业），现实生活中经典的公司案例（北美地区公司案例），然后会给初创公司的创业者们有用的tips.
