Noosa business owners can take advantage of the advice of five financial experts who have been invited to attend the next Business Mentoring Noosa (BMN) educational and networking event, Improve your financial foresight, at The J on Wednesday 30 October.

“We know that most small business owners aren’t financial experts, and that their resources are limited. So this event will be giving you practical advice on essential financial skills,” BMN’s David Gibbons said.

“You’ll have the opportunity to interact with our five expert hosts in small group sessions, to network with other small businesses from the Noosa area, and to meet some of our mentors.”

The event will be opened by Noosa Mayor Frank Wilkie and attendees will be interacting with five expert guests – Michael McManus (Rockwall Partners), Shelley Lovegrove (Pandanus Bookkeepers), Guy Hamilton (banker, director and business coach), Bill McDonnell (UniSC), and Tami Harriott (UniSC and BMN mentor).

Topics to be covered include making working capital work for you; how to get more out of your accounting apps (and your bookkeeper); improving your value proposition for difficult times; the importance of a solid business plan; and using your financial statements to make better business decisions.

In order to enable guests to interact more closely with experts the event will be run cafe style with five small-group table sessions on rotation with experts. Business Mentoring Noosa is a voluntary organisation that offers experienced mentors at a nominal cost for business owners.

The cost for the event is only $59, which will be credited back to you if you decide to join BMN’s 12 month mentoring program (current cost $195).
