Finance Director offers free business surgery to ‘push for growth’

This month, office space provider, Basepoint will be welcoming businesses in the Hampshire area as they come to receive free financial management advice from Finance Director Charles Griffiths FCA.

A huge PAYE/ NI liability, growth concerns, an expensive overdraft facility, mounting debts, cashflow problems and internal management disputes – all reflect a nightmare situation but one that highlights scenarios management teams are faced with today.

Over the last five years, nothing has been harder for small and medium sized businesses than maintaining a tight grip on finances and remaining efficient in the harsh economic climate. Though key strategies are relatively easy to implement, a good number of businesses are either unaware of these rules or unable to put them to effective use.

EFM, provider of Part Time Finance Directors and Non Exec Directors is helping to organise this free event for management teams and business owners in conjunction with Basepoint to highlight the benefits that excellent financial management systems can bring to any business as they aim to survive, succeed and remain profitable in a challenging economic environment.

‘Push For growth- Can you afford to have a Finance Director, can you afford not to?’ will be hosted by Finance Director Charles Griffiths from EFM. This will start with an initial interactive session for management teams and key decision makers with discussions around process improvement and bespoke SME support that matches the needs, size and aspirations of a small business. Bookings for free business surgery consultations to address specific and confidential business issues can subsequently be made.

There will also be networking opportunities at the event and a bottle of Champagne for one lucky winner.

Whether you are just looking to manage cashflow, source funding, turn round a declining business or just understand your financials, where your cash comes from and goes to, this event is perfect for you.
