42. How to Explain: The Balance Sheet

Join me at The CFO Accelerator Live in Dallas, TX, May 15-17, 2024. This is our conference that is exclusively for Fractional and Virtual CFOs!

The trick is explaining the Balance Sheet to them in terms that they can understand. 👉 In this episode, I'm going to show you how I explain The Balance Sheet to our CFO clients. I drop in some great examples and metaphors to make the Balance Sheet relatable and understandable for entrepreneurs that aren’t super financially savvy.
