Do you know what investors and lenders are looking for? We'll connect you with the best experts who can walk you through your financing options and help you refine your pitch deck and showcase your business value, to prepare for funding opportunities.

Work with our experts to find solutions to your small business questions on the following topics:
Before doing any financial projections, you need a clear pricing strategy. Understand the true cost of producing your products and services. Set prices that meet your financial goals. Address common pricing challenges, such as rising costs and shifts in customer demand, and explore effective pricing strategies that maximize profitability while maintaining competitiveness.
Learn how to estimate business revenue from various income streams. Analyze your products and services, customer segments, and sales channels to uncover trends and seasonal patterns. This helps entrepreneurs better manage their business finances, allocate marketing resources and time more effectively, plan for inventory and staffing, and set achievable business growth goals.
All entrepreneurs need capital for their business, whether they raise capital, borrow money, or invest their own funds. Define the amount of capital needed to grow your business, get feedback on your financial plan, and learn how to highlight your business strengths when you present to lenders, investors, or potential business partners.
Once you set your pricing strategy and estimate your sales projections, it's time to check if your pricing makes sense when compared with your business expenses. Learn how to calculate your break-even point and forecast profitability using a Profit & Loss statement. Analyze different financial scenarios and evaluate the potential impact of your decisions, like entering a new market, launching a new product line, or adjusting your pricing strategy.

Receive expert legal advice to understand how different funding options impact business ownership, compliance obligations, and your business’s future growth.

Stay aware and keep up with basic reporting and filing obligations, like annual reports. Receive expert advice on when and how to update your legal structure.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Cassandre Davilmar
Cassandre Davilmar opened Lakou Cafe to host local art shows, open mic nights, cultural conversation groups, and concerts for the community. But in March 2020 sales decreased and they had to close the doors due to COVID-19. Later that year, Cassandre received a one-time $5,000 grant to add to their PPP loan. Cassandre worked with Start Small Think Big’s finance program on projections, planning, and bookkeeping. Our legal and marketing programs assisted them with conducting business online, lease review and negotiation, entity selection, trademark, and digital marketing strategy. Ultimately, Cassandre saved their business and reopened Lakou, experiencing a 38% revenue increase.
