Friends, we invite you to an online workshop with Oksana Ponomarenko on the topic: “Modelling the Desired Financial Result in the Furniture Business.”

15 October | 13:00 | Online

What exactly is the desired financial result — revenue? Profit? Dividends paid? Business value? Or return on invested capital?

During the workshop, we will discuss the strategic and operational approaches to assessing business performance and explore which operational indicators actually shape a company’s profit and cash flow.

At the heart of the workshop are 7 key levers that influence the financial performance of a real business:

🔹 price;
🔹 sales volume;
🔹 cost of goods sold;
🔹 fixed costs;
🔹 accounts receivable;
🔹 inventory;
🔹 accounts payable.

Using a dedicated simulator and simple, practical examples from manufacturing companies, we will model the effect of changing each of these levers by just 1% or 1 day.

What generates more profit — increasing prices or increasing sales? Offering a discount or reducing production costs? How do small changes in inventory, accounts receivable, or accounts payable affect the company’s cash position?

You will see the combined financial impact of small improvements on the overall business result.

This is how large, system-driven companies manage profit and cash flow: model — assess — implement.

Workshop participants will also have an individual opportunity to model the desired financial result for their own business free of charge.

Who is it for: owners, CEOs, and finance professionals of furniture and manufacturing companies.
