Join us for the Fairfield Financial Literacy Workshop, an essential event for small business owners in today's ever changing economic landscape.

In light of the current economic climate and labour shortages, being financially literate has never been more crucial. With rising inflation, supply chain disruptions, and a tight labour market, small business owners face many challenges in managing their finances effectively.

Financial literacy empowers you to navigate these turbulent times, make informed decisions, and ensure the long-term sustainability of your business. By understanding key financial concepts and strategies, you'll be better equipped to optimise cash flow, manage debt, and adapt to rapidly changing market conditions. This knowledge is vital for not only surviving but thriving in an economy where every financial decision can have far-reaching consequences.

This workshop will feature an exceptional panel of experts, including:

  • A small business banker
  • An experienced accountant
  • A successful small business owner
  • A knowledgeable branch manager

These professionals will break down essential banking concepts and strategies tailored specifically for small businesses. You'll gain invaluable insights on:

  • Banking basics and how to leverage them for your business
  • Best practices for effective financial management
  • Real-life experiences and lessons from a thriving small business owner
  • General advice during our interactive Q&A session
