Budget Like a Boss

You’ve heard it before, and you’ll hear it again:
“I’m sorry, not this month. The budget doesn’t allow for it.”
Pretty annoying when that happens. But you know it’s for the best, because it’s essential for a business to have a budget in place.

A budget isn’t an arbitrary constraint on your spending. It’s a detailed plan for your money, helping you decide the best thing to do with it. Knowing your budget frees you up to make better business decisions and helps keep you afloat.

Let’s face it, budgeting isn’t the most fascinating of subjects. Unless you love numbers, it’s always going to be a challenge to stop people dropping off, let alone engage them. So, we inserted a little humour and our trademark conversational style to carry the story. We follow someone who really needs to budget, and an assistant who helps them learn about it.

This short course introduces the concept of dealing with debt ‘snowballs’, and suggests a useful mnemonic to help the learner recall different tips to budget easily. We follow it up with an infographic as blended learning that can be referred to at the learners’ leisure when they require a refresher.
