Key to Success: Execute
       Getting Things Done (GTD)
            The SCRUM Way
               • Do every task that comes at you in 2
                 min or less
      GTD      • Anything else is put on the calendar
                 with start and end dates
               • You are allowed to “renegotiate”



               • Be accountable to someone else
                 weekly
     SCRUM     • 3 Questions: 1) What did I accomplish,
                 2) What am I going to accomplish next,
                 3) What I’m stuck on

Financially Feasible:
Why do I need the Big 3?
•   Smart business people know

•   Do projected and actual statements monthly for 1-3
    years

•   Don’t be a “bean counter,” but do count your beans

•   If you don't know how your money is moving, you
    won't know how you are doing

•   3 views on the financial health of your business
What’s the dif?
• "Big   3" Review to Remember:

1.    Income Statement shows profit for the
      period of time displayed

2.    Cash Flow shows if you have cash to pay your
      bills for the period of time displayed

3.    Balance Sheet shows how much your
      company is worth as a snapshot in time
What is an Income Statement?

• IncomeStatement (or Profit and Loss or P&L)
 shows how profitable your company is

• Profit
      = all of your revenue - all of your
 expenses

• Profit
       matters because any profit that is
 gained goes to the business's owners
What is a Cash Flow Statement?
•   Shows if you have the cash to meet your bills when
    you need to

•   Different from the Income Statement
     • Cash flow is not “interested” in profit
     • Cash flow is “interested” in cash
     • Any kind of cash from anywhere


•    Shows the cash coming in for the month and the
    cash going out for the month

•   If you subtract the cash going out and come up short,
    you will need to get more cash
What is a Balance Sheet?

• Snapshot     in time of how much your company is
 worth

• What    your company owns, which are its assets

• What    your company owes, which are its liabilities

• Gives   your owner's equity or net worth
   •   Net worth = assets (own) - liabilities (owe).
Let’s Review
•3 views of your company’s financial health are
 important:
1. Income shows whether your company is profitable
   (revenue – costs) (leaving money for you, the
   owner)
2. Cash shows whether your company has money to
   pay its bills when needed (any cash – bills)
3. Balance sheet shows how much your company is
   worth (own – owe)

Editor's Notes

  1. If you are making a profit, most would judge your business as successful, as long as you are working toward growth as well. The Income Statement only “cares” if your company is making extra money (profit) to make the owners rich after paying for everything. It doesn't “care” about when and how things are paid for.
  2. Negative net worth will not make you rich.
  3. Now, go move mountains!-Dr. Sauers
