| Summary: | This book combines logical business principles and strategies with a step-by-step methodology for planning and modeling a company and solving specific business problems. You'll learn to create operational and financial models in Excel that describe the workings of your company in quantitative terms. Sawyer shows how to break your company down into basic functional and operational components that can be modeled. The result is a financial model that you can literally take to the bank or bring to local angel investors to receive the funding you need to launch your business or a new product. You will learn how to: raise capital for startup or any stage of growth; plan projects and new initiatives; make astute business decisions, including go/no-go assessments; analyze ROI on your product development and marketing expenditures; streamline operations, manage budgets, improve efficiency, and reduce costs; value the business when it is time to cash out or merge. --
