Financial and HR Class Series

We’re kicking off our Financial Empowerment Series with a workshop every contractor and small business owner needs.

Let’s be honest:

• Landing big projects — but no cash reserves
• Constant cash flow stress
• Borrowing from one job to cover another
• No assets to leverage
• Strong work… tight finances

You’re not alone. And more importantly — it’s fixable.

This workshop will show you how to:
✔️ Build real cash reserves
✔️ Stop the cycle of robbing Peter to pay Paul
✔️ Understand your numbers
✔️ Position your business for growth and access to capital

Strong contractors deserve strong financial foundations.

Join us.

Faye Burch Training Center for Excellence
4444 SE 27th Avenue
Portland, OR 97202

Location: 5:00-7:00
