Is your grazing business providing you with more than just a job?

Business EDGE is a comprehensive two-day workshop for owners and managers of grazing enterprises.

It’s specifically designed to improve financial literacy and business skills.

Business EDGE workshops have been run across northern Australia since 2010 with almost 500 participants completing the course so far. This course follows from that experience and has been modified to have specific relevance to southern Australia, while still retaining all the key financial and business principles.

Each participant will receive a full set of background and course notes, a hardcopy of the PowerPoint presentation used for teaching, and a USB drive with a suite of spreadsheet based decision support tools used in the course.

The course is taught on a case study basis to bring more meaning to the underlying principles and with all the concepts taught and discussed well-grounded in a practical example from the case study.

What will you take home from The Business EDGE?

During the two days of The Business EDGE you will acquire the knowledge and skills to…

  • Why your income tax return is of limited value in business decision making

  • Understanding the key profit drivers for the whole business, the herd and the flock
  • How to manage financial risk
  • How to allocate capital in a rational manner for a better return on the investment

Comprehensive course notes are provided, along with decision support spreadsheet tools to help you apply the material to your business. Follow up is available to all participants.
