Financial Planning When Your Business Starts to Scale

There is a particular kind of financial mess that only appears once a business starts doing well. Revenue goes up, complexity increases, and the informal systems that worked at the beginning start producing errors. This course is for people at that inflection point.

What changes at this stage

When you are small, a rough budget and a good memory are almost enough. When you have employees, multiple revenue streams, or clients on retainer, they are not. The top mistakes of business beginners and how to avoid them take on a different character here — the mistakes are more expensive and slower to surface.

This masterclass covers financial structures that support growth: departmental budgeting, scenario planning, unit economics, and the point at which you genuinely need a CFO versus a good accountant. These are not the same thing.

Practical focus

Instructor Agnieszka Tur-Bloch has worked with businesses in the 2M to 15M PLN revenue range for the past decade. The course draws directly from that experience. Sessions include structured peer review, where participants present their own financial models and receive specific, honest feedback.

Format

Eight weekly sessions, live, with a small group of no more than 12 participants. The small cohort is deliberate — the work requires real discussion, not passive watching.

This course is educational in nature and does not constitute financial or legal advice.
