What attendees have said...

I see the workshop as an excellent investment as I have gained a lot more knowledge and feel it will dramatically change our business.

The workshop has given me the tools to scrutinise our business without emotion and make informed decisions. I would encourage other producers to enroll.

Extremely relevant to rural business managers to get an understanding of the economic sustainability of their business

I came in with a below basic knowledge of business and am leaving with the confidence to really analyse our business in terms of its economic value.

The ability to now improve decision marking regarding where $ to be spent and how to improve kg/AE

Good, relatively small investment considering the benefits that could be achieved

If I implement half of what I've learned today I'll be way ahead

Incentive to analyse business performance, gives more meaningful platform to discuss options with accountant & bank managers

Invaluable return on investment

Gives one a different way to look at business, i.e. AE, labour, cost of production

This course provided excellent tools for learning more about our own business. Well worth it.

Excellent being able to weigh up the cost involved and the income it will bring

Worthwhile, I should be able to adopt most of this to my situation.

Well worth the time and effort, cleared up a lot of grey areas

Very good investment in the future for myself as a employee and very beneficial to my employers

Course was exceptional, given me the tools to continue to learn and develop better business skills and improve financial analysis and ultimately profitability

Very good. Got an overall idea of what makes business tick and what can destroy them very quickly. Greater understanding of the current position of business in the Northern Cattle industry

Extremely important to understand past and future direction. Will assist with future plans and intended direction of new plans, understanding benefits.

It was good to be reassured that we are on the right track, better skills to make better decisions for our business

It is good to understand why we need this information and be able to implement it and share what learnt with other family members

Definitely value for money going forward with our business plans

Gives me a whole new way to look at ways to interpret & deliver information and believe it

Worthwhile, plenty to think about, interesting to hear others opinion

Well spent better understanding of bigger picture

Great value - because its industry specific and presenters are industry specialists

The improvements we will make will far outweigh investment

We are a young business and this will give me the info to see where we are at and how we are going to meet the plans that we have for the future. Completely invaluable

Workshop is a necessity well worth the time and money

It has dramatically improved my knowledge over a short time and will change the way we manage our business for the better

Well worthwhile the investment in this workshop is small compared to the potential financial gain from the content learnt.

Fairly small investment for the changes you could make

Very good and would recommend the course to other producers.

Essential for producers

Very helpful with good solutions and tools to use

It has been a very informative workshop and money/time and travel well invested.

Thought provoking. Glad there were three of us there to promote further discussion at home

Worth the 2 days should have done it before

Very strong return on investment

Extremely worthwhile exceeded my expectations on value for time & money

Fantastic - regret not doing it earlier. Keen to analyse our own business and focus on improving. Will pay for itself with implementation at home.

Making more educated decisions to move in a more profitable direction, time at workshop will stop wasted time at home. Second testimonial from another client

A fantastic investment of time if you truly want to gain financial literacy and not pass the responsibility to others.
