Most business owners know their numbers are important. Far fewer actually feel confident about them.

Not because they are bad at business. Because financial planning has always felt like something that belongs to accountants and spreadsheet experts, full of formulas and terminology that seems designed to keep everyone else out of the conversation.

AI has changed that completely.

This session shows you how to use Google Sheets and Gemini to build financial models and forecasts that give you a genuine understanding of where your business is headed, without an accounting degree, without a financial consultant, and without spending hours staring at a spreadsheet trying to figure out what it is telling you.

We will cover:

• How to build a basic cash flow forecast from scratch in Google Sheets, the single most important financial tool any business owner can have, showing you exactly when money is coming in, when it is going out, and when you need to pay attention

• How to use Gemini to write, explain and troubleshoot formulas so you are never stuck staring at a broken spreadsheet again

• How to build a simple revenue projection model with best case, worst case and base case scenarios so you can make decisions with a clear picture of the range of outcomes in front of you

• How to set up a budget tracker that compares what you planned to spend against what you actually spent, month by month, so you always know where you stand

• How to ask Gemini to analyze your numbers in plain English, surface the trends you might be missing, and flag the things that need your attention

Every business owner deserves to feel in control of their finances. Not dependent on someone else to interpret the numbers for them. Not surprised at the end of the quarter by something that was visible in the data all along.

This session puts you back in the driver's seat.
