What you’ll learn:

How to calculate and monitor your burn rate.
Practical methods to extend runway without stalling growth.
Simple forecasting hacks to know how long your cash will last.
Red flags in cash management that founders often miss.
Decision-making frameworks for when survival is at stake.
