New Sitting with Sister’s episode!

Before 2021, we wanted to sit down and talk with someone knowledgable on money and personal finances. Who better than our very own co-founder, Linda Karressy, also known as the owner of Insight Financial Group, LLC. located in Indianapolis! Linda gave some insight into a few topics that all business owners and entrepreneurs should be well versed in, but are still struggling with day-to-day. For example, deciding between hiring a CFO, accountant, or bookkeeper, what banks look for before lending out loans, and much more! Check out her interview here.

Sitting with Sisters Host, Mariah’s MBA Insight of the Day
During my time thus far in Anderson’s MBA program, there has been a lot of key takeaways that have stuck with me that I would like to begin sharing with you ladies! On the topic of finance, one tip is to begin researching and understanding accounting ratios: liquidity, asset turnover, profitability, etc. All of these ratios come from your balance sheet and are what most banks assess when deciding on if they should lend out a loan to your business or not. These ratios can be extremely helpful internally, as well, when trying to gain a better understanding of how you and your company are doing and how you will continue to do in times of crisis.
