Kinsella Group Director Helps Chicagoland Entrepreneurs Improve Financial Modeling News Release - For Immediate Release [Chicago, Illinois - February 16, 2006] William R. Snow, Director, M&A of Chicago-based Kinsella Group, a boutique investment bank and business advisory group, recently presented a seminar at the Chicagoland Entrepreneurial Center (CEC) entitled "How To Create Your Very Own Entrepreneurial Financial Model." Co-sponsored by the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, the United States Small Business Administration and the City of Chicago Department of Planning and Development, the February 14th, 2006 event provided area entrepreneurs with an opportunity to gain critical insights into key accounting principles and the development of effective financial-modeling tools. In his fast-paced and often irreverent presentation, Mr. Snow went beyond the typical recitation of accounting and bookkeeping minutiae. Rather, he helped entrepreneurs cut to the core of basic financial-modeling and reporting principles, then demonstrated how this in-depth knowledge of their own companies can serve as a solid foundation for future growth. Supported by electronic and paper-based, real-world examples, Mr. Snow covered topics of importance to emerging entrepreneurs and business owners, including forecasting techniques, business planning methods, identifying and approaching potential investors, and developing effective financial presentations.
