The Workshop Journey

One Day, Structured for Real Work

Every hour of the workshop is purposeful. Here's what you'll do from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave with your completed cash map.

Before the Workshop

What to Prepare

You don't need to be an accountant. You just need to know your own business. Here's what to bring.

01

Register

Contact us to confirm your spot. We'll send you a short pre-workshop preparation guide — one page, plain language.

02

Gather Your Numbers

Before you arrive, note down your typical weekly sales days, your main supplier payment dates, and your recurring weekly expenses. Rough numbers are fine.

03

Bring Your Phone or Notebook

If you prefer digital tools, bring your phone or tablet. If you prefer paper, just bring yourself — we provide all printed materials.

04

Arrive at Benito Juárez 63

Workshop starts at 9:00am. We recommend arriving 15 minutes early for setup and coffee. Parking is available nearby.

Workshop Day

The Day's Schedule

Eight hours structured around building, not listening. The ratio is roughly 20% explanation and 80% hands-on work with your own numbers.

Time Activity What You'll Do
9:00 – 9:30 Welcome & Framing We establish the core concept: the difference between revenue timing and cash timing. You'll identify which version of the problem applies to your specific business.
9:30 – 11:00 Mapping Cash Entries You map every source of incoming cash for a typical week — sales by day, collections, advances, transfers — and record the actual day each arrives, not just the amount.
11:00 – 11:15 Break Coffee and stretch. Facilitators available for individual questions.
11:15 – 13:00 Mapping Cash Exits You document every outgoing payment — suppliers, rent, payroll, services, taxes — with the exact day each is due. This is often where the "aha moment" begins.
13:00 – 14:00 Working Lunch Informal discussion over lunch. Participants often share observations about patterns they've spotted in their own maps. Facilitators circulate and help.
14:00 – 15:30 Gap Identification You overlay your entries and exits to see your net daily cash position. For most participants, this is the first time they've seen their cash rhythm on a single page.
15:30 – 15:45 Break Short break. Individual review time with your facilitator if needed.
15:45 – 17:00 Tools & Weekly Habit You set up your preferred tool (paper or phone), learn the 15-minute weekly update process, and leave with everything configured and ready to use on Monday morning.
After the Workshop

What You Take Home

Your Completed Cash Map

A completed weekly cash map built with your own real numbers. Not a template — your actual map, ready to use and update every week from the Monday after the workshop.

Digital Template

A simple spreadsheet pre-configured with your business structure, accessible on your phone or any device.

Printed Worksheets

Physical reference sheets for the paper-based approach. Designed to be used at your desk every week without needing any technology.

Follow-Up Access

After the workshop, you can contact us by email or phone if you have questions while using your tools in your business. We want your map to actually work — not just sit in a folder.

Clarity

The most important thing you take home is a clear understanding of your own cash rhythm — something you'll carry into every financial decision you make.

Common Questions

Before You Register

No. This workshop is specifically designed for people who are not accountants. We don't use accounting terminology, we don't prepare financial statements, and we don't teach bookkeeping. Everything is in plain operational language — the kind you already use to run your business day to day.
Rough numbers are fine. You need a general sense of: which days of the week you typically receive the most sales, when your main suppliers are due, when your biggest recurring expenses come out, and roughly how much each is. You don't need exact figures — the map works with estimates that you can refine over time.
No. The workshop is a single full day. You leave with a completed tool and a clear process for maintaining it yourself. There's no ongoing enrollment or subscription. Some participants choose to attend again after a year when their business has changed significantly — but that's entirely optional.
Yes. We work with participants who manage single locations and those who oversee multiple branches. During the session, we'll help you decide whether to build one consolidated map or separate maps per location — depending on how your cash actually flows between them.
That's completely fine. We have a full paper-based version of the workshop that uses printed worksheets only. Many participants prefer this — especially those who work in environments where phones aren't always practical. Both approaches produce the same result: a working weekly cash map.
