    About this module...

    Managing money might sound serious, but it’s one of the most empowering skills an entrepreneur can learn. In this session, you’ll discover how even the biggest brands, from Apple and Microsoft to Gymshark and SBTV, started with tiny budgets and smart decisions. 
    You’ll learn how to plan your spending, build a realistic start-up budget, explore different ways to fund your idea, and understand the basics of profit, loss, and break-even.

    This module is packed with interactive tasks, quick-fire checks, and a hands-on budget builder activity designed to help you take your idea from dream to doable. Whether your future goal is to launch a clothing brand, build an app, run a food stall, or start a micro-business, this session will give you basics of financial confidence to use when you're ready to begin.

    Let’s dive in and learn how to make every pound work for your idea — because smart money decisions today can build big opportunities tomorrow.
