Building Your Startup's Financial Foundation

Most startups fail because they run out of money, not ideas. We teach you how to build realistic budgets, manage cash flow during those critical first years, and make financial decisions that actually support growth instead of stunting it.

How qiravalento Started

We've been through the startup grind ourselves. Here's what we learned along the way.

2018

The Beginning

Started in a shared workspace with three founders who'd each burned through their own startup funds. We knew there had to be a better way to handle early-stage finances.

2020

First Workshop Series

Ran our initial cash flow management workshops for 40 early founders in Canberra. The feedback was raw and honest, which helped us shape what actually mattered to people building companies from scratch.

2023

Structured Learning Programs

Launched comprehensive financial planning courses based on real startup scenarios we'd witnessed. Over 300 founders went through these programs in the first year, each bringing their own unique challenges to the table.

2026

Where We Are Now

Operating from our Aranda location, working with Australian founders who need practical financial guidance. We're focusing on what works in the real world, not just theory from textbooks.

Financial planning workshop session with startup founders

Cash Flow Reality

Learn to read your numbers before they become problems. We cover runway calculations, burn rate monitoring, and when to actually worry about your bank balance.

Startup financial strategy discussion

Fundraising Prep

Get your financials investor-ready. We walk through realistic projections, what investors actually look at, and how to present numbers that make sense.

Early-stage startup budgeting session

Early Stage Budgeting

Build budgets that flex with your startup's reality. We focus on practical allocation, knowing when to spend and when to hold back based on actual growth signals.

Common Financial Pitfalls We Address

Challenge

Running Out of Runway

Too many founders realize they're out of money when it's already too late. They've been watching revenue grow but forgot to track how fast they're spending.

Solution

Monthly Burn Analysis

We teach a simple tracking system you can check in 10 minutes. You'll know exactly how many months you have left and what levers you can pull if things get tight. No complex spreadsheets, just clarity.

Challenge

Unrealistic Projections

Founders build financial models based on best-case scenarios. Then reality hits and nothing matches their projections, making it impossible to plan ahead or make good decisions.

Solution

Scenario Planning

Build three versions of your financial future: realistic, conservative, and worst-case. You'll learn which assumptions are dangerous and how to stress-test your plans before committing resources.

Challenge

Pricing Too Low

New businesses often undercharge because they're afraid customers won't pay more. This creates a cycle where you're always scrambling for volume instead of building sustainable unit economics.

Solution

Value-Based Pricing

We walk through pricing models that reflect actual value delivered. You'll learn to test price points, understand your margins, and have conversations about cost that feel confident rather than apologetic.

I was building our product but completely avoiding the money side of things. The cash flow tracking we learned here gave me actual visibility into what was happening. Now I check our numbers weekly and can make decisions based on reality instead of guessing.
