About Helping Customers Compare Financing Options

Sometimes your prospect is already sold and just needs to figure out the best way to pay. Other times, they need to be convinced that your project is something they could afford to do at all. In either setting, you should be able to “do the numbers” and confidently demonstrate the pros and cons of each financing approach: paying with cash today, phasing the project in as cash becomes available, financing the entire project now, or taking an “as a service” approach to implementing the project.

This 60-minute session will demonstrate how to use a concise one-page financial analysis that not only shows all the cash inflows and outflows and when each occurs, but also delivers financial metrics like net present value (NPV) and savings-to-investment ratio (SIR) that will enable more confident decision-making.

After completing this course,
you will be able to:

  • Understand the shortcomings of simple payback period and other popular financial metrics
  • Communicate the merits of using more reliable financial metrics like net present value and savings-to-investment ratio when evaluating expense-reducing capital projects
  • Compare the costs and benefits of various project funding options
