“Taylor's presentation took a complex task, that potentially feels like homework, and presented it in a clear manner that made it simple to understand and implement. In addition the class taught one how to re-examine how they think about their business model.”

“Great overview of financial modeling. Taylor's attitude positions modeling as a tool and something to be comfortable approaching. You leave with a great model in hand and understanding of how to use it to help build your business better.”

“Taylor was great! Knowledgeable, experienced, open to all questions and welcoming for all levels. Great communication skills, and able to explain concepts clearly. Caveat: People should be aware that this is a very introductory class to financial modelling, and due to time constraints only the basics can be covered. It is also geared specifically towards entrepreneurs of tech start-ups, as oppose to other types of start-ups. ”

“One of the best classes I've ever taken. The financial model excel template is probably the most valuable takeaway I've been given in a class, ever. Taylor broke everything down and explained in a way that entrepreneurs can use and understand. He also took TONS of questions and was very helpful. I wish I had taken this class earlier! ”

“Taylor makes modeling easy. Not that it is ever that easy, but he makes you understand that it is more about the flow and process then the actual model. It helped me quite a bit in creating my model.”

“This is a great class about a great model. I recommend trying to use the model before the class (Taylor emails it to you a couple of days ahead) so you can ask him good questions in class. If you don't know anything about financial modeling this is a great intro, and even if you do it is a nice reminder and could be that extra push you need to get cranking on the financial model for your new startup.”

“Taylor has a great no-nonsense brass tacks kind of attitude that's perfect for this stuff. When students veered off the road, he got the class back on course in no time. The topic is pretty complex and the class pretty short, but I got a lot out of it and I'd recommend Taylor's class to anyone interested in modeling the finances for their startup. The take-away spreadsheet is a great bonus, too. ”
