Hey guys,
I've spent a lot of time getting decent at sales, networking, outsourcing and many other things that (I would hope) are going to help me on my entrepreneurial journey. One thing that I haven't spent much time on is understanding how to use and when to use business math. For instance, I recently learned how to determine your gross margin as opposed to a markup % and business valuation - which I didn't know how to do before.
My question is simply what type of math should I know If I want to be a successful business owner - math isn't very intuitive to me so any direction will help. Also, are there any resources out there that would be able to teach me exactly what I need to know? (websites, youtube channels, etc).
Thanks in advance!
