“Sylvia Inks presents the basics of business financials in a clear, straight-forward manner. Every start-up businessperson should follow Sylvia’s advice to avoid frustrating and costly mistakes. Audience was fully engaged and asked a wide range of follow-up questions, which Sylvia was fully prepared to answer.” – Gary Becker, Director/BIC, KW Commercial
“I have seen the information that Sylvia presented in her signature talk, “7 Secrets and Tools to Achieve a Profitable Business,” before (at MBA and various management/businesses courses), but I liked how she presented it. The topics can be complex but she made it simple and easy to understand for the group. While we both know that the topics can get complicated very quickly, the amount of information she gave was just right to get people thinking about their situations and hopefully look for the answers they need.” – Dr. Jeremy G. Roberts
“Sylvia Inks is my go-to guest speaker when covering the financial topics in my Business Planning Courses at Wake Technical Community College. Her slides are professional and engaging, and her command of the subject matter is impressive – especially in the way she draws out the students to interact with her throughout the presentation. She does a great job highlighting the key steps to financial success for small business owners, including how to properly store and manage financial records.” – Jim Joyce, Sales Partners, Inc.
“I have seen Sylvia present her signature talk, “7 Secrets to Financial Success for Small Business Owners” at least five times. She always begins with a story of a small business owner which immediately captures my attention. These real life experiences with clients lead her to write the book, Small Business Finance for the Busy Entrepreneur – Blueprint for Building a Solid, Profitable Business. Each time I hear her, I am reminded of the business practices that I am doing well and others that need to change. I always learn something new by listening to the audience’s experiences and questions. Through Sylvia’s advice, I knew that I needed to make immediate changes in my photography business, including switching to a legal entity (LLC) instead of operating as a sole proprietorship and outsourcing bookkeeping to the firm that already prepares our taxes.” – Catherine Davis, Catherine Davis Photography
“The audience was highly engaged throughout Sylvia Inks’ signature presentation, ‘The 7 Secrets to Financial Success for Small Business Owners.’ She gave practical tips that existing and aspiring entrepreneurs could act on immediately. She also gave relevant, real life examples and stories to captivate the audience and motivate them to understand the importance of each secret that she shared. She has received excellent evaluation ratings from the three SCORE workshops that she’s already completed, among the highest that I have seen in the five years that I’ve been with SCORE. Based on the positive feedback, I’ve received additional requests to have Sylvia present to other SCORE locations and partners.” – Bill Wagner, Manager Workshops (Library), SCORE
“The first thing I noticed was how confident Sylvia was at the front of the room. I was engaged through the entire presentation as Sylvia is very knowledgeable about small business financial planning and entrepreneurship. While I have had a few small businesses over the years, I came away with new ideas that I quickly implemented.” – David L Matthews, Founder, Answers For Less
“Being that I am planning my business, I feel lucky to have Sylvia’s tips now, so I don’t have to try to backtrack and implement them retroactively. Particularly the information regarding her recommended banks was surprising/most helpful. Sylvia made a great point about tracking business expenses, and I can see how it can easily be overlooked. She gave great tips on taking the time to get organized, which means more money in the bank!” – Deanna Rich, aspiring entrepreneur
“I had the privilege of hosting Sylvia Inks as a speaker for my Living Well Community. Her joy of small business finances is inspiring as she leads her audience through simple steps to organize their finances, saving time and money. Taking action on even a few of her ideas has helped me streamline my attention to my own business finances, and has reduced significant stress surrounding taxes.” – Robin Thomas, Founder of Living Well Connections
“Thanks a lot for the excellent speech to share with very useful Top Secrets & Tools information at NCCBA January luncheon event!” – Mary Kong, VP of NC Chinese Business Association
