What is bad modelling costing you?
Now is the time where numbers are (frantically) crunched and (last minute) spreadsheets are being created. The end of the financial year is looming.
Oh, how I love numbers and the stories they convey…
And of course, I love Excel.
Except for making myself a cup of tea, I use Excel for nearly everything. Ask my kids, they can confirm.
Knowing how much a good workbook can add to your business and your decision-making – it is vital to get it right.
And I also know how much a bad model might cost you.
The risk is huge of making an error in your assumptions that then leads to a wrong result and might lead to a very bad decision – especially when it is all knitted with a hot needle.
That’s why I wrote this White Paper “What Is Bad Modelling Costing You?”
You can download it here – completely free.
In there I am talking about:
- Common mistakes
- Ideas to make it better
- The ultimate costs of bad modelling
- Roadmap to avoid the typical pitfalls
- Examples of famous spreadsheets gone wrong

“The changes Jürgen made have resulted in a substantial time saving and improved the reliability of our process allowing us to focus on the analysis rather than the collation and manipulation of data. Jürgen isn't just an Excel guy but really understand process flows and the business outcomes. Thanks again.”
