SUMMARY:Coaching SMEs From Invisible to Investable with ONOW’s DayTwo
DESCRIPTION:This is a Pollinate Impact Members-Only webinar. \nThe Pollinators’ Toolkit is a members-only event series that shares practical tools\, tested frameworks\, and real-world lessons to strengthen our support for impact incubators. \nInformal record-keeping is a significant barrier to entrepreneurs’ access to finance. Most small businesses worldwide use receipts\, notebooks\, and memory\, making them invisible to lenders and hard for impact incubators to assess or support. \nIn this hands-on Pollinator’s Toolkit workshop\, Pollinate Impact member ONOW will showcase how its fintech platform turns everyday SME financial activity captured informally in photos\, chats\, and voice notes into clean\, dated financial records and lender-ready signals. Already used by more than 600 businesses\, DayTwo generates weekly income statements and daily cash flow visibility. The tool helps incubators see real financial health\, coach with more precision\, and connect entrepreneurs to capital with less friction. \nIf you want to move from\n\n\nGuessing at your clients’ financial health based on incomplete or outdated information \n\n\nStruggling to connect entrepreneurs to lenders due to a lack of credible documentation \n\n\nCoaching without visibility into real-time cash flow or profitability \n\n\nBeing unable to demonstrate measurable financial outcomes to your funders and stakeholders\, this session is for you. \n\n\n  \nWhat to expect:\n\n\nIntroduction to behaviour-based financial tracking: See how DayTwo converts messy\, informal records into structured data and credit signals that lenders recognise. \n\n\nLearn how daily habits become investability signals: A live exercise contrasting paper tracking with digital records\, showing how simple behavioural nudges translate into financial credibility. \n\n\nActionable coaching frameworks: Walk away with practical tools for interpreting profit and cash flow\, plus a hands-on demo showing the platform in action. \n\n\nSpeakers:\n\nMatthew Wallace\, Co-founder\, ONOW Myanmar\, Co-founder and CEO\, ONOW Ascent Inc\nNathan Temeyer\, Co-founder\, ONOW Ascent Inc\n\n———————————————————— \nThe Pollinators’ Toolkit Series\nThe Pollinators’ Toolkit series is designed to equip impact enablers with practical\, field-tested tools and resources to strengthen organisational capacity and improve how you support entrepreneurs. We know there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to enabling impact\, so this series showcases adaptable models\, frameworks\, and practices that you can make your own. \nWhether you’re looking for financial sustainability models\, mentoring strategies\, or impact measurement frameworks\, the Pollinator’s Toolkit is here to help you strengthen your operations while staying true to your work.
