Cash-Flow Review

Know when money comes in, and when it has to go out.

A business can be busy and profitable on paper while still feeling tight from one month to the next.

A cash-flow review looks at the timing and patterns behind revenue and expenses so the owner can plan with a clearer picture of what is coming.

What the review covers

The patterns behind the balance.

  1. 01

    Revenue Patterns

    Look at when revenue actually arrives, including seasonality, payment terms and concentration.

  2. 02

    Operating Expenses

    Review the regular costs of running the business and how they move with activity.

  3. 03

    Cash-Flow Timing

    Identify the gaps between when money is earned and when it is available to use.

  4. 04

    Recurring Obligations

    Bring payroll, rent, subscriptions and other commitments into one view so nothing arrives unexpectedly.

  5. 05

    Planning Considerations

    Use what the review shows to inform decisions about hiring, purchases and timing.

When it makes sense

Common reasons owners ask for a review.

  • Revenue looks healthy, but cash still feels tight
  • Seasonal swings are hard to plan around
  • It's hard to see which obligations are coming due and when
  • Hiring or equipment decisions depend on cash the owner cannot see clearly
  • Financial reports exist, but they aren't easy to interpret
