Why cashflow matters
Cashflow is the amount of money going into and coming out of your business. While generating profit is important, if you can get on top of cashflow you’ll be on the road to business longevity – here’s why:
- If you’re looking for financial investment, most investors look at operating cashflow to understand the potential of your business
- Positive cashflow gives you the money you need to be proactive in how you do business
- Cashflow is difficult to manipulate and can only be interpreted in one way so it’s a reliable measure of business health
- Cashflow can be projected, helping you plan for the future and address potential issues
- You can boost cashflow by securing a loan or getting a business credit card if needed and done responsibly. Profit can’t be influenced this way
- That said, good cashflow can help you avoid taking on debt (and reduce existing debt)
To understand cashflow look at:
- Revenue sources – what’s coming into your business from membership fees, add-on services, retail sales, etc.
- Spending – what’s going out of your business for rent, utilities, payroll, marketing, etc.
- Seasonal trends – look for patterns that impact cashflow for your business specifically. For example, membership revenues may be higher in January, but you might spend more on utilities at this time too
Regularly review your cashflow statements watching for and analysing trends. So, you’re able to anticipate times when cashflow peaks and dips.
Once you understand your cashflow, you’ll have greater clarity over what you can do to stay in control even when costs are rising. Get the basics right, while finding creative ways to increase revenue and make savvy savings.
