Manage episode 419610545 series 3556797
Do you know the difference between profit vs. cash flow vs. cash on hand?
You might have looked at your profit number but then wondered why your cash isn't saying the same thing.
You're seemingly profitable but you're continuously running into depleted or nearly depleted cash.
Profit, cash flow, and cash on hand are all different things and as your business grows and gets more complex with your income sources and expenses, it’s not enough to just know revenue and expenses.
In this episode, you’ll understand what your profit margins should be for different aspects of your business so you can create the cash flow you need to sustain your business. You’ll also learn why understanding your cash flow is how you’ll be able to increase your cash on hand, which allows you to have business savings, pay off debt, and pay yourself more.
