Ryan’s insights:

Cash flow is the lifeblood of a business and critical to its growth.  Small businesses are hugely dependent upon their cash flow and must either cut costs or scramble to find alternative funding when they are not being paid on time.

With money tight, a cash-strapped company can easily be pushed to the brink.

Operating cash flow is such an important aspect of your business as it focuses on the actual cash that goes in and out of your business.  Make a list of all the one-off, fixed and variable expenses.  Realistically project your sales.  You will then be able to see where the business might start to run short of cash.

This exercise is operationally critical.  Without knowing your costs and expenses, you will not be able to project the income needed to make a profit.
