In this episode I explore the notion that cashflow forecasting is still quite relevant, perhaps even more so, even when cash inflows seem scarce. As business owners, the pandemic has impacted sales and businesses in so many ways, and therefore subsequently cash coming into our business. But cashflow isn't just about organic cash movements in, it's about ALL cash movements. And when obligations and expenses still exist, so too must the management of them. Enter, cashflow forecasting!

Ever found yourself needing a little more information to make more informed and deliberate decisions? In todays episode, I set out to start a discussion about financial reporting in our business, and challenged whether online financial programs were enough to provide business owners with a complete reporting suite to satisfy their needs. This discussion examines what's on offer vs what a business owner may need to effectively understand the financial numbers in their business. I explore the notion that perhaps complementary resources may be what's missing when it comes to effective financial decision making tools in our businesses.
