Why you need a cash flow forecast

One of the most useful bits of advice that established entrepreneurs give to people starting their own business is this: ‘cash is king’.

It doesn’t matter what business you’re in and how profitable it is, if you run out of cash, your business will struggle to continue. If you can’t pay suppliers you’ll have nothing to sell, and it’s a quick, vicious circle from there to insolvency.

A good business needs a positive cash flow, where the amount of money coming in to the bank account each month at least matches the amount of money going out.

This is something that needs to be monitored at every stage of business growth. Obviously if your business is going through a rough patch, you need to keep a very close eye on your finances.
