When cash is tight

Sales are coming in, but the cash is not there at the end of the month.

We find out why, quickly, and work the fixes with you. It starts with a ten-day Cash Check. After that you decide, one month at a time.

At a glance

First step
A free 30-minute call
The Cash Check
Ten working days from the day we receive your records
Fee
Fixed, agreed on the call, from $2,500
You get
A week-by-week cash forecast and a ranked list of actions
After that
A 90-day reset, one month at a time, if you want it

How it works

Three steps. Each one is small, has a fixed fee and is agreed before it starts. You can stop after any of them.

First conversation 30 minutes, no charge

Step 1: Talk

Talk it through

30 minutes, no charge.

You tell us what is happening: where the cash goes, what has changed and what worries you most. We tell you straight whether this is something we can help with. If what you need is a lawyer or a lender, we say so on the call.

The Cash Check Fixed fee, ten working days

Step 2: Check

See the next 13 weeks

Ten working days from the day we receive your records.

We build a week-by-week forecast of the cash coming in and going out over the next 13 weeks, from your own records. Then we look for the fastest ways to improve it: pricing, collections, job costs, purchasing, scheduling and overhead.

You receive

  • A 13-week cash forecast, week by week
  • The week cash runs short, if it does
  • Five to ten actions, ranked by how much cash each could free, each shown as a range
  • A plain answer on whether the business can be fixed from the inside

We need from you

  • About three hours of the owner's time
  • Bank statements, aged receivables and payables, and the last 12 months of profit and loss
  • Read-only access or exported reports; we never need bank logins

The 90-Day Reset Your choice, one month at a time

Step 3: Reset

Work the list

Three months, in one-month stages.

We work through the action list alongside you and your team. Once a week we meet for 45 minutes, update the forecast with what actually happened and agree the next actions. Where a fix needs a specialist, we bring one in at a fixed price agreed first.

You receive

  • A weekly cash meeting and an updated forecast
  • A weekly action list with a named owner for each item
  • A month-end report: forecast against actual, in dollars

We need from you

  • 45 minutes a week from the owner
  • Weekly bank and receivables figures by an agreed day
  • Decisions made in the week they are needed

The fee

Fixed fees, agreed before each step starts.

The first call
Free. 30 minutes.
The Cash Check
A fixed fee set by the size of the business, from $2,500. Paid before the work starts.
The 90-Day Reset
A fixed monthly fee, agreed after the Cash Check. Each month is paid before it starts. You can stop at the end of any month with nothing more to pay.
Specialist work
Quoted as a fixed price for a named task, and agreed before it begins.

What we do not do

We do not negotiate with lenders or creditors, we do not handle your money, and we do not give legal or bankruptcy advice. If that is what you need, we tell you on the call.

We are a management consulting firm, not a CPA firm or a law firm. Nothing in our work promises a result: every action is an estimate, shown as a range with its assumptions.
