Cash is King

Cash is king.  Everybody knows it and yet businesses are lax in their cash flow reporting and forecasting.  CEO and founder of TGG accounting, Matt Garrett explains why “cash is king” and what you can do to have more of it and move the cash you have more wisely.

55% of businesses are failing in the first four years. According to The Brookings Institute 11% fail every year thereafter.  This is all attributed to lack of cash. Here are 6 elements of cash flow management to watch: 

  • DSO (how fast you get paid)
  • DPO (how fast do you pay people)
  • Discounts – give them to get paid faster, ask for them to reduce expense
  • Human capital management (utilization)
  • Inventory management

    First off I would like to say great blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you
    do not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before writing.
    I have had trouble clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out there.
    I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted just trying to
    figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?
    Many thanks!
