🚨 Growing Fast? Don’t Run Out of Cash
Scaling your business shouldn’t come with a cash crisis. Learn how to grow sustainably—without burning out your bank account.
🧩 The Paradox of Growth: More Sales, Less Cash?
It sounds crazy, but it’s real: fast-growing businesses can—and often do—run out of money.
Here’s why:
⦁ You’re hiring ahead of revenue
⦁ Stocking up on inventory or production
⦁ Extending payment terms to customers
⦁ Taking on new expenses like software, space, or equipment
💥 All of this requires cash now—but your revenue might not land for 30, 60, or even 90 days. That’s a problem.
📊 Profit ≠ Cash
It’s tempting to look at your profit and loss statement and breathe easy—but profit is not cash.
⦁ Profit includes non-cash items like depreciation.
⦁ You might “make a sale” but not get paid for weeks.
⦁ Meanwhile, your bills don’t wait.
You need to watch your real-time cash position, not just your revenue.
💡 Cash Is King—Especially When You’re Scaling
Cash is what pays your team, keeps the lights on, and fuels the next phase of growth.
To stay cash-strong, fast-growing businesses must:
⦁ Forecast cash flow weekly, not just monthly
⦁ Build access to working capital or financing
⦁ Get serious about collections and payment cycles
⦁ Adjust operations based on cash, not just sales
🔮 Look Forward, Not Just Backward
Historical accounts won’t solve this issue.
They tell you what happened yesterday—not what’s about to hit tomorrow.
To survive and thrive during rapid growth, you need:
✅ Cash flow projections
✅ Scenario planning
✅ A clear view of the financial road ahead
The companies that survive are the ones that see what’s coming—before it arrives.
