Take the first step towards mastering your cash flow, finances, and life!
Master Your Cash Flow® – master your life
“Master your cash flow®.” It’s just four simple words, but, taken to heart, it’s a concept that can change your life in ways you could never imagine! In fact, until you become the master of your cash flow you’ll never have full control over your financial future. And if you don’t have control, someone else will.
Master your business cash flow – Determine how you live NOW and the future you want.
Nobody opens a business with thoughts of failure. We do it for the challenge, independence, earning potential, or love of sharing our products, services, or ideas with others. We want to impact the world!
And yet, only 66 percent of businesses with employees will survive their second year. That’s far too many people enduring the pain of a major financial setback, not to mention a broken dream. And it doesn’t have to be that way.
So why do so many businesses fail? After 30 years in finance, and a nearly failed business of my own, I believe the primary reason businesses go broke is that they fail to master their cash flow.
Want to find more cash flow in your business, personally? Adopt the CFO mindset.
Practically all of the time, business owners are so busy working in their business that they forget to work on their business. It’s much more exciting to make a sale than to review a budget. But with the US Chamber of Commerce showing about half of new businesses failing by their 5th year, you might want to keep on reading.
Entrepreneurs can be like squirrels chasing nuts, always searching for the next big opportunity. They’re often distracted by the “shiny object,” always ready to jump on new ideas as they arise. But great ideas they do find. Making them successful is the challenge. Their talent for creativity and finding opportunities normally comes with a major blindspot in regard to running a business efficiently and maximizing cash flow. They need help.
What if going to work was optional?
Imagine it: walking into the office by choice rather than necessity. Think about it: Feel the stress melt. Feels good, doesn’t it? I bet it brings a smile to your face. This seems like a pipe dream to many, but the reality is that it isn’t so difficult to achieve with the right financial decisions under your belt and your commitment.
Financial independence…are you really committed to it?
The question I’m most often asked is not simply “how do I become financially independent?” but rather “how do I become financially independent as quickly as possible?”
While there’s no one-size-fits-all answer to these questions, I can help you determine the best course of action to find your version of financial independence…as long as you’re truly committed to the actions you must take. If not, stop reading now and keep ignoring your finances. But if you are really serious about this, read on!
It Doesn’t Take an Einstein to Understand This Formula for Growing Your Business’s Value
Unfortunately, most of us depend on the man. That means we require a business owner to sign our paychecks. Yet being the business owner comes with challenges of its own: the well-being of your employees, the success of your company, pivoting with changing economic conditions.
However, one great advantage that a business owner has is the ability to build wealth more quickly. If the business is producing enough cash flow , they can live the lifestyle they want now, pay their taxes, and put aside money in a pension plan and other investment accounts to build wealth and retire in the timeframe they want. The business itself is an additional asset that can add to their personal wealth when it’s sold.
