Cashflow management: 5 essential SME controls
Five recurring mistakes that hurt SMEs once credit terms tighten — written so each is fixable.
1. Walking into a bank without a 13-week cashflow forecast. 2. Letting your top-customer payment-terms drift unmonitored. 3. Buying stock without knowing inventory days-on-hand. 4. Treating a working-capital line as an overdraft. 5. Not setting internal cashflow corridors.
