🚩 Financial red flags for small businesses 🚩
If your business finances feel “off”, it’s often because the warning signs show up before a crisis hits. 💸
Watch out for red flags like:
➡️ reduced cash flow and regularly running short on cash
➡️ customers paying later than usual
➡️ struggling to pay suppliers, debts, such as loans or taxes, or yourself
➡️ low profit margins
➡️ not knowing exactly what’s coming in and going out.
The good news? Catching these signs early gives you more options. Don’t ignore the numbers and act early!
➡️ set up your finances properly
➡️ keep good records
➡️ review your numbers weekly
➡️ build your financial skills
➡️ look after your mental health and get support if you need it.
