The success of any business can be linked directly to organized financial reporting. Knowing exactly what profits are coming in, what expenses are going out, where business is coming from, and how to maximize finances is the best way to keep a business growing and ready for the long haul.  

In this episode, I cover the benefits of regularly reviewing these 5 financial reports: accounts receivable, profit and loss by income, profit and loss by your top 10 clients, budget versus actuals, and a comparison balance sheet.   

In this episode, you’ll also hear: 

• Monitoring and managing cash flow  


• Making informed adjustments to your business  


• The value of reviewing financials on a regular basis
