5 Killer Mistakes – Part 3
The last 2 posts covered the first four of the killer mistakes you can make that will not only make you lose your fish, but possibly your entire company. Today we’re going to talk about the fifth killer mistake: Up Cash Creek Without a Paddle.
Even when business is good there’s still a change of running out of cash flow. You have to always be prepared for a slow in sales or a surge in expenses. One of the keys to balancing your cash flow is to get your clients to pay on time. This can seem like a nightmare, but is absolutely essential to a successful business.
Here are some tips to speed up the payment process:
- Always send invoices out on time and adjust your records for potential audits;
- Learn how the client processes payments on their side and find out precisely where to send invoices;
- Find out who’s in charge of processing orders and payment, so you know who to contact if needed;
- Have a follow-up procedure in place, just in case;
- As a last resort, call your contact to ask questions;
- Always make sure your invoices are correct before sending them out.
You also need to make sure your cash flow is protected. You can do this by:
- Always know which accounts need paid and when.
- Negotiate with your suppliers for the lowest cost possible.
- Have a bank contingency plan in place.
- Build your own inventory network.
These are all great ways to protect the cash flow of your business and prepare for big fish transitions and slow sales. These last few lessons are all about finding and catching your big fish clients. These clients are essential to your success and your need to take the time to work through each of these steps carefully and correctly for the best success.

Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having
a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs
and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!

owners please share. I know this is off subject nevertheless I just needed to
ask. Thanks a lot!

Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your
post seem to be running off the screen in Opera.
I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to
do with web browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let
you know. The design and style look great though!
Hope you get the problem solved soon. Many thanks
Jodi said...
Awesome blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid
option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed ..
Any recommendations? Thanks!
