Let’s talk options!

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, but here are a few ways to forecast your cash flow depending on your preferences and tools:

1. Spreadsheets (Google Sheets or Excel)

Great if you want full control and flexibility.

You can build out a weekly or monthly view based on your actual income and expenses.

Ideal if you like working closely with your numbers.

2. Bookkeeping Software (like QuickBooks or Xero)

These platforms often have built-in cash flow reports or projection features that use your existing data.

This works well if your books are already current and accurate.

3. Dedicated Cash Flow Tools (like Float or Pulse)

These tools integrate with your accounting software and give you a visual look at your upcoming cash position.

Perfect if you're growing and want a more advanced view.

Ready to get clear on your numbers so you can make confident decisions, hit your goals, and grow your business with purpose?

Before diving into a new set of books, I always ask some key questions to get a clear picture of where things stand.

It’s not just about the numbers it’s about understanding your business.

That way, your books aren't just clean they're working with your goals.

Getting clear up front saves time, avoids confusion, and helps us build a system that actually supports your business.
