"Profit is what happens when you do everything else right"

Cash flow is just one of the 12 building blocks of a world class finance function.
-
Start with your WHY
What is your reason for being in business beyond making a profit? This will fire the engine and ultimately ensure you generate greater profits.
-
Pricing
Increase (or potentially decrease) your pricing. Small changes can make big differences: on average, a 1% price increase yields an 11% increase in profit.
-
Reducing costs
Reduce costs and implement a company-wide expense controls programme.
-
Improving payment collection
Improve and automate payment collection.

Measurement/KPIs
What you measure, moves. Deep dive into trends, build intelligent KPIs and focus on what really matters.

Supplier management
Manage suppliers tightly and look for bulk -buying opportunities, consolidation of costs and discounts.

-
R&D tax credits

-
Optimisation
Optimise all working parts of your finance function – ‘The 12 Boxes’ – to improve efficiency and productivity and increase your output.

Outsourcing
Investigate opportunities for outsourcing for reduced costs, increased flexibility and improved access to skills.
