Cashflow Forecasting

Cashflow forecasting is critical to the survival and growth of any business, without establishing targets for the year you may be flying blind.

We find that our most successful clients are those who have set targets each year and monitor their results on a regular basis.  Our team want to help you to set, monitor and manage financial targets and improve business performance.

A cashflow forecast will set monthly financial targets and provide you with a monthly breakdown of all your income and expenses for a minimum 12-month period.  This enables you to regularly measure actual results against budget so that you can respond to any change in your business and have control over your cash flow.


What is involved?

We will develop a cashflow forecast unique to your business, based on discussions with your goals and the objectives you would like to achieve. 

We will then arrange a meeting to review the draft forecast with you to discuss and finalise it.  You will receive a copy of your that can be uploaded into your accounting system (such as Xero) and report your actual results against the forecast.
