Your business is selling. Invoices are going out. Customers are buying. So why does the bank account never seem to have enough?
Most business owners reach the same conclusion: they need more money - a loan, an investor, more sales. But that's rarely where the real problem starts.
Is Not a Cashflow Problem exposes the myths that keep companies financially stressed even while they're growing: that more sales always mean more cash, that financing fixes a disorganized business, that profit and cash are the same thing. Drawing on real business cases - including Toys "R" Us, Peloton, Dell, and WeWork - Oscar D. Montesano shows exactly where money gets stuck: accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, and the cash conversion cycle.
Inside, you'll learn:
- Why growth consumes cash faster than it generates it
- How thin margins, discounts, and slow-paying customers quietly drain your reserves
- The difference between profit, cash, and liquidity - and why confusing them costs businesses dearly
- How to build a weekly cash dashboard and project cash flow forward
- Simple rules to protect liquidity and stop managing your business by urgency
Written for entrepreneurs, business owners, and company leaders who don't need to be accountants but do need to see clearly how money moves, this book turns financial stress into financial structure.
Less urgency. More control.
