Don't Fall Victim to Poor Money Management: The Key to Tech Company Survival

Crisis Management

One of the most financially dangerous things a business can do is not have a proper money management strategy or structure. Many businesses have failed because they only have one bank account and no idea about their cash flow, its purpose, priority, or due date. Without knowing if their sales, marketing, direct, or indirect services are working, they are left with deceptive success, leading to disastrous results.

As an expert at helping companies increase profit, I have seen many offices with this strategy fail miserably. They are stuck in a Ferris wheel of money in and money out, with analytics that are clear as mud, providing no insight. They continue to go round and round until they run out of money, not knowing why, and having to shut down their business. Unlike a job, closing a business can lead to owing a lot of money.

This explains the scary statistics in the technology industry, with 90% of tech startups, 70% of venture-backed startups, and less than 50% of businesses making it to their 5th year. Furthermore, 82% of businesses fail because of cash flow problems. It is crucial to have a money management strategy that verifies your success, whether you are generating free-flowing cash or not.
