Frequently asked
Common questions about this
- How much cash should I keep in the business?
- Most business owners land on eight to twelve weeks of fixed costs. Less than that and you are managing fear instead of the business.
- Do I need accounting software for this?
- No. A spreadsheet beats nothing. The point is the habit, not the tool.
