Trade note

Inventory can make a profitable company feel cash-poor

Inventory, freight, purchasing timing, vendor terms, and receivables can hide the answer. The business may not need more sales until it knows how much cash is trapped in the operating cycle.

Why a diagnostic beats a generic consulting pitch

Two companies in the same trade can have completely different problems. One needs cash discipline. Another needs pricing. Another needs a manager. Another needs books clean enough to sell. The Checkup finds the correct first move.

Common questions

Do you work with Manufacturing and distribution businesses?

Yes. The Checkup is built for owner-run service and trade businesses, including manufacturing and distribution companies that need a clear business picture.

How big should the business be?

The strongest fit is usually an established business doing roughly $750K or more, though the fit call determines whether we can help.

What if I do not know the exact numbers?

That is normal. We use what you know, inspect what is actually happening, and show the missing numbers in plain English.
