Introduction
Your profits might look great on paper — but if your cash is tied up, your business could still struggle. That’s why managing cash flow is more important than just tracking income and expenses.
In this post, we’ll show you how Smart Books helps you stay cash-flow confident with real-time financial tools built into the Accounts Module.
What Is Cash Flow — and Why Does It Matter?
Cash flow is the movement of money in and out of your business.
- Positive cash flow means you have more money coming in than going out.
- Negative cash flow means expenses are draining your business faster than earnings.
Even profitable companies can fail due to poor cash flow management.
That’s where Smart Books comes in — giving you instant access to real-time cash flow data, so you can make decisions that keep your business running smoothly.
