Ever wonder what true financial agility looks like when managing your company’s cash flow and long-term solvency? At enTune, we provide end-to-end back-office execution alongside fractional CFO advisory, which includes preparing and reviewing a weekly rolling cash flow forecast directly with our clients every single week. During one of those regular reviews, our team identified that the business was on track to hit a wall and run completely out of cash in about eight weeks. The company had no idea this impending cash crunch was coming.
Had that gap gone unnoticed, week eight would have triggered an outright disaster: missing payroll, being forced into a panicked reactive stance, and risking the ability to continue operating the business. Instead, by catching the trend early, our team took proactive action. Knowing the company had sufficient collateral, we approached the bank to increase their existing line of credit from $2 million to $4 million. Securing that facility in advance kept the business fully solvent and protected their team, proving why real-time visibility is essential before it is too late.
