1. 5 Ways to Boost Cash Flow
Happy spring! I hope each of you enjoyed a break and some time away.
It's hard to believe Q1 is already over.
Over the last 3 months, we've focused on growth strategy across 6 pillars.
Q2 will focus on the remaining 3 pillars starting with — Finances.
Finances
Marketing & Communications
People & Culture
Cash flow is critical.
During leadership offsite planning, one law firm client discovered that it was paying for software licenses for attorneys who had departed years earlier.
Those expenses add up and cut into the bottom line.
Here are 5 ways to boost cash flow to invest in growth.
Spring Cleaning – Review business expenses each year. Inventory recurring expenses like subscriptions and memberships – and discard the excess.
Value-based Pricing – Price offerings based on outcomes. If your one-day $15k session results in $80k of new revenue then that's solid ROI. Focus on the value - not time - you deliver.
Cash is Queen – A lag in Accounts Receivable hurts business. Negotiate shorter payment terms & invoice upfront. Automate where possible & follow up.
The Perfect Pair – Pair products and services to complement one another. Can you productize services through a book or course? Can you offer services to support advanced product features?
The Fractional Edge – You can't build a leadership team overnight and expensive mis-hires are hard to absorb. Fractional executives go beyond traditional consulting to mature a specific function, embedding as long-term partners or transitioning functions to full-time leaders.
How are you managing finances wisely to grow your firm's bottom line?
