3 Weeks From Payroll Panic? Fixing a Cash Flow Crisis Fast | EP635


Listen Later

When your pipeline dries up, clients vanish without paying, and payroll is looming with no cash in sight—what do you do? In this episode, we dive into a real-life scenario where an architecture firm faces a $52K quarterly loss, $215K in overdue invoices, and only three weeks of cash left.

What happens when your firm hits a financial wall—hard—and you’ve got just weeks of cash left? This episode pulls back the curtain on a real architecture practice facing exactly that. You'll hear a raw, behind-the-scenes look at a business in crisis—and how smart billing, strategic thinking, and community insight begin to turn the tide.

You'll meet an architect pushed to the brink—no new projects, massive unpaid invoices, and a crushing cash flow crunch. But within the pressure, unexpected strategies emerge. From ancient Roman wheels to outsourcing breakthroughs, this episode isn’t just theory—it’s a survival guide.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • The surprising mindset shift that instantly changes how cash flows into your firm
  • A little-known outsourcing trick that could save your practice six figures
  • Why one ancient invention still haunts your billing system—and how to break free

Ready to uncover what you don’t even know is costing you?
