In this episode of the Resilient Retail Game Plan podcast, I tackle the challenges retailers face from September to November, focusing on cash flow management and strategic stock handling. 

I delve into the reasons behind the cash flow pinch during this period, such as holiday season stocking and payment timing issues. I share practical advice on delaying expenses, collecting owed payments, and using detailed cash flow forecasts. I also introduce my 'Stock Doctor' service to help manage underperforming stock and emphasize the importance of balanced inventory year-round. 

Tune in for actionable insights to navigate cash flow challenges and boost your retail success during the holiday season.
