Why Your Best Month Still Felt Tight
Julianna explains why a strong revenue month can still feel financially tight and why higher revenue does not always mean more cash in the bank. She outlines the difference between revenue, cash and profit, and shares a common example where invoices are unpaid while large or irregular costs fall due, including BAS, software renewals, contractors and insurance, alongside money not being set aside for tax. She gives five main reasons for the squeeze: cash not received yet, irregular expenses, no tax set aside, expenses quietly increasing and relying on the bank balance as the main guide. She then shares five steps on how to fix it.
