Improve Your Cash Flow (Part 2 of 3) #101

In part two of our 100th-episode mini-series, hosts Simon and Clare Hancott explain why cash flow is the lifeblood of business and share five practical ways to improve it. Designed for six- and seven-figure business owners, this episode covers quick changes you can make now to build a safety buffer and seize opportunities in a volatile 2026. They walk through five steps: control when money leaves your bank with structured payment runs; make it frictionless for customers to pay (direct debit, card links and modern payment tools); track the payment habits of your top customers; use government payment terms and time-to-pay arrangements as free credit; and build a rolling 13-week cash flow forecast to plan ahead.
