Get Financially FIT with Debbie Bailey

In this episode, Debbie Bailey tackles one of the most overlooked parts of running a business: follow-up. From the sofa cleaner who lost two years of repeat bookings to the window cleaner who drove past the same house for two years without ever knocking, Debbie shares real stories that show exactly what it costs when we don't stay in touch.She breaks down who you should be following up with (it's a longer list than you think), why most of us don't do it, fear of being annoying, fear of rejection, or simply no system and how to reframe all of it. Plus the "I don't have time" myth, thoroughly busted.If you only take one thing away from this episode: follow up. It's that simple, and it works.Who to follow up with:Every enquiry into your businessCurrent customersPast customersPeople who've engaged positively with your social postsFollowers who've interacted with youPeople who've replied to your emailsPeople who've recommended youPeople who've left you a testimonialCollaboration opportunitiesPress opportunitiesPrevious bookings Hosted on Acast.

Most managing directors at the £1–5m stage are chasing one headline number.Revenue. Growth. Cash.And that appears to make sense.But when you focus on one KPI in isolation, you can hit it and still damage the business underneath it.In this episode, I break down:Why growth without guardrails can erode profitWhat happens when behaviour is driven by narrow measurementThe gym example: revenue up, retention ignored, profitability under pressureWhy corporates never look at a KPI in isolationYou don’t need a complex dashboard but you need to understand what your headline number is and what sits beside it to protect the business long term.If you’re leading a growing business and want more control without the read tape, this episode is for you.

Risk rarely shows up where you expect it.In this episode of Get Financially Fit, Debbie Bailey explores the kind of risk that sits quietly in the background while the numbers look fine, the sort that keeps business owners awake at 3am but never appears in the P&L until it’s too late.Drawing on a real client story and her experience in corporate finance, Debbie explains how larger organisations think about risk as design, not fear and how MDs of £1–5m businesses can apply the same thinking without adding layers of process or complexity.You’ll hear why unmanaged risk often shows up personally before it shows up financially, how simple structural decisions can create calm, and the one question Debbie would ask if she were sitting next to you as your Finance Director.This episode is for managing directors who want to grow their business without carrying all the risk themselves.

You can be profitable and still feel stuck.You can have cash in the bank and still feel nervous. And you can look at your numbers regularly and still feel unsure what decision to make next.In this episode, I explain why that happens and why profit, cash and the balance sheet only make sense when you look at them together.This isn’t about learning accounting. It’s about understanding why decision-making feels hard when you’re only looking at one part of the picture.I share how finance directors actually use profit, cash and the balance sheet together to help CEOs:understand what’s really going on in the businessavoid cash squeezes and tax surprisesmake confident decisions about pay, growth and investmentstop reacting month to monthIf you’ve ever thought, “The business is profitable… so why does this still feel stressful?” this episode will help you see why and what to look at differently.

The balance sheet is one of the most misunderstood reports in a small business and one of the most important.In this episode of Get Financially FIT with Debbie Hancock, Debbie explains how corporates really use the balance sheet as a control and decision-making tool, not just a year-end formality.Drawing on real-world examples from gyms and growing businesses, Debbie walks through:what the balance sheet actually shows (and what it doesn’t)how mistakes here often lead to overpaying taxwhy payroll, VAT and fixed assets are common problem areashow the balance sheet affects dividends, cash confidence and business valueand what a CEO should be looking at — without needing to become an accountantThis episode is about understanding your business position properly, asking better questions, and using the balance sheet the way a Finance Director would, so your profit, tax and decisions are grounded in reality. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Every corporate finance team runs a monthly budget vs actuals review. Not because it’s glamorous, but because it keeps the business honest, stable and moving in the right direction.Most small businesses never do this and it shows up in stress, confusion, and that feeling of “I’m busy, but I’ve no idea where the money’s going.”In this episode, I walk you through the exact process an FD would guide a CEO through, including:what budget vs actuals really shows youhow to understand the story behind your numbersthe difference between timing issues and structural changeswhat creeping costs revealand how to make one or two clear decisions each month that protect your profitThis isn’t about perfection. It’s about clarity, control and running your business like a CEO, not reacting month to month.If you’ve ever wished your profit matched your effort, this is the episode to start with. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This final episode of 2025 isn’t about targets, tactics, or spreadsheets.It’s a pause, a moment to breathe, reflect, and recognise who you’ve become this year.Instead of diving straight into budgets vs actuals, I’m guiding you through something I do every December for myself and my clients: a human and financial review using the Four Ls: what you Loved, the Lessons you learned, what you Loathed, and what you Longed for.In this episode, I share my own reflections from 2025, from shutting off in the Canadian Rockies, getting married, running parkruns again, navigating grief, to the surprising joy of starting a second business. And I walk you through the questions that help you understand whether your business is supporting the life you want… or getting in the way of it.We end with my own “delusional goals” for 2026 and a gentle invitation for you to set yours too.A grounding, human episode, perfect for closing out the year with clarity instead of pressure.

In this episode of Get Financially FIT, Debbie Hancock breaks down one of the most overlooked areas of small business finance: stock.Stock isn’t just “stuff on shelves”, it’s money, it lives on your balance sheet, and it affects your profit, your cashflow, your insurance, and your ability to run your business with confidence.Debbie shares two real stories from clients: • one who accidentally overstated profit and overpaid £10,000 in tax because stock was coded incorrectly • another who wasn’t counting stock at all and only discovered missing stock (and missing profit) once proper checks were in placeYou’ll learn why corporates count stock so often, why systems matter more than spreadsheets, and how simple routines can stop profit quietly disappearing.Debbie also explains how stock impacts decision-making, lead times, storage costs, and insurance and why accurate stock levels protect your business long before anything goes wrong.If you hold any kind of physical product or material, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and practical steps to take straight away.

Let’s be honest — most business owners avoid dealing with legal until they absolutely have to.

In this episode of ‘Get Financially Fit,’ Debbie Hancock talks with Alex Cooper from Bibby Foreign Exchange about managing foreign exchange risks for SMEs. They explore how hedging with forward contracts differs from spot trading and how businesses can protect profit margins, reduce costs, and avoid common mistakes with currency management. If your business deals with international payments, this episode offers practical insights to help you improve profitability and cash flow by taking control of foreign exchange.Takeaways Foreign exchange management is crucial for businesses involved in importing and exporting. Hedging is a strategic decision to protect profit margins, not a gamble. Spot trading is for immediate currency needs, while forward contracts secure future rates. Understanding the spread in foreign exchange can lead to significant cost savings. Many SMEs are unaware of their foreign exchange exposure and potential savings. A 0% deposit forward contract can help businesses manage cash flow better. Regularly reviewing foreign exchange strategies is essential for cost management. Communication between finance and supply chain is vital for effective foreign exchange management. Businesses should not ignore foreign exchange losses; they can be mitigated. Bibby Foreign Exchange offers tailored solutions for businesses of all sizes. Sound Bites "There are significant savings to make." "Do you want to increase prices?" "It's a no-brainer, isn't it?" "Are you using a budget rate?" "Do they know what it's costing them?" Alex contact details:https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-cooper-95b70525/[email protected] 088424 Hosted on Acast.
