Overview of the webinar

Profitability alone doesn’t guarantee financial health. Countless businesses have shown strong earnings only to collapse because they couldn’t generate enough cash to keep operating. This gap between profits and liquidity is where financial trouble begins—and where cash flow management becomes critical.

If you’ve ever wondered why your business shows profits on the income statement but struggles to pay bills, this session is for you. We’ll demystify cash flow by showing how money actually moves through a business and why timing matters. You’ll see how profits can be locked up in accounts receivable, inventory, or other areas, leaving little actual cash available.

This session will equip you with practical strategies to monitor and manage cash flow more effectively. You’ll learn how to use the cash flow statement, forecast future inflows and outflows, and identify warning signs before liquidity issues arise. We’ll also cover how lenders and investors view cash flow, giving you insights into what stakeholders care about most.

By attending, you’ll gain the skills to connect profits to actual cash and make smarter decisions about spending, borrowing, and growth. Whether you’re a business owner, finance manager, or entrepreneur, this course will help you bridge the gap between profitability and liquidity—ensuring your business can thrive, not just survive.

Why should you attend?

Many businesses proudly report profits but still struggle to pay their bills. The reason is simple: profits on paper don’t always translate to real, usable cash. Cash flow—the movement of money in and out of a business—is what keeps companies running day to day. It determines whether you can meet payroll, pay vendors, or invest in growth.

Yet cash flow is often misunderstood. While profits measure performance, cash flow measures survival. Without a strong handle on cash flow, even profitable businesses can face liquidity crises. This course breaks down the fundamentals of cash flow, explains how it differs from profits, and provides tools to help participants manage, forecast, and strengthen their liquidity.
