One of the most common mistakes we see in small business is "Competitive Pricing." An owner looks at what the person down the street is charging, knocks five dollars off the price to be "competitive," and then wonders why they can’t afford to pay themselves at the end of the month.

As your business grows, your "financial team" needs to grow with it. However, there is a lot of confusion regarding titles in our industry. Is a bookkeeper the same as an accountant? When do you need a CFO? Hiring for the wrong role can lead to one of two problems: you either pay too much for basic tasks, or you have clean books but no strategic direction.

There comes a time in every successful business’s journey when "bootstrapping" is no longer enough. Whether you need to purchase new equipment, expand into a larger facility, or bridge a seasonal cash flow gap, securing a loan or a line of credit is often the fuel that powers the next stage of growth.
