Cash Flow 101. The forgotten financial statement.

A plug-and-play Excel template that forecasts your cash 12 weeks out. The one report your P&L doesn't show — and the one most owners wish they'd started five years ago.

What's inside

A 12-week rolling forecast you can actually maintain.

  • Opening bank balance, weekly in, weekly out, ending balance
  • Categorized inflows and outflows with pre-wired formulas
  • Low-balance highlighting so you see trouble coming
  • Scenario toggle: best case / worst case / expected
  • A short explainer on reading the statement without an MBA

Who it's for

Owners who run the business off their bank balance.

If you've ever made a hiring, buying, or pricing decision based on "looks like we've got enough" — this template is the upgrade. Fifteen minutes to set up, ten minutes a week to maintain, and you'll never be blindsided by a cash crunch again.
