Understanding The Importance of Cash Flow with Taylor White, Co-Founder and CEO of Countbl
For episode 4 of our five part-series, I sat down with Marine Corps Veteran and Accounting Expert, Taylor White, Co-Founder and CEO of Countbl, which provides financial management support to startups and small businesses. Day in and day out, Taylor advises his clients on best practices for managing their cash flow. Although his sweet spot is venture backable startups, Taylor also brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to more traditional small business owners as well. Together, we discuss why a lack of cash flow kills businesses, the importance of tools such as a 12-week cash flow statement, and making sure you negotiate good payment terms for goods and services.

Designing Profitable Products and Services
A key component of building a successful small business is ensuring you’re able to design profitable products and services. There’s nothing more debilitating than hitting your sales, only to discover you’re still losing money. While this makes sense for venture-backable startups, bootstrapped small business owners can’t afford to burn cash. So for episode 3, I brought on my own personal accountant and bookkeeper, Lathell Blaine, from the Blaine group, to discuss how to plan for profitability out the gate.
