The Cash Flow Navigation System™

A clear, repeatable financial rhythm that shows you exactly where your business stands and what to do next.

As your Certified CFO™, I'll work with you monthly to guide your business through a proven cash-first framework that gives you:

📊

A Scoreboard

So you know exactly what's working and what's not across your cash, revenue, and expenses.
📋

An Action Plan

So you're always clear on your top financial priorities for the next 30 days.

A Monthly Rhythm

So you can move forward with confidence, one month at a time.

No stress. No guesswork. No surprise tax bills.
Just a system that helps you move forward one month at a time.

What You Get With Certified CFO Support

  • 💬 A monthly meeting where we break down your numbers
  • 📊 A visual Scoreboard showing your financial health
  • 📋 A short, clear Action Plan for your next financial moves
  • 🧠 Strategic guidance to grow with control
  • 💡 Clarity on what to spend, save, and pay yourself, in plain English
  • 🔁 A monthly rhythm that creates repeatable financial progress
I'm not replacing your bookkeeper or managing your finance team.
I'm your cash-focused financial partner, guiding you to smart, stable growth.

The Monthly Rhythm That Drives Cash Clarity

Every month, we follow the same five steps:

1. Review where your money went

We look at what actually happened last month. No judgment, just clarity.

2. Forecast where it's going next

We project the next 30 to 90 days so you're never caught off guard.

3. Update your color-coded Scoreboard

Green, yellow, or red. You'll know exactly where you stand.

4. Build your custom Action Plan

We identify your top 3 to 5 financial priorities for the next 30 days.

5. Meet for 60 minutes to review and plan next moves

We walk through everything together and you leave with complete clarity.

This is what it means to run your business like a CFO, even if you're still a team of one.

Your Cash Clarity Roadmap

Cash Flow Navigation System Workflow

The Engine Behind the System

The Cash Flow Navigation System™ works because of these 3 internal components:

1. Cash Routing Logic

Functional:

Assigns every incoming dollar a job

Experiential:

You know exactly what to hold, spend, and pay yourself each month

Emotional:

Relief. You're no longer guessing or hoping the account will cover it

2. Rolling Cash View

Functional:

Forecasts what cash will look like 30, 60, and 90 days out

Experiential:

You stop getting blindsided by tax bills, payroll, or surprise expenses

Emotional:

Confidence. You feel in control and ahead of your finances

3. Next-Move Guidance

Functional:

Turns data into a focused 30-day plan

Experiential:

No more vague loops of "I should probably do something"

Emotional:

Clarity. You always know what to do next

This Is For You If…

  • You're making good money but cash is still unpredictable
  • You're not sure what your business can afford
  • You want to grow but with control, not chaos
  • You want guidance from someone who's been in your shoes
  • You want a clear, monthly plan, not just another spreadsheet
