Continuous accounting close: how to keep your finances always up to date.

Welcome back to another episode of "Ask a CFO," the discussion centers around the concept of continuous accounting close. The primary focus is on how companies can expedite the monthly, quarterly, or yearly financial close process, aiming to avoid waiting until the end of the month to reconcile and finalize their financial records. The episode emphasizes that continuous accounting involves consistently updating and reconciling financial data throughout the month, ensuring that the books are not outdated at any point during the accounting period. This proactive approach is particularly valuable for large companies with numerous transactions and various departments that need to coordinate the close process. It also highlights the importance of looking at specific elements like accounts payable, accounts receivable, and revenue recognition on an ongoing basis to reduce stress and improve the efficiency of the accounting team. Key takeaways:Continuous Accounting Close Definition: it's about updating financial records and reconciling accounts throughout the month, rather than waiting until the end of the month. This approach ensures that financial data is up-to-date and accurate.Benefits of Continuous Accounting: Continuous accounting helps reduce stress for the accounting team by avoiding last-minute rushes at month-end. It allows for better control of financial processes, such as accounts payable (AP) and accounts receivable (AR), and ensures timely revenue recognition.Gradual Implementation: Implementing continuous accounting is a gradual process, starting with incremental improvements to different accounting processes. This approach, called "crawl, walk, run," ensures that each aspect of the close is continuously monitored and updated, leading to more efficient and accurate financial reporting.Send your question to #AskaCFOSign up for the free starter membership below for access to free resources and financial tools which are created to support you at every step of your journey.Click HEREConnect with us: LinkedInTwitterYoutubeWebsite

How to create a scenario analysis to ensure you're building back a cash cushion by year-end?

In this episode of "Ask a CFO," the host addresses the question of how to manage finances when expenses remain constant but sales are inconsistent. The focus is on understanding different scenarios, including the base case, best case, and worst case. The base case involves analyzing the progression of the sales pipeline, considering stages of probability. The best case is often discarded when sales are unpredictable, as it doesn't provide a significant cash cushion. The worst case is the starting point, looking at contracted business with signed deals to determine the year-end cash balance. If it's insufficient, expense reduction strategies need to be implemented. The episode also emphasizes the importance of gating items, such as large deals or donors, which can influence cash flow and expense management.Key takeaways:Scenario Analysis: When dealing with uneven sales and fixed expenses, it's essential to analyze various scenarios, including the base case, best case, and worst case, to understand the potential outcomes.Cash Liquidity: Maintaining adequate cash liquidity is a top priority for business survival. The worst-case scenario, based on signed contracts, serves as a crucial indicator of potential financial troubles.Gating Items: Identifying and monitoring gating items, such as significant deals or donors, can have a substantial impact on your financial situation. They can influence whether you must cut expenses or continue spending to achieve your financial goals.Send your question to #AskaCFOSign up for the free starter membership below for access to free resources and financial tools which are created to support you at every step of your journey.Click HEREConnect with us: LinkedInTwitterYoutubeWebsite

How to strategize to get all the companies' debts paid?

In this episode of "Ask a CFO," we talk about the crucial question of how to strategize to get all your company's debt paid. It might not sound like the wildest ride in the financial theme park, but managing debt is crucial for success, and our host has some insights to share. Here are three key takeaways from this episode:Key takeaways:Debt Management is Critical for Fundraising: excessive debt can hinder a company's ability to raise funds and grow. While debt itself is not inherently bad, it's essential to be cautious about the types of debt you take on. Prioritize Debt with Personal Guarantees: paying down debt with personal guarantees should be a top priority. Debt with personal guarantees can significantly increase stress levels if the company encounters difficulties. Consider Debt Rollover and Forward-Looking Projections: For certain types of debt, such as venture debt, renegotiation and rollover options can be explored. It's crucial to have forward-looking projections to understand when debt payments will come due and align fundraising milestones accordingly. Equity investors are more interested in supporting business growth than in paying down existing debt.Send your question to #AskaCFOSign up for the free starter membership below for access to free resources and financial tools which are created to support you at every step of your journey.Click HEREConnect with us: LinkedInTwitterYoutubeWebsite

Sales pipelines, expenses, and cash liquidity, explained.

In this episode of "Ask a CFO," James discusses the interplay between sales pipelines, expenses, and cash liquidity. Cash is the lifeblood of any organization, and it's crucial to manage both the inflow and outflow of cash effectively. Expenses are highlighted as typically predictable, especially when not scaling or hiring new personnel. In contrast, sales can be unpredictable, underscoring the importance of maintaining a well-structured sales pipeline. James also talks about the importance of having a detailed sales system with the ability to predict sales, ideally on a quarterly basis, and conducting weekly meetings to track progress. The episode also addresses the significance of adapting to changing sales conditions. When sales are slow, the CEO and team may need to intervene, while if sales exceed expectations, it signals strong cash liquidity. The episode offers insights into how businesses can plan their finances and adapt to changing circumstances to ensure financial stability. So, let's dive in.Key takeaways:Cash Management is Vital: Effective cash management involves not only monitoring the cash that's coming in but also keeping a close eye on the cash that's flowing out.Sales Pipeline Predictability: While expenses can often be predictable, sales are usually less so. To address this unpredictability, having a well-structured sales pipeline is crucial. Scenario Planning: By considering different outcomes, particularly in the context of gating items (key deals or events), a business can better prepare for different financial situations. Send your question to #AskaCFOSign up for the free starter membership below for access to free resources and financial tools which are created to support you at every step of your journey.Click HEREConnect with us: LinkedInTwitterYoutubeWebsite

When will my company need a CFO?

Welcome back to another insightful episode of Ask a CFO! In this episode, James tackles a question that is often questioned by many founders and CEO: When should I bring in a CFO? We'll explore that as the answer isn't one-size-fits-all.In the early stages, especially for smaller businesses, outsourcing financial functions is often a smart move, which may involve having a controller, FP&A expert, or a fractional CFO to navigate complex financial issues. However, a full-time CFO may become more essential as the company grows and evolves. These strategic financial leaders are key players, bridging the gap between various departments, such as finance, product, sales, marketing, and operations. The timing for transitioning to an internal CFO can vary, but it's usually considered when a company's sales reach a range of 50 to 100 million.Let's dive right in!Key takeaways:No One-Size-Fits-All Answer: The need for a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) varies depending on a company's stage of growth and individual circumstances.Strategic Role of the CFO: A CFO's role goes beyond traditional financial tasks. They play a critical role in strategic decision-making, impacting areas such as profitability, customer service, pricing strategies, and marketing. Timing is Key: While a general guideline suggests considering an internal CFO when a company's sales reach a certain level, the timing for bringing in a CFO should be aligned with the company's unique growth trajectory and needs. Send your question to #AskaCFOSign up for the free starter membership below for access to free resources and financial tools which are created to support you at every step of your journey.Click HEREConnect with us: LinkedInTwitterYoutubeWebsite

Episode 22: How to Cut Administrative Costs in your Start Up

Learn the #1 Key to Creating a Thriving BusinessEpisode 22: How to Cut Administrative costs in your Start-Up The #AskaCFO series is a weekly Q & A with CFO James Vanreusel, CE and Founder of Vanreusel Ventures.  In this series James answers questions ranging from  corporate finance,  FP& A, Investor Relations, Professional Development, Business Growth, Fundraising, M& A, and more.One of the most important things to remember when running a start up with limited resources, is that every expense is on the chopping block every month.  As we all know we live in the world of subscriptions and it is very easy to let them get out of control. If you want to keep expenses flat, to maximize profitability, you want to take some of the money from elsewhere, to invest in areas that are really going to help you as you scale. To do this, you need to go through your p&l, your chart of accounts, even all the all the operating expenses.   When costs are high and revenue is uncertain you should sit down each month, and look at every single expense and ask yourself three very important questions:1. Is this expense necessary to function as a business.2. Is it doing its job? Is it helping you grow?3. Can I get it cheaper?

Episode 20:How can a CFO help a For Profit after a Series A or B round of funding? | #AskaCFO with James Vanreusel

Ask a CFO Weekly Q & A SeriesLearn 5  Business Growth StrategiesEpisode 20: How can a CFO help a For Profit after a Series A or B round of funding?The #AskaCFO series is a weekly Q & A with CFO James Vanreusel.  James answers questions ranging from  corporate finance,  FP& A, Investor Relations, Professional Development, Business Growth, Fundraising, M& A, and moreCFOs are a thinking partner to the CEO. I have said it multiple times. When you are dealing with fundraising of any kind, you must have support in your back pocket to assist with your financial functionality. Ideally, you want to start getting help from a CFO at least six months before your fundraising efforts, BUT most times, it's better late than never. Investors need complete visibility and 100% of the CEO's time. If you do not have your due diligence in order, your numbers straight, your finance team is working together as one....you will find yourself with friction that is strong enough to slow your growth momentum.  A CFO can help growing companies professionalize their financial structure in anticipation of explosive growth and fundraising (Series A or Series B). Many times at this stage, you may not be able to afford an entire finance team, but perhaps you have an accountant. That's great! But they cannot do it alone, and they do not replace a CFO. A CFO will ensure that your finance infrastructure is upgraded and ready for the hard questions that investors will ask. They focus on the behind-the-scenes strategy, help fix what is broken, and ensure that your financial processes are in top condition.  Raising your first round of funding is a pivotal point in your growing for-profit business, and you must have the expertise and mentorship available to you for optimized growth. A CFO and a Finance team will jump in and develop an advanced level of financial planning and reporting that will help you secure your future much faster as a team.  P.S ASK A CFO was recently listed as #3 on the  “Top 15 Corporate Finance Podcasts To Follow in 2021 (feedspot.com)” Thank you to feedspot.com for helping us make that happen, and to everyone who supported our show.

When a finance department of a growing business doesn’t have someone protecting the financial health of the company, the business will struggle to grow.  CFO’s act as the head of the Finance and Accounting department. They will fully understand the principles of accounting and bookkeeping but are not accountants. The CFO is the one who focuses on the big picture items, the big deals, M & A, fraud risk management, fundraising, strategic hiring, audits, and more.  CFO’s act as a thinking partner to the CEO, the head of the Finance department, a mentor to the team, quarterback and guardian. They will guide the finance team through the gears, keep a tight reign on all finance functions, move the company toward financial growth, and support the CEO through massive business decisions.An excellent accounting team is crucial but does not take the place of a CFO, and a CFO does not take the place of an accounting team.P.S ASK A CFO was recently listed as #3 on the  "Top 15 Corporate Finance Podcasts To Follow in 2021 (feedspot.com)" Thank you to feedspot.com for helping us make that happen, and to everyone who supported our show.
