Season 1 Episode 186

0:00/1:34

We share four cash flow plays that keep a painting business liquid while it grows fast. From legal deposit limits to payroll timing and progress billing, we design the money flow so cash shows up when work happens.

• cash survival moves for low bank balance

• collecting receivables and raising legal deposits

• progress payments tied to milestones

• paying subs after customer payment

• payroll timing to increase float

• stacking vendor terms with business credit

• operating legally under capped deposits

• employee model deposits covering CAC and labor

• down-sell strategy for testimonials

• subcontractor model funding current and next job
