I have started a series

"Where your numbers make sense"

Today is episode 1.

Your P&L says you made $20,000 profit.

But your bank account says something completely different.

So... where did the money go?

This is where understanding your numbers matters.

Profit tells you what you earned. Cash flow tells you what you actually have available.

Maybe $10,000 is sitting in unpaid invoices. Maybe you paid suppliers upfront. Maybe you purchased equipment.

That's why I always say: don't just look at your profit. Understand where your cash is going.

This is Where Your Numbers Make Sense.”

I’m starting a new series: “Make Your Numbers Make Sense.”

As an accountant, I’ve noticed that many business owners don’t actually need more numbers — they need to understand the numbers they already have.

Revenue. Profit. Cash flow. VAT. Xero. P&L.

These can look complicated, but they don't have to be.

So I’m starting a daily series where I’ll take one accounting/business number at a time and explain what it actually means for a business owner — simply and practically.

Episode 1 coming next: “Your business made £100,000. So why isn't £100,000 in your bank account?”

If you're a founder, freelancer, or small-business owner, follow along.

Let’s make your numbers make sense.
