Cash Flow & Budget Services.

Having up-to-date and accurate financial records is a great start—but what’s the point if you’re not using them to shape the future of your business? At Elevate Business Solutions, we go beyond just keeping your books in order. With our cash flow forecasting and budget planning services, we help you leverage your numbers to make informed decisions, avoid cash shortages, and achieve the business of your dreams.

How our process works.

  • Accurate Data First:

    To unlock the true potential of forecasting, you need reliable financial data. That’s why we require clients to be on our full-service bookkeeping plan. We ensure that every transaction is reconciled, every invoice is tracked, and every payroll entry is correct. There’s no point connecting our powerful forecasting tool to inaccurate data. Once your numbers are clean and current, we’re ready to look forward.

  • Cash Flow Forecasting Setup:

    Next, we dive into your financials and analyze the last 12 months of data. We identify trends, calculate averages, and use these insights to create realistic budget figures within our chosen forecasting app, Float. By carefully setting up your budgets here, we establish a solid foundation for understanding exactly where your money is going and how to optimize it.

  • Interactive Planning Session (1.5 Hours):

    Once the initial setup is complete, we schedule a 1.5-hour Teams meeting with you. Together, we’ll review every line item with a fine-tooth comb, uncovering hidden costs and spotting opportunities to trim unnecessary expenses. Clients are often amazed at how much clarity this brings—and how quickly potential savings add up. Before you know it, you’ll see that the cost of this forecasting service isn’t just covered; it can actually help you save even more in the long run.

  • Ongoing Monthly Check-Ins:

    Financial planning isn’t a “set and forget” exercise. Each month, you’ll meet via Teams with your dedicated bookkeeper and Sally Brindle, the Principal of EBS, to review the month just gone. We’ll pinpoint areas for improvement, understand why certain figures may have fallen short of expectations, and adjust future budget projections accordingly. This proactive approach ensures your financial plan stays aligned with your evolving business goals.

  • Scenario Planning for Growth:

    Ready to dream bigger? With accurate data and a dynamic forecasting model at your fingertips, you can now test out new ideas with confidence. Wondering if you can afford to give your team a pay rise, invest in new equipment, or bring on another employee? We can instantly show you how these decisions will impact your cash flow. Instead of guessing “what if,” you’ll make informed choices that position your business for sustainable growth.

By following these steps, we turn your financial data into a powerful strategic tool. With Elevate Business Solutions by your side, you’ll not only understand your numbers—you’ll use them to shape a prosperous, well-planned future.
