Don’t Wait Until it is Too Late
As you go about trying to improve company finances, remember these keys:

While some things you buy for the business may well need to go on the plastic, many other things can be bought with cash. Also take a look at what you may pay for office rent, marketing and advertising and more. You may well discover you have been paying too much for such things.
