12‑Week Cash Flow View

A week‑by‑week look at the cash coming in and going out over the next 12 weeks. You see a tight week coming a month or more ahead, while there’s still time to move a payment, chase a receivable or line up your credit.

The question it answers

Will you be able to meet your operating expenses over the next six months?

Six months starts with the next 12 weeks. Once you can see those clearly, we pair them with a monthly forecast for the longer stretch, so you know where you stand well past this quarter.

What you get

  • A weekly cash forecast

    Starting cash, expected receipts, planned payments and ending cash for each of the next 12 weeks.

  • Your low point and your floor

    The lowest cash point in the next 12 weeks, measured against a minimum‑cash line we set with you.

  • A short note on what changed

    What moved since last time, and what we’d do about it.

  • A live view in your client portal

    So you can check it any day, not only on meeting days.

How often

Built in your first two weeks. Refreshed every two weeks in Clear Numbers, and weekly in Confident Decisions and Profitable Growth. Once it’s running smoothly, we can hand upkeep to your team.

Example

What a tight week looks like, six weeks out

In our sample, cash dips below the owner’s minimum in week 6. Moving an equipment deposit to week 9 and collecting two overdue invoices keeps cash above the line the whole way.

What we’d do now

Move the $40K equipment deposit from week 5 to week 9, and collect the two invoices that are past 60 days. Cash stays above your $120K floor the whole way.

Who it’s for

Owners who are busier than ever but still move money around to make payroll, and owners about to take on a big expense who want to see its effect first.

Questions

Questions

Why 12 weeks and not 13?

Many bankers call it a 13‑week forecast because that’s one quarter. Twelve weeks is the view Marcie has always used, and the method is the same. Your banker will recognize it.

Where do the numbers come from?

Your books, your open invoices and bills, payroll, loan payments, and what you tell us about the weeks ahead.

What happens when it shows a problem?

We bring you options while there’s still time to use them, like moving a payment, chasing a receivable or drawing on your line of credit. You decide what to do.
