As a financial expert, real estate mogul and a CFO - I wanted to share my expertise on handling cash flows within an LLC. It is crucial to follow best practices in order to maintain the most profit for your business.

1. Cash Flow: Best
Practices for LLC

2. If you’re concerned about cash flow, you’re not alone. Cash
flow involves many things, including collecting payments, covering
shortfalls, controlling disbursements, investing idle funds, forecasting
cash needs, and compensating the banks, for they do take care of many
of these things. It’s important to have solid relationships with your tax
and accounting staffs if you’re going to run an LLC. You’ll also want to
rely on powerful electronic equipment to make sure that you are able
to download everything you need and run reports when necessary.

3. First, you’ll want to decide on your banking partners who will take care
of most of your work for you. Many banks allow you to do just about
everything electronically, which is a good thing, but it may require
some research to figure out which bank will work for you. You’ll want to
look carefully at what your prospective banks offer, and compare
closely their fees and services. This will help you in the long run as you
move toward your goal of managing an effective business.

4. Next, you’ll want to come up with a forecasting model for your cash.
You’ll want to gather all your qualitative and quantitative evidence and
make sure that you keep records of all your expenses for this purpose.
You can also use a rolling forecast, which can help you through more
difficult periods with your cash flow.

5. After that, you’ll want to make sure you get the most out of your
investments, for the lowest cost. You’ll need to come up with a working
investment portfolio, and be sure to keep up with all the money you’ve
invested and how it is best taken care of in investments.

6. Finally, you’ll want to look at your system regularly. Let’s face it—things
change. You never know when you’ll need to change your policy for
how you’re dealing with your cash, and it can’t hurt to take regular
inventory of your money and make sure you’re on the right path with
everything. Hopefully, by now you will have a good accountant and
bank in place, so those folks can help you organize what you need to
organize as you move toward managing your business.

7. If you want to go international, you can perhaps do that too, but be
sure to talk with your accountant and the representatives at your bank
before you make this kind of decision. Just get on the right track first,
and then you can build on what you have.
