EP 193: You’re Making Money… So Why Does Your Business Still Feel Unstable?

Описание: How do you know if your business finances are actually healthy?

Most entrepreneurs measure success by revenue, but revenue alone doesn’t tell the full story. A business can bring in great money and still struggle with unstable cash flow, unpaid owners, and financial stress.

In this episode of Your Business on Purpose, Dawnette Palmore explains how to evaluate the true financial health of your business using her 5-Part Business Financial Health Check.

If you're a business owner wondering:

“Why does my business make money but still feel unstable?”

“Why am I not paying myself consistently?”

“How do I know if my cash flow is actually healthy?”

This episode will walk you through the framework Dawnette uses with entrepreneurs to quickly identify whether their business finances are stable or reactive.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✔ The biggest mistake business owners make when evaluating financial health
✔ The 5 C’s of Business Financial Health
✔ Why revenue alone doesn’t mean your business is sustainable
✔ How to know if your business can survive slower months
✔ Why paying yourself intentionally is a critical financial indicator
✔ How insurance and protection play a role in financial stability

The 5 C’s Dawnette covers:

Clarity – Knowing your numbers

Consistency – Predictable cash flow

Compensation – Paying yourself intentionally

Cushion – Business reserves and breathing room

Coverage – Protection through insurance and planning

If three or more of these areas feel unstable, your business may be operating reactively — and that’s something you can fix.
