Financial guru, Greg Crabtree, through decades of experience and consulting has noted these common challenges business owners face in keeping up with industry trends and implementing effective strategies to sustain growth and profitability:
The COVID-19 pandemic caused unprecedented disruptions across various sectors, making it difficult for business leaders to forecast future trends and make strategic decisions.
Labor is often one of the largest expenses for any business. With rising wages, increased demand for skilled labor, and evolving employment laws, controlling labor costs has become increasingly complex.
Inflation affects the cost of goods, services, and raw materials, increasing operating expenses for businesses. Business owners struggle to accurately measure the real impact of inflation on their costs and often find it challenging to pass these increased costs onto customers
Effective cash flow management is critical for the health of any business, but it remains a common struggle. Delays in customer payments, fluctuating sales cycles, and unexpected expenses can disrupt cash flow.
