Startup Stage

At this stage, your focus is mainly on counting numbers and recording transactions. Your financial needs likely include a bookkeeper or accountant who gives you a report on past numbers. In other words, you are looking backwards through the rearview mirror on a history of what transactions have happened. Your current financial capabilities do not provide you with forward-looking strategic financial planning.

Following are some signs that indicate you are outgrowing the Startup Stage and should start to prepare for the Buildup Stage.

• You need more organization and structure around your financial processes.
• You need to better predict cash flow and profitability.
