Business Financing In Canada: Your Secret Code To Cash Flow Finance & Funding Assets

Looking For A Reality Check On Business Financing Success?

OVERVIEW – Information on business financing in Canada. Cash flow financing and funding assets requires a clear knowledge of market solutions that fit your business, industry, and financial model

Business financing in Canada requires, more than ever, some ' financial intelligence'

on behalf of the owner/financial mgr/entrepreneur. The ability to know how you are funding assets in the short and long term is what cash flow finance is all about. And it might just be time for a reality check! Let's dig in.

Naturally the more you understand your business financial position and the options available to finance your company positions you for success. How you use your business financial intelligence comes from understanding your numbers. Looking for a ‘ secret code ‘ – In fact top experts tell us that those companies that use their business financial intelligence properly when it comes to financing their business stand head and shoulders above their competitors

Financing your company comes from understanding what your real profit is, what the assets on your balance sheet are truly valued ( and therefore financeable ) at, and how those two parts of your business always come back to ... CASH FLOW!

Warren Buffett has another term for all that - He calls it ' owner earnings' and says it’s combo of operating your business on a daily basis , investing in new assets, and ensuring owners also have the ability to properly take money out of the business.

It's easy for most business owners to understand that they need cash to pay bills, buy new equipment and invest in the future - in some cases with real R&D expenses.

When a business is growing it's very easy to focus less on cash flow - when early warning signs start to emerge around cash flow and funding problems it’s time to consider all your business finance alternatives .

Those alternatives? They include

A/R Financing

Inventory Finance

SR&ED Tax Credit Loans (R&D refunds)

Non Bank Asset based lines of credit

Equipment Finance/ Sale Leasebacks

Purchase Order Finance

Unsecured Cash flow loans

Those solutions are of course the alternative to Canadian chartered bank solutions. While alternative financial solutions we've mentioned are typically more expensive they are much cheaper than looking for new owner equity. While the debate seems eternal on whether Canadian banks support the SME sector in Canada it's comforting to know there are in fact more new options than ever before.

Business owners/mgrs that run their business soundly around things like accounts receivable turnover, inventory turns, and proper financing of new assets will always have the upper hand in negotiating new finance solutions. It's also easier because when things head in the wrong direction new forms of financing are more easily negotiable.
