Because dodgy money handling is like putting Vegemite on pavlova – just plain wrong.
Starting your own business is exciting. You’ve got the passion, a great idea, maybe even a flash new logo. But here’s a sobering truth: up to 90% of small businesses fail, and one of the biggest reasons is poor financial management.
Yep — not bad timing, not bad luck — just bad money handling.
It’s not just spending too much. It can look like:
✔️ No proper budget or financial plan
✔️ Forgetting about cash flow until it’s too late
✔️ Mixing personal and business expenses (using the business card for a weekend surf trip)
✔️ Missing tax deadlines or not putting money aside for the ATO
✔️ Making business decisions without knowing the real financial picture
In short: trying to run a business without proper financial systems is like driving across the Nullarbor without a map or water. Not smart, mate.
Remember Pie Face? The cheerful little pie shop that popped up everywhere? They had over 70 stores across Australia and even launched overseas.
But by 2014, things crumbled. Why?
✔️ They grew too quickly without proper financial control
✔️ Spent more than they were earning
✔️ Ignored early warning signs when sales dropped
✔️ Got themselves into a cash flow pickle
Eventually, the company went into voluntary administration and owed millions. Even a business selling Aussie meat pies isn’t safe without the numbers adding up.
