Mom-and-pop businesses have a mindset that if they are able to manage the books, then they are good. But to build a scalable business, you need to implement the FP&A process sooner rather than later. The FP&A process can help with the forward-looking statements and planning the cash flow. It might also help identify the red flags from the perspective of an investor, whether you want to raise capital, acquire a leveraged company, or sell the company.

In today's episode, our guest, Chris Reilly, discusses how to start the FP&A process. He also describes other concepts, such as why businesses need to be on three-statement models before they can start on their FP&A journey. Finally, he discusses several other concepts, such as Leveraged buyouts, the importance of seller discretionary income, and the red flags that investors look for in an FP&A model.
