Cash Flow Management

Cash flow is the life blood of any company. Having visibility into both short-term and long-term cash position and needs are imperative to a business owner and management team. Zynn & Associates can assist companies with such visibility developing tools such as weekly rolling cash flow projections, annual budgets and cash projections as well as an overall cash management system.

Budgeting and Forecasting

  • Achieving goals doesn’t happen by chance. A comprehensive budget, developed from the ground up, is the guidance needed to achieving operating and financial goals, providing a road map of operational and financial decisions, monitoring progress and profitability and assisting in real time operational and investment decisions.
  • Developing the KPIs to monitor progress is key to a successful operation. However, not just any KPIs but the “right” KPIs is essential.
  • We have extensive experience guiding companies through a successful budget process and facilitating the development of the proper KPIs.

Enhanced Financial Oversight and Best Practices

  • We can manage your staff and/or assist with staffing needs, both offering staffing or assistance in developing and hiring the proper staff.
  • Review of accounting and finance policies and procedures will ensure efficiency and accuracy of financial reporting.
  • A review of internal controls will also provide assurance of proper practices and oversight.

Guidance and Coaching of Internal Staff

Have a strong staff that will need oversite, guidance and coaching as the business grows and becomes more complex? At Zynn & Associates, we take pride in assisting your staff to meet its maximum potential and provide support to help your key staff learn and grow professionally.

Financial Strategy and Planning

Growing your business, developing a new product line, restructuring or thinking of growth through acquisition? Our staff of experienced accounting professionals as well as experienced CEOs can assist with strategic planning, financial strategy and developing a roadmap to accomplish your goals.

Raising Capital

If your business is contemplating raising capital (equity transaction, bank relationship, lines of credit), our team has extensive experience both raising capital and reporting/compliance after a successful capital raise.

ROI/Informed Decision Making

Contemplating a large investment in your business or a significant capital purchase? We can assist with evaluating investment options and calculating the ROI of such an investment/purchase to assist with decision making and approval.

Compensation Plans

Compensation plans require alignment with the company goals and strategy. While this sounds easy, properly achieving this alignment is complex and many compensation plans have created unplanned and unwanted incentives not aligned with the overall company goals.

We also have experience managing stock option plans and reporting, including assistance with 409 (A) valuations.

Our team has experience working with your management team or human resource team in developing effective bonus plans and sales commission plans to align employees and increase growth and profitability.
