Act as a small business finance advisor. Last quarter's numbers: [revenue, major costs, ending cash]. Known upcoming changes: [hires, contracts ending, big bills]. Slow months in my business: [seasonality]. Current cash buffer: [weeks of runway].
Run the X-ray:
1. Build a simple 13-week cash projection table structure: starting cash, weekly inflows by source, weekly outflows by category, running balance. I will fill the numbers.
2. Name the 3 weeks most likely to go tight and why, based on my seasonality and known changes.
3. The levers ranked by speed: what to pull if a tight week appears (payment terms, expense pauses, credit line) with the cost of each.
4. The early warning number: one weekly metric that tells me trouble is coming before the balance does.
5. The one structural fix that would have prevented my closest call last quarter.
