Financial analysis and planning for business owners · External FP&A
Can your business do better? Your numbers say whether, and where.
Every month we explain what happened to your profit and your cash, and what to do about it. For U.S. privately held businesses with US$2–30 million in revenue that already have accounting in place and need a clearer view of their numbers.
A 20-minute conversation to understand your business and see whether Finanzap can help. Nothing to prepare.

Gross profit vs. budget, US$ thousands
What deserves attention: revenue is ahead of budget, but discounts gave back almost all of the extra gross profit.What happened: the extra volume came from Industrial supplies (+13.9% against budget). It was bought with discounts.Where it sits: that line’s discount went from 4.0% to 8.6%, mostly in four accounts. A 6% ceiling is worth about $24K a month.What is coming: cash falls below the $200K minimum in weeks 8 to 10. There is time to act.
Sound familiar?
You have the numbers. The hard part is deciding with them.
Your books are in order and the reports arrive on time. And still:
- Margins move without clear reasons
- Discounts are frequent, not strategic
- Cash is tighter than expected
- Decisions rely on intuition
- Opportunities are not prioritized
Tick the ones that sound familiar. We will tell you what answers each one.
This is what answers what you ticked:
Let’s talk about what you ticked
Your message will already carry these topics. The first conversation takes 20 minutes.
What you receive
A report every month, and a conversation every week to decide with it.
- Week 1: the report and the direction
- What changed and why, in green what is worth continuing and in red what needs to stop, plus cash for the next 13 weeks. With that, the direction is set.
- Weeks 2 to 4: from direction to a concrete plan
- One conversation a week: go deeper into the results, weigh the options, and settle what gets done, who owns it and how it is measured.
- The follow-up
- Each report shows how the agreed actions are going.
