YOU ARE THE CONSULTANT- The Challenges of Cash Flow

While she waits four months for payment, this entrepreneur must meet the payroll for her two employees: pay, rent, utilities, insurance, and a host of other operating expenses: and purchase new computers and other technology to support the work her staff does.
