Yeah, been there. When I was managing cash flow for our startup, we had the same issue — revenue climbing, but the bank balance felt stuck. It turned out we were locking up too much in receivables and slow-moving stock. What helped me a lot was learning how to calculate the change in working capital properly over different periods. It’s not super complicated once you see a clear example. I found this
source that breaks it down really clearly using real numbers from balance sheets. Once I started applying that, it became easier to see how even small shifts in inventory or payables could mess with cash flow.
