Cash Flow Forecasting
Know exactly what's coming with clear, forward-looking cash flow forecasting — so you can plan for tax, investment and growth with confidence.
Cash flow is the number one reason profitable businesses still run into trouble — and the easiest thing to get on top of with the right support. We build clear, forward-looking cash flow forecasts that show what's coming in, what's going out and what's left, weeks and months ahead — so you're never caught out by a quiet month, a big tax bill or a slow-paying customer. Using live data from Xero, we turn your numbers into a rolling view you can actually act on: model the impact of hiring, investment or a downturn before you commit, plan for VAT and tax as you go, and make decisions from a position of confidence rather than guesswork. It's practical, jargon-free forecasting for businesses across Tamworth, Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, Solihull and Burton upon Trent — and beyond, thanks to cloud accounting.
What's Included
Who It's For
Our Cash Flow Forecasting service is ideal if you:
- Want to stop worrying about cash and start planning ahead.
- Are investing, hiring or growing and need to model the impact first.
- Have felt the stress of an unexpected bill or a tight month.
Why Choose CASS?
A forecast is only useful if it's clear, current and built around your business. At CASS we combine real-time Xero data with practical commercial insight to give you a forward view you can genuinely rely on — not a spreadsheet that's out of date the moment it's built. With a dedicated point of contact and regular reviews, we help you see what's coming, plan for tax and investment, and make confident decisions all year round. It's the difference between reacting to cash flow and staying firmly in control of it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Related guidance
More on cash flow forecasting, answered
How often should I look at my management accounts?
Monthly for most businesses, and within a few weeks of the month ending — late figures are history, not management information. Quarterly can be enough if the business is stable and predictable, but if cash is tight or growing quickly, monthly is the minimum.
Read the answerCan you help improve my profitability?
Yes. We can review margins, pricing, overheads and performance trends to identify where profit may be improved.
Read the answerCan you help me plan for buying equipment?
Yes. We can help you understand your financial position, prepare cash-flow forecasts and financial models, and prepare financial information for a lender. We can model purchase, lease and finance options side by side and show the effect on cash flow and profitability, and introduce you to a specialist adviser where appropriate, explaining our role and any referral arrangement first. Investment, pension product and other specialist recommendations should come from an adviser authorised for that work, and finance approval and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.

Yes. We can model the likely impact of new staff, equipment, premises, pricing changes and other growth decisions before you commit.

Absolutely fantastic service from the team at CASS, (especially Paul). Not only did they support us with our book-keeping/accounting and EPOS system, but they genuinely went above and beyond — even helping us out of hours and on a Sunday to get everything set up properly. Nothing was too much trouble, and their support has been a massive part of getting our pet shop up and running smoothly from day one. We couldn’t be happier with the service we’ve received and honestly couldn’t have done it without them. Thanks again Paul and the team at CASS — truly appreciated! X
