Decided to close the company — what should I do?

There's one point I'm curious about. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

Don't hesitate to ask; those who don't ask always pay more. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I didn't know that. Pausing growth to breathe is also a strategy, nobody says that.

If it's your first time, start small; scaling comes later.

Great work.

If you have questions, write them; I'll answer as best I can.

We experienced almost the exact same thing last year. Looking profitable on paper but having no cash in the bank is very common.

When making a decision, first look at what data you have on hand. That's all, sorry if I went on too long.

How did you solve this? btw everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth.

The reason for failure isnt one big mistake but the accumulation of small decisions... Correct me if Im wrong.

Let me share what happened to me; it might be useful. Extending terms makes customers happy but turns you into a financing institution.

I'll try it.

Thanks, this was very helpful. Mistaking revenue for cash is the most expensive illusion; trust the bank account.

Saved.

Let's separate the concepts, they're getting mixed up. If you don't write this down from the start, it leads to arguments later.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.
