Financial Management Techniques for Your Firm

Your Essential Playbook

When you own or operate a staffing firm, you are responsible for many areas of focus. Financial management is only one aspect – but one of the most important ones. Your firm’s success and growth depends on the health of your finances.

Here a few factors to take into consideration.

Driving revenue. This should always be your organization’s primary focus. Everything you do comes down to what will maximize the amount of cash that comes into your firm. Maximize revenues by hiring high performers and limiting the volume of administrative tasks they are responsible for. Let your sales people focus on sales.

Keeping costs down. When you work hard to bring revenue into your company, the last thing you want to do is waste those efforts. Keep the right number of people on your team to operate efficiently without waste. Automate what you can to keep your team tight and efficient and allow people to focus their attention on what they do best.

Building capital. Having cash on hand enables you to grow your business, take on new projects and prepare for the future. When you have cash reserves, you can take on new opportunities more easily, whether that means accepting new projects, acquiring other firms or attracting game-changing talent.

Funding. Working with a funding provider can keep your staffing business healthy and growing. Funding allows you to hire more, grow your staffing firm and bring on new, larger projects without dipping into your own reserves.

Reduce Inefficiencies. Duplication of efforts is one of the biggest wastes of time (and money) for a staffing firm. Analyze and identify areas that are not operating at their peak. Are your sales people following up promptly? Are your systems “one touch”? Can you quickly find documentation or records? Inefficiency in any of these areas can hit your ROI hard.

With the right financial systems in place, you can operate more efficiently, increase revenues and take your firm to the next level. To learn more, visit our related posts on financial strategies, financial metrics to evaluate and keeping down operational costs.
