Are your financial statements collecting dust because they’re too confusing?

You're not alone. Most business owners know their numbers matter—but don’t know what to look for or what to do with them.

🧠 What You’ll Learn in This Blog Post:

We break down the Home Run Financial System into 6 easy-to-follow steps—all designed to give you complete clarity in less than 7 minutes a month.

✅ 1. Spot the Trends

Quickly identify if your revenue, gross profit, and net income are going up or down. Trends tell the real story—not just a single month’s numbers.

✅ 2. Control Your Expenses

Learn how to check if your expenses are growing faster than your sales—and how to fix it before it kills your bottom line.

✅ 3. Check Your Debt-to-Equity Ratio

Find out if your company is over-leveraged—and whether banks would be willing to lend you more money (Hint: You want this ratio under 2.5).

✅ 4. Use EBITDA to Measure Cash Flow

Cut through the accounting noise and calculate your real cash-generating power. It’s the number investors and lenders care about most.

✅ 5. Fix Mis-Matched Financing

Discover if you’re using short-term money for long-term purchases—a silent killer that’s hurting your cash flow every month.

✅ 6. Understand Your Cash Flow Pattern

Are you burning cash, breaking even, or building reserves? This step helps you see exactly how your business uses and generates cash.

Still Not Sure What Actions to Take?

If you're ready to stop guessing and start making confident, profitable decisions for your farm, let’s schedule a call and walk through this process together.

During your complimentary Clarity Call, we’ll take a look at where your money is going, identify opportunities to improve your cash flow, and uncover any blind spots that might be holding your farm back.
