Consultancies
Big Contracts. Thin Margins. Uncertain Cash.
For founders of consulting firms serving large enterprise clients, winning work is only half the battle. Long sales cycles, scope creep, and demanding clients make it hard to know whether you’re actually building profit — or just burning energy.
Why Profits Slip Away in Consulting Firms
You built your consultancy to deliver expertise at the highest level. But keeping the financial engine running smoothly? That’s where things get messy.
- Sales cycles stretch for months, tying up your team.
- Projects expand beyond scope, but your margins don’t.
- Clients expect more value without increasing fees.
- Economic headwinds put budgets on pause.
- Despite the revenue coming in, you’re not sure which clients or projects truly make you money.
The result? You’re stuck in spreadsheets, never fully confident if your company is healthy—or ready for the next stage.
The Hidden Cost of Flying Blind
- You land a new enterprise client and immediately wonder: Will this project be as profitable as we budgeted?
- Your team works nights to deliver, but the financial reports don’t reflect the effort.
- Cash flow swings make it hard to plan staffing or growth.
You’re doing everything right for your clients, but financially, you’re flying blind.
