Few players in the remodeling space are strangers to the cash crunch.

In this episode of Remodeling Mastery, Mark delves into the how's and why's of cash flow: why it matters so much, how much cash you should have on hand, ways to improve your cash flow and more.

Erika Taylor writes: “On the wall of my office is an old Japanese woodprint of a geisha walking home after a long night of geisha-ing. It’s just dawn, and she carries a lit paper lantern at her side. The geisha’s solitary figure is beautiful and a little melancholy.
The print is part of the shin-hanga art movement of the early 1900s. Shin-hanga was a pushback against the rapid industrialization of Japan, and all of the images are romanticized."

Sal Alfano writes: “Automated phone systems drive me crazy. If I hear one more recorded message asking me to “listen carefully because our menu options have changed,” my head will explode.
My most recent encounter came while trying to retrieve information about my mother’s retirement account from Prudential Financial. Why was I calling instead of using the Prudential website? Good question, because frankly, I’ve had some great experiences with online customer service."

Paul Winans writes: “Keep a running list of behaviors your team finds unacceptable in a client, prepare engagement guidelines and review the guidelines with potential clients.
Bill, a consulting client, sent me the following:
Hey Paul, we worked for a client three years ago that did not behave well and we agreed as a company we would never work for again. They have reached back out again and want to do another larger project. I tried dodging her email, but on her third phone call I decided to send her an email."

Michael Stone writes: “Everyone, and I do mean everyone, who has ever compiled an estimate has made a math error that put knots in their stomach once it was realized. I've been down that path more than once. Until a contract has been signed, you aren't bound by a quote. Admit you made a mistake and revise the price. There's an excellent chance you'll lose the job, and that's why you don't want to make mistakes in the first place."
