Create a financial structure that supports your business ambitions.

To effectively support your business ambitions, it is crucial to establish a strong financial structure. This structure must also be flexible to adapt to market fluctuations and aim to maximize your profitability. Thus, you prepare your business for stable growth, in perfect alignment with your goals.

Be mindful of recurring symptoms of poor financial health and take action before it’s too late.

Symptoms of poor financial health

Decrease or complete absence of profitability: This can result from a poor business strategy, prices lower than your total costs, or a lack of control over all your costs.
Liquidity shortfall: This is characterized by a company’s inability to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations, resulting in payment delays, difficulties in paying bills, and increased reliance on borrowed capital.
Absence of adequate financial control: No necessary measures are implemented to monitor and manage a company’s financial activities properly, leading to poor resource allocation, a lack of transparency, and an increase in financial risks.
Ineffective inventory management: Excessive stock results in additional costs and increases the risks of losses or deterioration. Conversely, having insufficient stock levels can lead to stockouts, potentially resulting in the loss of customers.
Rapid growth: A rapid increase in business volume can easily lead to an excessive rise in debts and operational costs, thereby jeopardizing the financial stability of the company.
Lack of budget planning: The absence of budget planning is often the main cause of a company’s bankruptcy. Without effective budget management, the company loses control of its finances, leading to poor resource allocation, cash flow problems, and difficulty adapting to market fluctuations.

What our clients say about ACM

“We made the decision to proceed with ACM following our meeting with Benoit. The next morning, we had our first meeting with Hatem, Denis, and Imad. After introducing themselves and explaining how the collaboration would unfold, they got to work on the same day. Attuned to the current situation of the company and our vision, they provided concrete solutions that align with the needs and values of the company and guided us in their implementation. Barely a month after the team’s departure, we already see several improvements. Very satisfied! Thanks to the entire team.”
