Business – Finance Strategy
COGS, break-even point, menu and prices: know what to do to get the fastest cash flow.
The question for this scope of work is: how do you get cash flow as quickly as possible? The answer comes from your own business's numbers, not from general theory. Stratego's strength is F&B: menu, pricing, location, and chain expansion.
When you need it
- You want to get past your break-even point sooner but don't know where to start.
- Prices and menu are set by feel, without fully accounting for COGS.
- You want to open a second location without breaking the one currently running.
- You need a clear enough plan before raising capital.
