Before online tools allowed companies to see exactly where their customers were coming from, advertising was a big old guessing game. Was a new buyer drawn in by a particular promotion? No way to tell! Was an expensive ad buy really worth it, in terms of ROI? Who knows! Let’s throw more at the wall and hope that it sticks. Tracking tools helped all types of businesses in the modern era avoid groping for answers in the dark, and they’re especially effective for SaaS companies that operate almost

But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l

Nationwide competency? So many extremely qualified, well educated, experiences and competent appraisers refuse to work for Class and other similar companies. Their “ad” really begs the question, why are they not being investigated? Possible AIR violations and strong arming appraisers? Or incompetent appraisers? Also, they have staff appraisers, and that alone is a conflict of interest, well, to anyone with at least half of a functioning brain.

AS NOTED IN BILL’S REPLY: “If a ROV is requested, an explanation is required from the supplying party/parties as to why the new sales are superior to the appraisers comps.” LET US NOT FORGET THIS. Do not reply to ROV’s unless this is included by the lender. Totally agree, they have less experienced Apprasiers WHO will also make the numbers work for the AMC.
