Your P&L says you made a profit… so why is there no money in the bank? In Episode 86 of The Meaning Business Podcast, Bruce Coudrey and Peter Spinda unpack one of the most common and misunderstood business problems: being profitable on paper but struggling with cash flow. Bruce shares a real story from his early business days, where sales were booming, the business was profitable, and yet the bank balance kept falling. The reason? Cash was tied up in debtors, stock, working capital and the growing costs of running the business. Bruce and Pete explain the difference between profit and cash flow, why rapid growth can actually create financial pressure, and how business owners can find where their money is really going. They also cover cash flow forecasting, managing debtors and inventory, understanding your balance sheet, improving staff efficiency, protecting money set aside for GST and tax, and why having cash in the bank doesn’t always mean that money is yours to spend. If you’ve ever looked at your profit and loss statement and thought, “Where’s the cash?”, this episode will help you understand exactly what’s happening. Build it better. Grow it smarter.

What would you buy, hold or sell if your own money was on the line? In this episode of The Meaning Business Podcast , Bruce Coudrey and Peter Spinda play Buy, Hold or Sell: Business Edition — using real Australian business-for-sale listings to put their business instincts to the test. Jay throws a series of real listings at Bruce and Peter with nothing more than the information available to potential buyers. They have to decide: would they buy it, hold it, or sell it? The businesses range from an online wooden ship model store and motorcycle dealership to an AI automation platform, telehealth business, e-commerce businesses, tourism operators, commercial services and even a business with its own fully equipped dungeon. Some look like great investments. Some raise immediate red flags. And others prove that whether a business is worth buying often depends just as much on the buyer as the numbers. Along the way, Bruce and Peter break down what catches their attention in a business listing, including asking price, profit, assets, industry trends, barriers to entry, scalability and whether you’re buying a genuine business — or simply buying yourself a job. Play along: would you BUY, HOLD or SELL each business? If you’re looking at businesses for sale in Australia , considering buying an existing business, or just want to test your own business instincts against two experienced dealmakers, play along and see how your picks compare.
