Constructive Negotiations: Creditors, Lenders, and Partners
Bring a one-page brief: current position, cash forecast, planned actions, and a specific ask. Show good faith with small upfront payments and firm dates, reinforcing trust instead of pleading for vague leniency.
Reshaping Costs Without Killing Momentum
Rebuild the budget from zero, justifying each line on outcomes. Target quick variable wins first, freeze discretionary spend, and protect capabilities that directly generate gross margin or essential customer retention.
Reshaping Costs Without Killing Momentum
Pause low-margin SKUs, slow unproven initiatives, and exit contracts no longer aligned with strategy. Redirect freed capacity to profitable, fast-turn offers that customers demonstrably buy without heavy incentives or discounts.

Tighten discount policies, introduce minimum order sizes, and align price with proven value. Communicate changes with honesty, offering bundles or value-adds that soften impact while protecting contribution margin.
Revenue Rescue: Pricing, Retention, and Prepayments
Contact at-risk customers early with targeted offers and transparent timelines. For churned accounts, run small, time-limited win-back campaigns emphasizing reliability, service improvements, and straightforward value rather than desperate price cuts.
Legal Safeguards and Responsible Governance
Monitor both cash flow and balance sheet tests. If either is at risk, escalate board reviews, document rational decisions, and avoid transactions that unfairly prefer one creditor over others.
