In this concise, metaphor‑driven video, Mark Osborne, MBA, CEPA®, warns business owners that cash flow can behave like a hungry alligator: if it isn’t properly fed and managed, it will turn on the business and cause failure. He explains why many companies feel “eaten” by cash‑flow problems, linking poor cash‑flow management to weak profitability. Osborne then outlines the need for disciplined cash‑flow monitoring, forecasting, and aligning cash inflows with outflows to keep the metaphorical alligator under control. The video serves as a call to action for leaders to adopt proactive cash‑flow practices, use financial metrics, and treat cash flow as a core operational priority rather than an after‑thought.
