Inventory Eats Cash Before Growth Pays You Back
Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, and TikTok sellers live in the gap between supplier bills, ad spend, inventory turns, chargebacks, and platform payouts. This page turns that mess into a cleaner funding conversation.
Stock Before Sales
Growth usually requires buying product before revenue catches up. That cash gap needs numbers, not optimism.
Spend Before Profit
Paid traffic can scale revenue or burn a hole in the floor. Funding only makes sense if the margin story holds up.
Platform Timing
Marketplace payout lag can make a healthy store feel broke. Timing matters as much as top-line revenue.
Bring the store’s actual engine data.
Monthly sales trend
Revenue, refunds, chargebacks, and seasonality shape the file.
Inventory cycle
Purchase orders, supplier terms, sell-through timing, and landed cost matter.
Platform health
Account standing, payout history, marketplace concentration, and dispute risk matter.
Margin discipline
Capital is gasoline. If the unit economics are trash, gasoline just makes the fire prettier.
