Upside/Downside - poor profits and cash flow got you down?

Matt Cooley

Poor profits and cash flow got you down?

My name is Matt Cooley and value creation has always been central to my career, from start-ups to multi-billion-dollar product lines.  As a finance executive at successful companies, I've noticed a thing or two about what creates versus destroys value.   In this podcast, finance business partners, managers and business owners learn techniques and common sense strategies to grow profits and cash flow.

Follow Upside/Downside on your favorite podcast platform today and join me and my esteemed pals as we explore value creation and share a few laughs on the way to higher profits and cash flow.

If your organization needs more customized assistance, I sometimes accept brief consulting engagements that can be performed after hours such as:

-Reviewing business plans

-SWOT analyses

-Listening to your business challenges and discussing possible solutions


All revenues after taxes earned from consulting engagements are donated to registered charities working on challenges in the United States. 


Contact me on LinkedIn or at mattcooley650@gmail.com.


I wish you the best on your value creation journey!
