What is Business Turnaround?
Business turnaround is a set of strategic actions aimed at reversing the fortunes of a struggling company and returning it to profitability. When a business is in distress, facing financial losses or failing to meet its obligations, a well-structured corporate recovery plan can breathe new life into the company, helping to restore its operational and financial health.
A turnaround is distinct from formal insolvency procedures like administration or liquidation — it is a proactive, solution-focused approach designed to keep the business operational while addressing its core problems. At Bennett Verby, our business rescue services focus on identifying the root causes of financial distress and implementing tailored strategies that deliver tangible results. Whether it’s improving cash flow, reducing costs or renegotiating with creditors, our goal is to help your business regain stability and profitability.
Signs your business might need a turnaround
Recognising the early warning signs of financial distress is critical in initiating a successful turnaround. Often, the longer a business waits to address its challenges, the more difficult it becomes to recover. Here are some common indicators that your business may be in need of a turnaround:
Cash flow problems
Consistent difficulty in managing cash flow, like struggling to meet payroll, pay suppliers or maintain operational expenses, is one of the earliest signs of distress.
Creditor pressure
If you’re receiving constant demands from creditors, court claims or are unable to keep up with loan repayments, this suggests that your business’s financial health is declining.
Declining sales
A significant drop in sales, shrinking profit margins or an inability to meet financial targets over several periods could indicate deeper structural issues.
Missed financial obligations
When your business starts missing payment deadlines for taxes, employee benefits or key operational costs, this is a clear sign that action is needed.
High employee turnover
A sharp increase in employee resignations or morale issues can suggest underlying problems that, if not addressed, could lead to operational difficulties
At Bennett Verby, we offer comprehensive assessments to help you understand your business’s financial position and determine whether a business recovery strategy is right for you.
