Why Are Small Businesses Busy but Still Short of Money?

I have noticed that some small businesses make sales almost every day and still have little money left at the end of the month. The problem is not always low sales. Untracked expenses, mixing personal and business funds, excessive customer credit, underpricing, and poor stock-cost calculations can quietly drain profit. A business may look successful because customers keep coming, yet the owner may not know the actual profit on each sale. Have you experienced a month with plenty of sales but no money to show for it? What do you think causes these losses most often?
