Business Growth: 7 Reports Every Small Business Owner Should Check Monthly

Revenue by month and by client

Spot seasonality and dependence on a few customers. If one client is over 30% of revenue, diversify.

Outstanding and ageing

Total receivables split into 0-30, 31-60 and 60+ days. Anything beyond 60 needs a call today.

GST liability

Output tax minus eligible ITC — the cash you must keep aside by the 20th.

Top products and margins

Rank by revenue and by margin; often they differ. Push high-margin items.

Quotation conversion rate

Accepted quotes ÷ sent quotes. Below 30%? Revisit pricing or follow-up speed. All seven live on the SmartGST dashboard and Reports page.
