Understand to decide better

Profitability indicates whether your activity generates more revenue than costs — it is an accounting concept. Cash flow indicates whether you have money available in your bank account at a given moment. A company can be profitable and still be short on cash.

From 5 employees, vulnerabilities start to appear. Between 10 and 20, they quietly become costly. Beyond 20, they actively hinder growth. If a one-week absence creates problems, that is already a clear signal.

A well-structured Excel can suffice up to 20–25 employees. An ERP is relevant when flows are too numerous to manage manually. Before investing in an ERP, you need clear processes — otherwise you are automating chaos.
