CASH FLOW MIKE

BEHIND THE MIC.

Mike Milan is an entrepreneur, financial educator, author, and co-host of Business, Beer & BS. Known as Cash Flow Mike, he helps business owners and their advisors connect financial statements to decisions they can actually use.

An Army veteran with an MBA from Baylor University, Mike has worked across strategic planning, finance, and sales. His teaching focuses on making the numbers useful in everyday business conversations, rather than leaving them in a report.

Through Cash Flow Mike, he created Clear Path to Cash, bringing together financial tools, education, and coaching for accountants, bookkeepers, and fractional CFOs. His work connects cash-flow analysis with the questions owners and advisors face when deciding what to do next.

ON THE SHOW.

Mike brings the finance-first side of the conversation: cash flow, sales, strategic planning, and the trade-offs of building a business. Alongside Blaine, he explores the practical decisions behind the numbers with candid stories and a sense of humor.
