Why a price rise can dip first
Raising prices protects margin, but some customers hesitate before accepting the new level, so there can be a short revenue dip before demand settles higher up.
Bridge the transition
A short working-capital facility covers any brief dip while the new pricing beds in, so a sensible margin move doesn't create a cash scare. Model it on your break-even calculator.
Hold your nerve on price
A well-judged price rise usually pays off once demand adjusts. Finance buys the confidence to see the transition through rather than reverting at the first wobble.
