# Peak Season Prep: A CFO's Playbook for Cash Flow, Inventory, and Smarter Financing

Every business has a moment when the stakes are highest: a peak season, a product launch, a supplier window that won't wait. The brands that win aren't just the ones with the best products, they're the ones who had the capital to act when it mattered.

For hyper-seasonal businesses, the months before peak are the hardest: low cash, high inventory needs, and mounting pressure to get it right. Fun.com, one of the internet's leading Halloween and costume retailers, knows this better than most.

Hear Matthew Burkett, Fun.com's CFO and a longtime Flexport Capital client, in conversation with Flexport Capital's Matt Michaud as they discuss how working capital has helped Fun.com prepare for their peak season and what that financing playbook can look like for any brand facing the pressure of getting product in position before demand hits.
