Financing for Entrepreneurs (with special guest, Candace Hrycan)
Cash flow projections. Key Performance Indicators. Working Capital. Business Plans. Credit Scores.
If you are a business owner, you need to know and understand what these phrases mean for you and your business. But, let’s face it - most of us do not enjoy pouring over spreadsheets and looking at numbers. Do not fear - my friend Candace Hrycan is here to break it down for you! Candace has over a decade of experience in the commercial banking world - in this episode we discuss: (1) What new business owners need to know about business planning, teamwork, and financing; (2) What business owners in the growth phase of their business need to keep in mind in order to maximize their profits and cash flow (27:03); and (3) Credit Scores - how to check your own credit history and how to improve upon a “bad” credit history (45:30).
