Welcome to the Control Your Cash Podcast
The ultimate guide for small business owners who want to take control of their finances and thrive in today’s competitive marketplace!
Cash flow is the lifeblood of any small business, but did you know that 61% of small business owners struggle with it, according to a study by the US Bureau of Economic Analysis and Intuit? This leads to stress and lack of sleep, impacting our health, relationships, and ability to run a successful business.
Adding to the challenge, the Exit Planning Institute reports that 80-90% of a business owner’s wealth is tied up in their company, making it difficult to access cash for emergencies or opportunities. It’s no surprise that business failures have increased by 226% in the last decade! Did you know that business owners live 5 years less than the average American?
But there’s hope! The Control Your Cash Podcast is dedicated to helping business owners regain control of their finances, incentivize key personnel without giving away equity, and develop a clear exit strategy that safeguards their business and future generations.
Join us as we share insights and practical advice from industry experts, successful business owners, and financial professionals. Our goal is to provide you with the tools and resources you need to take charge of your business’s finances and achieve long-term success.
