Financing Your Business

For many business owners, scaling their business is sometimes more difficult than when they were just starting. This is because transitioning from a small scale to a larger one has its own set of challenges and growing pains that not everyone is capable of overcoming.

Ron Escoffery is a serial entrepreneur who’s faced these challenges himself, failed more than once, but has ultimately come out on top. He’s published three books on his experiences and, in this new podcast, is broadening the discussion on what it means to build true wealth and how to achieve it.

On the fourth episode of the African-American Business Owners Podcast, Ron Escoffery discusses the importance of building a relationship with your bank, how to start understanding your business by making use of a financial management tool, and the added advantage of having a mentor.
