The journey to self-development is not an easy one but necessary. It's a lifelong process that helps you assess where you are right now and how you can upgrade your skills to reach your full potential. Many people try to make sense of where they want to go but quit too easily once they find out that the journey is difficult.

In this episode of Small Business Finance Podcast, join me as I talk with Simone Harris, Platinum Affiliate of SupaClix and learn how she managed her way from being a broke single mom to a boss of her own business. Listen and maybe gain insights on how you can do it too.

When should you start your journey to financial independence? Ideally, the best time to start is yesterday, but it's never too late to start. If you don't take action now, it's going to get harder and harder. Things are getting more and more expensive. Wages are not going up, but expenses will. So the sooner you start, the better it is.  However, these days people are reluctant to talk about money. They don't talk about wealth creation or financial freedom. As a result, most people procrastinate or fear getting into retirement planning or financial planning.

In this week's episode of Small Business Finance Podcast, join me as I talk with our guest, William Tong, from 3 Monkeys Property Investments. Together, we talk about starting your journey to financial independence and how wealth creation is not only about money but also about health. This week's episode is all about understanding what you want in life and how to get there. So have a listen and learn how to flip around your helpless mindset into one with complete control.

Changes will always come hand in hand with business, especially when we're talking about when things get rough and uncertain. You need to change, and a lot of people aren't willing to do that. You need to change your product, change the way you do business, change the people you're working with, and change the things you do daily.

In this episode of Small Business Finance, join me as I talk with Kate Macauley and Matt Rollo, the owners of the successful business venture, Hashtag Burgers & Waffle. In this episode, we talk about their origins and how they got to where they are despite building a business at a time of great uncertainty and change.

Lending is part and parcel of any business. When you open a company, you need to consider the funds you need and how you will get to where you want to go. Lending helps you kickstart your journey to success.

The advantage of traditional finance is that it generally has lower interests so that paying won't be much of a hassle. The downside is that you can only access it when your business is already strong and steady. If you're an up-and-coming business, alternative finance is the way to go. It gets you the loan that you need when you need it.

In this episode of Small Business Finance Podcast, join me as I sit down and talk with Chris Bhagwan, a Partner Manager of Banjo-Business Loans. Together, we discuss everything about alternative finance and how it gets you bank-ready for the future.

The industry is changing. It's changing in the sense that technology is really driving the consumer transaction in finance a lot more than it was three or four years ago, which was still a very manual process. You have to adjust and adapt to the things happening around you. Spend time in the marketplace and talk to the people.

You need to remain at the heart of everything to know where you're going to go and how you will position yourself well in the future.

In this episode of Small Business Finance, join me as I talk with Angelo Lauro, the Managing Director from DBS Finance Group. Together, we discuss how to navigate the marketplace as it continuously changes and evolves. Listen and gather some insights on how to become an agile business in a fast-changing world.

Comparing your business with the competition is not always a good idea. As much as it's crucial for you to keep your finger on the pulse of your market, one must not lose your own brand. If you obsess over every little thing that your competitor is doing, you'll go insane! You need to plan carefully and stay true to your brand.

In today's Small Business Finance Podcast episode, I sit down and talk with Tony and Karen Austin, the owners of Aussie Spas 2U, a world-class spa company for Brisbane and Goldcoast areas.
