The Truth About Business Loans and Cash Flow | Snohomish Brown | Growing Money with Sean Trace

Being busy doesn’t automatically mean your business is making money. In this episode of Growing Money with Sean Trace, I sit down with Dr. Snohomish Brown, senior business advisor with Rock Financial and a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, to break down what business owners really need to understand about cash flow, business funding, debt, and financial health. We talk about why profitable businesses can still run out of cash, why the best time to explore business financing is often before you desperately need it, and how working capital, lines of credit, SBA loans, equipment financing, and accounts receivable funding can serve very different purposes. We also dig into the warning signs business owners shouldn’t ignore, from declining balances and payroll stress to avoiding the numbers altogether. The biggest lesson keeps coming back to one thing: know your numbers. Revenue might look exciting, but profit, cash flow, customer acquisition costs, margins, and cash runway are what keep a business alive.What’s one number in your business you know you should be paying more attention to?
