Unlock Wealth Through Financial Fluency

Podcast 44:08 | Download | Spotify| Stitcher | iTunes

In this episode, Dan and Ian discuss the credible and reliable ways to build wealth through your business, based on the work of author Keith Cunningham.

The conversation emphasizes building a financially sound foundation for your business by understanding and applying financial principles, planning effectively, managing risks, and maintaining financial discipline.

As Cunningham says, "Building a business without mastering the financial statements is like building a house on the beach. It’s not if the tide will come in, it’s when. And the tide always comes in."

Enjoy this week's episode as you consider how to build a durable business for long-term success!
