How to do other things besides finance your biz

There were some valuable insights in regards to financing your business. However there were very lengthy chapters on how to do other things, like avoid scams. I really liked the chapter on building business credit and differentiating personal credit from biz. But be prepared to skip a few chapters that probably wont amuse you if you came for what the title beholds

Where is the Resource Section?

Book keeps referencing a "Resource Section" yet there is no PDF to be found. This seem to be a common trend with Audible.

Very informative!

Great resource for financing a small business. Some of the info got a bit heavy in parts and needed to digest in smaller portions. If you are interested in acquiring financing for your business and you’re not sure where to start, this is a good start.
