Some believe you must spend money to make money, but that doesn’t give business owners free reign to rack up debt for business expenses and still expect to turn a profit.  

In this episode, I explore the pros and cons of incurring debt and why a strategic approach to debt management aligned with your business goals is key to sustainability.  

In this episode, you’ll also hear: 

• Identifying good debt vs. bad debt  


• Managing debt with intention  


• Creating a realistic repayment plan 

Must-listen moments:  

[00:01:18 ] But the difference between a good debt and a bad debt is that a good debt is incurred for strategic investments. That means that you are looking to get debt that is going to make you money, not debt to pay down expenses.  

[00:02:44 ] Before taking on any debt, you really need to critically assess whether the expenditure contributes to the business's growth and sustainability. 

[00:07:25 ] Try to manage this debt and get it down to a lower interest rate, lower payments, something that makes it more manageable for you.
