As an entrepreneur, business finances are a frequent source of tension. Whether facing payroll challenges or insufficient cash flow for growth, every business owner must make pivotal decisions to resolve the issues. Rather than waiting for a financial crisis, how can you take proactive measures to protect your company?

Banks are trusted capital sources for businesses since they’re cost-effective and risk-averse. As a business banker and consultant to entrepreneurs, Kevin Roddey emphasizes applying for a loan in advance to prepare for emergencies. Securing capital, however, requires demonstrating financial history, a sound business model, and a reputable culture. Additionally, building a rapport with bankers and financial institutions increases funding access.

In this episode of EO Nashville’s The Decision, Eric Jackson and Robert Hartline speak with Kevin Roddey, Pinnacle Financial Partners’ Vice President, about managing financial issues in business. Kevin shares how a people-first culture impacted Pinnacle, the value of EO presentations, and notable financial trends and challenges in the banking industry.
