Starting a business takes more than just a good idea—you need a funding strategy that fits your goals, risk tolerance, and lifestyle. In this episode of Monkey Business Radio, we break down the four most common ways entrepreneurs get their ventures off the ground: bootstrapping with personal savings, acquiring debt, selling equity, and using a royalty-based model.
We talk candidly about the financial realities of starting small—selling off personal assets, living lean, and making trade-offs early to build long-term success. You’ll hear real-world stories, from founders who turned a few thousand dollars into multimillion-dollar companies, to legendary gambles like the FedEx founder’s last-ditch trip to Las Vegas.
We also dive into the unique appeal of royalty-based models like franchising—where you can own your business but benefit from systems, support, and a proven brand. If you’re exploring franchise ownership or looking for a smarter way to launch a service business, this episode offers practical insights, cautionary tales, and encouragement to help you make informed decisions.
