Small business funding, sales, and rejection - this is the real side of building a business.

I’m Alex Shvarts, founder of FundKite, and in this episode of the Unbankable Podcast, I sit down with Kevin Richardson, founder of Splash Advance - a funding company that scaled fast and made its way onto the Inc. 5000 list in just a few years.

Kevin works with business owners every single day, helping them navigate funding, cash flow, and the realities of getting deals done - and in this conversation, we go deep into what actually happens behind the scenes.

We talk about:

– why most entrepreneurs fail at handling rejection
– the hardest conversations in funding and sales
– how to set real expectations with clients
– scaling a business without breaking it
– hiring, firing, and building a real team
– and what actually creates long-term success

This is not theory - this is real experience from people who are in the trenches every day.

How do YOU handle rejection in business? Do you push harder or walk away?
