How do business owners who aren’t good with money learn to use it effectively?

I had a thought recently that money, especially for small business owners, is a tool. Do you know how to use that tool? What do you do if you don't? I admittedly am not the greatest with money and I look for people who are and can learn from them. Just as I would ask bout using a multimeter, wet saw or a jackhammer!

Knowing your strengths and weaknesses is important and asking for help is also!

Has anyone had any success looking in unconventional places for money advice?

    This is a thoughtful perspective. Seeing money framed as a tool rather than just an end goal is a helpful reminder for business owners. Discussions like this encourage healthier financial habits and give the community a chance to reflect on how they manage resources.

    That's a great reminder - Money is a tool! My business coach and I have discussed it, not at length though. I have not looked in unconventional places - Yet! Thanks for the reminder to view money as a tool, to get where I want to be!
