Why Your Business Bank Account Is Holding You Back (and how to fix it with Relay)

Author: Bob Lotich, Linda Lotich January 11, 2025 Duration: 27:54

I get asked all the time by listeners like you "Hey Bob, what business bank account do you use?" Well, in today's episode, we're diving into the banking solution that was a life-saver for me and that I believe every business owner should know about: Relay Bank.

If you've been struggling with fees, bad customer service, or outdated systems at your current bank, this episode is for you.

Here's What We Cover:

  • My frustrating 17-year journey with business banking (and how I finally found the solution).

  • What makes Relay different: Fee-free accounts, multiple checking accounts, and built-in features designed for entrepreneurs.

  • How Relay integrates with the "Profit First" method to simplify your finances and increase your profits.

  • A sneak peek at Relay's game-changing features, like virtual cards, receipt capture, and ACH payments.

  • Relay's upcoming innovations, including their new credit card and payment request feature launching soon.

What does it look like to manage money well when your faith is the foundation of your life? That’s the central question explored in SeedTime with Bob and Linda Lotich. This isn't just another financial advice show; it's a conversation about integrating biblical principles with the practical realities of budgeting, investing, and building a secure future. Bob and Linda approach finances from a unique perspective, one that challenges conventional wisdom by framing stewardship as a spiritual practice. Their discussions move beyond spreadsheets to consider how financial health directly impacts your marriage, your sense of purpose, and your ability to live generously. Each episode aims to provide actionable steps to simplify your finances, eliminate debt, and cultivate a sense of peace and control over the resources you've been given. The goal is to shift your focus from anxiety about money towards freedom, allowing you to invest your time and energy into what truly matters. If you've ever felt that typical money advice misses the heart of the matter, this podcast offers a different path-one where faith and finances are seamlessly connected. Tune in for honest conversations that blend personal experience with practical strategy, all centered on building a life of purpose and provision.
