About this listen
Starting a business is exciting—figuring out how to fund it? That’s where the real pressure kicks in.
When I opened my first pharmacy, I thought I had it all covered: savings, a solid budget, and a well-thought-out plan. But then reality hit—shopfitting costs soared, stock drained our account, and NHS payments were delayed for months.
Before we even opened the doors, we were almost out of money.
🎙️ In this episode of Behind the Counter: Pharmacy and Beyond, I share:
• The real costs of starting a pharmacy that no one talks about
• How we used personal loans, family support, and savings to survive
• The funding mistakes that nearly broke our startup
• What I would do differently if I had to fund my pharmacy again today
If you’re planning to start your own pharmacy—or any business—this episode will give you a real-world look at how to handle the money side of things, and the tough decisions you might need to make.
💬 Have you struggled with funding a business? Share your experience—let’s keep the conversation going.
