Unbankable with Alex Shvarts

What if the way you negotiate is costing your business money?

We're kicking off Season 2 of Unbankable with Alex Shvarts with Chris Voss, former FBI hostage negotiator and bestselling author of Never Split the Difference.

As the founder and CEO of FundKite, I know that successful business funding, working capital negotiations, and closing deals require more than just numbers. They require trust, communication, and understanding the person across the table.

Chris shares powerful FBI negotiation techniques, sales psychology insights, and real-world strategies that every entrepreneur and business owner can use.

He even puts my negotiation skills to the test. And yes, I tell him how practicing his techniques on my wife almost got me killed!

What is Unbankable with Alex Shvarts?

Most businesses don’t fail because of bad ideas.
They fail because they run out of capital.

Unbankable is a business podcast for entrepreneurs who don’t wait for permission - especially from banks.

I’m Alex Shvarts, Founder & CEO of FundKite. For over a decade, I’ve worked directly with thousands of small and mid-sized business owners across the United States, providing working capital when traditional banks said no.

On this podcast, I sit down with CEOs, founders, operators, and leaders in alternative finance, fintech, private capital, and business growth to talk about what actually builds durable companies.

No hype. No guru talk.
Just real conversations about:
• Scaling a small business
• Working capital strategy
• Alternative financing
• Risk management
• Hiring and firing decisions
• Cash flow discipline
• Profitable growth
• Leadership under pressure
• Building partnerships that last

If you’re a small business owner, entrepreneur, startup founder, operator, or executive looking to grow smarter - this show is for you.

We talk about what happens when banks say no.
We talk about execution.
We talk about capital.

And we talk about building something real.
