			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I deal with S1 attorneys all day every day and most of them are entrepreneurial, hard working and interested in helping you in any way they can but there are also a lot of bad ones out there. If you are taking your company public the last thing you want is a broke as a joke s1 filing agent.</p>
<p>I recently had the misfortune of working with (for a very short time I might add) a New Jersey lawyer who had us all convinced by her pepper gray hair and fluency of legal jargon as a second language and quick calls to what she had us convinced where big shot investors who had millions to put into this and other transactions we brought her way.</p>
<p>During initial negotiations she and I sat down in a coffee shop and went over her equity position and fees in the transactions that she&#8217;d be working on for us and it was pretty simple and straight forward. I would have my team organize and structure the company and transaction and she would simply file the s1 in exchange for 2% to 3% equity. Pretty nice payday for minimal work and gaining equity in an average company producing $5m+ per year.<span id="more-754"></span></p>
<p>Ah yes, but when it sounds too good to be true it is and when it seems too easy of a negotiation&#8230;it is! When she sent us the contract she felt the need to add a few percentage points to the tune of 7%, making a total of 10% equity and she also was charging an extra $10k to fill in the blanks on your prototypical PPM doc. Why did she jack up the price? Her response was, &#8220;This S1 will have comments&#8221;. I almost died laughing. Of course it&#8217;s going to have comments with the SEC, that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s called the &#8216;comments&#8217; stage.</p>
<p>We talked her into taking 2 payments for the $10k, half upfront and half on completion but we really should have dumped her right there. She didn&#8217;t want to keep her word on that either so I paid her the last payment before the fee was due and just got rid of her.</p>
<p>Turns out she never filed an s1 before and her whole act was a sham. She was desperate for cash and nickled and dimed us the whole time. I laugh about it now but it wasn&#8217;t funny when it happened. We lost over a month of transaction time because she couldn&#8217;t tell the truth.</p>
<p>The client was going public on the OTCBB with a valuation of around $5m, her suggestion was to raise capital pre public for $1 per share because the company would have a hard time qualifying for the NASDAQ if it started at anything less than $1. This company was years away from even considering the NASDAQ as an option but her in experience and need to prolong the deal to rape us for fees was so blatant and careless that she did everything she could to add as much confusion to the deal as possible so that no one knew what was going on, therefore she got away with a lot and was able to pick our pockets for weeks before we got rid of her.</p>
<p>The moral of the story is this: not all attorneys are rich. The truth is, most are very modest as far as their earnings. There is too much competition these days so there are predatory lawyers out there that will lie, double talk, triple talk and run you around in circles. All the while the clock is ticking and they are billing you like it&#8217;s going out of style. Watch your back with the dead broke S1 lawyer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Private Placement Memorandum authoring and the process of taking one&#8217;s company public are services that require extensive experience and the ability to look at a deal objectively and peripherally to evaluate all the angles to enhance the ability of the client to achieve funding in a timely manner.</p>
<p>Many times, when I&#8217;m hired to structure a company before funding, they will be under the impression that my evaluation is a mere formality and they are ready to go. Often I&#8217;m the bearer of bad news when I have to break it to the client that their company has more holes than Swiss cheese and 30 to 60 days away from starting the fund raising process.</p>
<p>They will often get a second and then third opinion and usually run into the same thing before they eventually find their way back to our firm. As they call around to consulting firms they perpetually experience the &#8216;hard sell&#8217; by firms who &#8216;need&#8217; the business because they lack the rewards and referrals that come with cultivating each client relationship because they take on and spit out deals so fast they hardly remember their client&#8217;s name during the transaction.<span id="more-514"></span></p>
<p>This mentality dominates the larger firms because of their gargantuan overhead while the boutique firms can take a more personal approach because they have a steady flow of business and referrals because they are not stressed about bringing in the next big deal so they can meet payroll and keep their lights on. The smaller companies that focus on turnaround consulting, private placement memorandum authoring, top tier business plan writing and taking companies public usually take a one on one approach to the consulting process and will rarely pressure clients to sign on because their phone is ringing off the hook with previous clients who want to hire them for the next stage in the evolution of their company&#8217;s growth.</p>
<p>This business is all about relationships. Ditch the consultant that applies the high pressure sales tactics and seek out the smaller, more personalized groups that don&#8217;t &#8216;need&#8217; your business but will cultivate and value it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Private Placement Memorandums and Direct Public Offerings, the most common mistakes made. When gearing up to raise capital it is typically a business owners first instinct to simply throw together a business plan and find the cheapest company to put together the private placement memorandum and then seek funding. What these professionals don&#8217;t realize is that they are doing things in reverse and often times a PPM is not a standalone solution to financial needs.</p>
<p>The first problem is the most companies will first write a business plan and cheap PPM and look for a capital solutions last, when strategically speaking, one should first find a full service solution who has a database of investors ready to fund properly structured corporations with well authored business plans and private placement memos. After you find a company that has a ready network of seasoned investors you will often find that this firm will also structure your business and documents so that you are able to attract the attention of these investors. Next, don&#8217;t make the mistake of hiring just anybody to write your biz plan. You need to find a professional author who is well rooted in the art of technical writing and has a solid comprehension of your industry.</p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s time to write the PPM. Here is a warning that will most likely go in one ear and out the other but you must never choose the cheapest service for your PPM you will regret it and this is a guarantee. Investors see these documents all day everyday and they know a template when they see it. Don&#8217;t believe for a second that you will get a viable private placement memo that will actually achieve funding for anything less than $3,000; it&#8217;s just not going to happen. There is too much work involved in putting a fund-able strategy together and you&#8217;ll never find an experienced firm to do it for cheap.<span id="more-511"></span></p>
<p>The moral of the story is to first find an investor finder solution with a solid network of investors, second have this company write your business plan and private placement memorandum to fit the needs of their investor base and lastly, talk to this consultant about helping you perform a DPO (Direct Public Offering) to their group. This is what separates the men from the boys in the venture capital consulting industry.</p>
<p>Legitimate consultants who stand behind their work will take your PPM directly to their investor base and help you raise capital quickly. In return for this service the company may want a modest equity position in addition to their fee but it is always worth it and typically they will take the final step and have their investors pay to take your company public. This is the ultimate for any company that is seeking a long term funding solution.</p>
<p>Remember the order: 1. Find an investor finder 2. Have that company write your biz plan and PPM 3. Convince the firm to perform a DPO for fast funding 4. Offer some equity to sweeten the pot so that they take you public!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[So many companies dream of going public both as a growth and exit strategy but unfortunately few succeed with this process. The third party audit, sponsoring of the S1 and 211 by a market maker and SEC comments stage is just one of the obstacles involved with taking a company public. The attempt at going public and actually achieving a symbol are two entirely different things and if you are lucky enough to achieve a symbol there's a completely separate area of expertise needed to keep your stock trading and to preserve a company's longevity in the marketplace.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So many companies dream of going public both as a growth and exit strategy but unfortunately few succeed with this process. The third party audit, sponsoring of the S1 and 211 by a market maker and SEC comments stage is just one of the obstacles involved with taking a company public. The attempt at going public and actually achieving a symbol are two entirely different things and if you are lucky enough to achieve a symbol there&#8217;s a completely separate area of expertise needed to keep your stock trading and to preserve a company&#8217;s longevity in the marketplace.</p>
<p>Here are some things you need to keep in mind when gearing up to take your company public. Forget everything that you&#8217;ve read and heard and pay attention to what you&#8217;re about to read because this is the straight forward, objective reality of the process. First, do not hire an attorney to take you public as they will take you on a long drawn out process to get as many billable hours as possible, instead, hire a consulting firm whose sole business model is to take companies public and take advantage of the relationships that they have with attorneys. This is the first rule: hire a consulting firm that offers a complete A to Z turn-key solution for taking a company through the process of going public, achieving a symbol and preserving the trade with a solid, ongoing post public investor relations strategy.</p>
<p>Next, when you&#8217;ve decided on a consulting firm evaluate their team, don&#8217;t ask for references to call to research their track record, better yet, ask for symbols of previous clients and links to the Edgar database to check out current deals in the comments stage. The proof is in the empirical track record, not potentially fraudulent phone references that are easily engineered and BS.<span id="more-505"></span></p>
<p>Now look at their team. Make sure that the consulting group has a solid legal team, market makers, investor relations team, auditing group and someone well versed in the comments stage response as this can be one of the major hang-ups in achieving your symbol in a timely manner. Also, most important, they absolutely MUST have a solid group of investors to fund the process for equity and to sell their shares into the marketplace post public to create a market for your stock as well as a network of market makers familiar with your deal to piggyback off of the sponsoring market maker&#8217;s 211.</p>
<p>About one month away from symbol achievement you&#8217;ll want to meet with your consultants to get a solid IR strategy together for a big offering dbut. You will want to set up a strategy for 30 day IR intensives every other month with general corporate publicity strategies in between. I suggest changing your IR firm each quarter to keep it fresh and open up your trade to a new network of investors.</p>
<p>One special note to consider is that when you are raising your initial round of capital from seed investors, the fastest way to do this is to have a fist full of contracts and purchase orders in hand to strengthen your position and publicize this reality with an arsenal of press releases. Its 100 times easier to raise capital if you are showing seed investors a handful of &#8216;soon to be&#8217; cash than to solicit them empty handed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Going public, the ultimate in the evolution of companies who are seeking access to powerful global finance options for rapid expansion, deepening corporate roots and gaining industry prominence as a true powerhouse and player. The process of going public is technical yet pretty straight forward: business plan, Private Placement Memorandum, Direct Public Offering, Financial Audit, S-1 filing, SEC comments phase, SEC approval, FINRA approval, symbol and then you&#8217;re public.</p>
<p>Never price shop for consultants that take companies public and be weary of consultants that will start off a conversation by answering questions geared toward price and giving you quotes without understanding your business first; without the proper information a realistic quote can&#8217;t be given anyway.</p>
<p>When you&#8217;ve found a consultant that you&#8217;re comfortable with you&#8217;ll need to get a solid understanding of their full range of services. Of course you&#8217;ll want a consulting firm that will handle all of the above for your company but you&#8217;ll also need to consider the post IPO services. What happens after you&#8217;re public? The reality is, selling off stock in a rapid fashion to raise capital is the last thing you want to do, instead you need to approach your consultant and market maker on how to cross collateralize your securities to raise equity loan capital.<span id="more-490"></span></p>
<p>This can be done easily and quickly if you&#8217;ve brought on the right group of advisers to expand your company to the global public. When considering the idea of taking your company public it&#8217;s important to note that there are many ways to raise capital after you are public without selling off chunks of your company (consult your financial advisers for more information).</p>
<p>Next, when deciding on a consultant they should also have solid investor relationships to assist your company in raising the capital necessary to go public. A true turn-key consultant will have a database of investors seasoned in the process of pre-IPO finance and will often times jump at the chance of investing in the PPM and DPO phase at a discount for companies that are in the process of going public as this almost guarantees that the investor will double or triple their initial investment when the company achieves public status.</p>
<p>Out of the hundreds of consulting firms that offer the &#8216;take your company public&#8217; service, there are only a dozen or so that actually offer the complete full range of services needed to successfully accomplish public status in a way that maintains investor confidence and corporate longevity. Do your research and find a firm that is well seasoned in the turbulent waters of this industry.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the economy worsens and banks continue to crash and the US dollar is losing its place as the world currency American entrepreneurs need alternative funding solutions that cater to ongoing capital needs that take advantage of the international finance stage as opposed to domestic institutional lenders.</p>
<p>Many companies, for the first time, are considering going public as a viable option but where does one start on this trek? How much does it cost? What type of lawyer and consultants do I need? Who sells my stock? Etc.</p>
<p>The reality is, going public is fairly straight forward if you have a product or service that lends itself to an invest-able option to global financiers. The process of a start-up or small/medium size business going public usually begins with the basic business plan (50 to 100+ pages in length) and a Private Placement Memorandum (Regulation D Rule Exemptions 504, 505 or 506).<span id="more-483"></span></p>
<p>The company would then do an initial round of funding with accredited investors with a mini/maxi built into the offering circular that makes it possible to reach a simple benchmark that would allow the company to start using the investment cash for growth via public offering using OTCBB (over the counter bulletin boards); this is the quickest and cheapest way to go public being that 99.9% of companies don&#8217;t have the liquidity and time in business to qualify for an IPO. There are several things that a company can do to make your capital raise a pleasure and not a nightmare. Start with a solid market maker that will commit to putting forth a dominating effort to sell your shares. The next thing you need to do is put a face and a voice to the company. Hire a publicist and pick an executive, usually the CEO or CFO, set up, daily interviews on radio and TV to promote the company and as you do this you will begin to see instant results. Another thing is to send out articles and press releases focusing on every single positive point, contract and strategic partners, feed that publicity machine. Branding is another powerful aspect to raising capital. Make your brand and image something that people see on online and in magazines. A solid publicist will do wonders for you. Get your press releases going on the wire to broker dealers and market makers and other stock promoters.</p>
<p>Fund raising has been complicated by unethical companies that are looking to create capitalization angles for themselves whether they are the business raising capital or the broker dealer buying and selling their stock. Done honestly, there is no reason a company with a viable business concept can&#8217;t be successful in raising capital quickly and easily being sold on the public market.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Your company is growing. Now you are ready to start raising serious capital and you here the public fund raising markets. Here are the basics of your S-1 filing. Know the lingo before you hire a consultant. Because companies must adhere strictly to SEC regulations, initial prospectuses are similar in their organization. Each S-1 generally consists of the following sections:</p>
<p>Front Section &#8212; An S-1 contains a small amount of information not available in a prospectus. In this first section, you can quickly find the issuing company&#8217;s phone number and get a vague sense of the future offering price.</p>
<p>Cover/Inside Cover &#8212; The prospectus cover outlines the general terms of the offering, including names of the underwriters, number of shares offered, and pricing information. The actual share price is absent from a prospectus until the day of the offering.<span id="more-481"></span></p>
<p>Prospectus Summary &#8212; Here you will find a brief synopsis of the company&#8217;s business and history, a modest discussion of the change in capitalization to occur as a result of the offering, and a useful summary of financial information covering the last five years, if available. If you are screening prospectuses for investment ideas, start here.</p>
<p>Risk Factors &#8212; After you have read a few prospectuses, you will become familiar with the &#8220;usual suspects&#8221; in this section, including &#8220;Possible Volatility of Stock,&#8221; &#8220;Limited History of operations,&#8221; &#8220;Dilution,&#8221; and &#8220;Dependence on Key Personnel.&#8221; Nevertheless, this section is a worthwhile read to be sure that you understand the challenges facing the company&#8217;s management. The discussion of competition can be sobering, but it can also provide a means to compare the value of the issuer against the financial performance and market valuation of its competitors.</p>
<p>Taking your company public should be an exciting and revitalizing time. Don&#8217;t take unnecessary risks, hire a consulting firm who can streamline this process and deliver the results you&#8217;ll need for success!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Easily Find And Secure: Angel Investors, Private Investors, Institutional Investors And More! Raising capital for a start-up, corporation in expansion mode or a company in virtually any position presents it&#8217;s challenges and roadblocks. There has been no period in recent history that can simulate the difficulties that current entrepreneurs and executives are having when trying to achieve the procurement of venture capital. The standards have become more stringent and the cross-collateralization of personal and corporate assets as security for loans has virtually become a mandatory prerequisite for any type of funding, equity or loan based.</p>
<p>When initiating the process of raising capital one should take into consideration the use of a combination of funding options such as but not limited to: traditional venture capital, bank institutional, institutional equity investment, hedge fund lenders, private money lending, angel equity and loan investment, a private placement memorandum as the mechanism for raising capital distributed in shares, international equity based funding, the reality of taking your small business public on the OTCBB and many other concepts of capital raising that can be placed into a simultaneous strategy.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a common mistake among entrepreneurs and executives to place all of their attention and time into one singular aspect of the above funding concepts. Instead, you should pick a multi pronged approach and go after multiple genres of financing for your business. Some avenues will yield success, some will not but you are more likely to achieve incremental funding successes as oppose to one gargantuan, be all and end all finance victory.<span id="more-466"></span></p>
<p>To achieve funding you&#8217;ll need to be able to contact multiple finance sources to start the ball rolling. Find online membership database sites that are owned and operated by professionals in the venture capital industry.</p>
<p>There is a big difference between a generalized database of possible lenders and a strategic database of success driven finance solutions. Find the most cutting edge, full range database on the web and join them.</p>
<p>Do You Need Financing For Your Business? Do You Need <a href='http://www.angelfundingproject.com'>Angel Investors, Private Investors or Venture Capital</a>, then visit Angel Funding Project&#8217;s site and find the best <a href='http://angelfundingproject.com/angel_funding_project_investors_database.html'>Business Funding Sources</a> In The Industry.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regulation D, Under Sections 4(2) and 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, the SEC adopted Regulation D to coordinate the various limited offering exemptions and to streamline the existing requirements applicable to private offers and sales of securities. The Regulation establishes three exemptions from registration in Rules 504, 505, and 506.</p>
<p>Rule 504, which provides an exemption for non-reporting companies unless they are &#8220;blank check&#8221; issuers or certain &#8220;shells&#8221;, stipulates that: The sale of up to $1,000,000 of securities in a 12-month period is permitted provided that there is no general solicitation, the securities sold are restricted securities and cannot be resold except pursuant to a registration statement or exemption, and a notice must be filed with the SEC within 15 days after the first sale. Rule 504 does not provide an exemption under any state laws. In certain limited circumstances where an offering is conducted under state accredited investor exemptions, securities offered under Rule 504 may be freely transferrable. Unlike Rules 505 and 506, Rule 504 does not mandate that specified disclosure be provided to purchasers. Nonetheless, the business person should take care that sufficient information is provided to meet the full disclosure obligations which exist under the antifraud provisions of the securities laws.</p>
<p>Rule 505 was adopted by the SEC to provide small businesses more flexibility in raising capital than under Rule 504 &#8211; but without the uncertainty of determining the quality of the purchasers that generally is involved in using Rule 506. Rule 505 provides issuers a limited offering exemption for sales of securities totaling up to $5 million in any 12-month period.<span id="more-450"></span></p>
<p>Rule 505 contains certain restrictions regarding &#8220;accredited investors&#8221; and non-accredited persons. The-term &#8220;accredited investor&#8221; includes:</p>
<p>Banks, insurance companies, registered investment companies, business development companies, or small business investment companies; Certain employee benefit plans for which investment decisions are made by a bank, insurance company, or registered investment adviser; Any employee benefit plan (Within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act) with total assets in excess of $5 million; Charitable organizations, corporations or partnerships with assets in excess of $5 million; Directors, executive officers, and general partners of the issuer; Any entity in which all the equity owners are accredited investors; Natural persons with a net worth of at least $1 million; Any natural person with an income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse in excess of $300,000 for those years and a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year; and Trusts with assets of at least $5 million, not formed to acquire the securities offered, and whose purchases are directed by a sophisticated person.</p>
<p>If the issuer sells any securities to non-accredited investors, it must furnish to all investors the same type of information as required by Regulation A. It must also furnish audited financial statements.</p>
<p>If an issuer other than a limited partnership cannot obtain audited financial statements without unreasonable effort or expense, only the issuer&#8217;s balance sheet (to be dated within 120 days of the start of the offering) must be audited.</p>
<p>Limited partnerships unable to obtain required financial statements without unreasonable effort or expense may furnish financial statements prepared on the basis of federal income tax requirements and examined and reported on by an independent public or certified accountant in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards; and The issuer must also be available to answer questions by prospective purchasers about the issuer or the offering.</p>
<p>Further restrictions under Rule 505 include:</p>
<p>The total offering price of each issue of securities may not exceed $5 million. The offering may not be made by means of general solicitation or general advertising. The issuer may sell the securities to an unlimited number of &#8220;accredited investors&#8221; and to 35 non-accredited persons. There are no requirements of &#8220;sophistication&#8221; or &#8220;wealth&#8221; for persons to whom the securities are sold. A company must take any necessary steps to ensure that the purchasers are acquiring securities for investment only, not for resale. The securities are thus &#8220;restricted&#8221; and investors must be informed that they may not be able to sell except pursuant to a registration statement or exemption from registration. The issuer is not required to file any offering materials with the Commission. Fifteen days after the first sale in the offering, the issuer must file a notice of sales on Form D. The notice also contains an undertaking under this Rule for the issuer to furnish the Commission, upon its staff s request, any information given to non-accredited purchasers in connection with the offering. Rule 505 does not provide an exemption from state securities laws.</p>
<p>SEC Rule 506 offers and sales of securities by an issuer that satisfy the conditions stated below are deemed transactions not involving any public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. For an offering to be considered exempt from the registration requirements, Rule 506 stipulates: There is no ceiling on the amount of money which may be raised. No general solicitation or general advertising is permitted. The issuer may sell its securities to an unlimited number of accredited investors and 35 non accredited purchasers. Unlike Rule 505, all non-accredited purchasers (either alone or with a purchaser representative) must be sophisticated &#8211; that is, have sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to render them capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment. The term &#8220;accredited investor&#8221; is defined under Rule 505.</p>
<p>If the issuer sells any securities to non-accredited investors, it must furnish to all investors the same type of information as required by Regulation A. It must also furnish the same financial information as would be required by registration on Form S-1.</p>
<p>If the issuer cannot obtain audited financial statements without unreasonable effort or expense, then financial statements may be provided in accordance with the special treatment described under Rule 505.</p>
<p>The securities sold are &#8220;restricted&#8221; under the same stipulations in Rule 505.</p>
<p>A company is required to file a notice of the offering on Form D at SEC headquarters within 15 days after the first sale in the offering. All states except New York provide an exemption from state securities laws for offerings under Rule 506 but the company must file a copy of the Form D and pay a filing fee in each state. New York has a distinctive law which makes a Rule 506 offering within that state impractical.</p>
<p>Accredited Investor Exemption</p>
<p>The Small Business Investment Incentive Act of 1980 created a new statutory exemption from registration under the Securities Act for transactions involving offers and sales of securities by any issuer solely to one or more &#8220;accredited investors.&#8221; Under Section 4(6):</p>
<p>The total offering price of each issue of securities under the exemption may not exceed the limit on small offerings set by Section 3(b) the Securities Act, which currently is $5 million per issue. The offering may not be made by means of any form of advertising or public solicitation.</p>
<p>The term &#8220;accredited investor&#8221; is defined to include the same individuals and entities as included for purposes of Rules 505 and 506. The issuer is required to file a notice of sales on Form D with the Commission 15 days after the initial sale is made in reliance on the exemption.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Discovering the &#8216;thumbscrews&#8217; of investors is crucial to getting them to take action. In over a decade of dealing with global investors there are several elements that I&#8217;ve discovered to be universal truths about the mind of the private investor (angel investor, accredited investor).</p>
<p>When talking to an investor for the first time, it&#8217;s more important to listen than to speak. It&#8217;s more important to ask questions than answer them. It&#8217;s more important to discover their needs and wants than to exclaim your own. Your first conversation with an investor should be all about piercing the armor and finding the trigger points that prompt a reaction that gets to the center of their &#8216;childlike&#8217; state.</p>
<p>What I mean by this is, investors, just like anyone else, has insecurities that are rooted in their childhood and what they are outwardly today, is typically a polar opposite of what they are on the inside. For example, an arrogant, chest beater seems proud and obnoxious on the outside but the reality is that they are over compensating for an insecurity that is rooted in an individual or collection of childhood incidents.<span id="more-448"></span></p>
<p>Maybe they were made fun of as a child, maybe they&#8217;re father was verbally abusive, maybe their teachers would single them out in class opening them up to playground mockery. When talking to these individuals it&#8217;s important to listen to their voice and intonation when the conversation topic changes. Take notes on their psychological adjustments to the conversation. After you feel you have discovered the triggers that induce the &#8216;pleasurable&#8217; responses, end the call, and set your second phone appointment with them.</p>
<p>On that second call, you want to have your conversation ready to go using the triggers you found in the first conversation. Play off of those insecurities that you found, become their best friend without being chummy but it is your mission on this call to be the &#8220;guy that understand me&#8221; to the investor. You want the overall tone of this conversation to have the response from your target along the theme of, &#8220;wow, this guy gets me&#8221; , &#8220;I can see investing in this company&#8221;.</p>
<p>By using this method and not coming across as &#8216;fake&#8217;, you have become an investment opportunity and a shrink all rolled into one. You want to be the one person that this investor can lower his guard to because everything he says, you seem to be the one person who understands him at his deepest level. You seem to naturally be tuned into his insecurities, emotions, needs and wants. Sound strange? Try this out on the next investor you talk to, I guaranty you will be shocked with the results.</p>
