This episode with Ryan Gibson of The Spartan Investment Group is one of the best episodes we’ve had so far on the podcast! If you are looking for tactical tips on how to meet and raise capital from private investors, this episode is quite literally a playbook for your success. Ryan discusses EXACTLY how to identify investors, as well as what you need to say to them in order to convert them into investors who are eager to work with you. We also touch on self-storage in this episode and the similarities it has to the multifamily industry. With that being said, this episode is less about self-storage and more about actionable pieces of advice on raising capital.
