Key Takeaways:
“This is something this whole overview and upfront agreement; hardly anybody does this. But it can make a huge, huge difference with your success rate with your prospective investors because it takes the pressure off.” – Dave Dubeau
“Even if it’s a ‘No’, that doesn’t mean it’s a ‘No’ forever. It just means it’s ‘No’ right now.” – Dave Dubeau
“It’s always better to have both decision-makers there live because the second person might have some questions that the first person didn’t have, and didn’t get covered.” – Dave Dubeau
“An expression of interest. And that’s all it is. It’s you showing me that you guys are seriously interested in doing a deal when I have one available. And this is what we do; you get first dibs on the deals that I have available. The way that I know you’re serious about that is with this simple little document.” – Dave Dubeau
“For somebody to be a serious investor with me, they have to sign at least an expression of interest showing me that they are interested. Because otherwise, a verbal agreement is just worth the paper, it’s written on nothing.” – Dave Dubeau
“Let’s say you’re meeting with a CPA, and they ask you some accountant questions. I would say, you know what, that’s a really good question. I don’t know the answer to that. But if that’s important to you, I will find out what the answer is. And I’ll get back to you within the week. Don’t bullshit. Just be upfront.” – Dave Dubeau
