The day trader pointed to a picture of a small jet on his office wall and said, “I want you to help me buy this.” He then wrote us a check for $150,000 on the spot, and we were officially funded.
Inspiring and really like this. Sometimes, you just need that one person to believe in you if you don't have the means...
More than believing in you, it speaks to the importance of empathy.
That day-trader didn't want to revolutionize call-centers, he wanted a fucking jet. As the business owner, recognize where his goals (getting rich) and yours (getting funding to grow the business) converge.
