Watch Grant Cardone videos for 10 days straight, then on a Tuesday or Wednesday, kill it will sales calls. If you don't believe in your product or service enough to do that, why would an investor believe in your business. If you are a techie and hate calling customers, you need a killer sales co-founder. Be willing to give them at least  the same equity you will have in the business, or they don't need you.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Tom Psillas</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Mar 2018 12:46:43 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Crunch Time: Good or Bad?</title><link>https://www.instigatorblog.com/crunch-time-good-or-bad/2014/01/17/#comment-3634568742</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I should diminishes efficiency.

Mainly the part "Help as many entrepreneurs as I can"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don't consider myself to be an entrepreneur until I have actually accomplished something big.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I just found out about your Highline BETA company a few days ago after finding out about the RESOLVETO on the radio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am hoping to meet you next week to talk about my startup (great idea - can't say the best since I don't know what others will pitch but pretty good concept). I read about a few other judges who will be present at RESOLVETO. But since your company helps startups take off, i am interested in meeting up with you the most!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Abdullah Malik</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 19 Jan 2017 15:37:19 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Hello, 2017</title><link>https://www.instigatorblog.com/hello-2017/2017/01/05/#comment-3089104848</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Non-fiction (good non-fiction anyway) is much easier to read.
