About this listen

In this episode, Nate and Jillian show us what it really takes to sell investment opportunities the right way. Spoiler: it’s not about being pushy—it’s about building real relationships.

Nate shares why raising capital is different from selling anything else and why trust, connection, and good old-fashioned conversation matter more than slick pitches. From avoiding the hard close to leveraging credibility and using tech wisely, this episode is full of real-world tips on how to connect with investors and grow your network the human way.

Tune in to find out why your sales calls aren’t closing and what to do instead.

Quick Takeaways:

  • People invest in people—become a friend before you pitch

  • Asking for $100K is emotional, not just logical

  • Forget one-call closes—it takes time and follow-up

  • Share stories, ask questions, listen more than you talk

  • Borrow authority if you're new—credibility matters
