From there we discuss the usefulness of starting with people who are already familiar and trust you and building slowly outwards from that before Brian breaks down the three curves that he uses in the process with investors. Brian makes the point that this three-step process of trust has to be achieved in a particular order and steps cannot be skipped over! We then get into the actual particulars of making deals, communicating with clients and information delivery.
