Entrepreneurs are dreamers, but they may not always effectively showcase their visions. What matters is that they try.
\nWith well proven methods.
\nWhen you need capital, show investors where they’ll profit, not just what you need. Pitch them the bigger picture for a mutual win.
\nTake Howard Schultz, the brain behind Starbucks. Before it became everyone’s favorite coffee stop, Starbucks sold only beans. After a trip to Italy, Schultz envisioned transforming Starbucks into community spaces inspired by Italian espresso bars.
\nThe original Starbucks owners weren’t on board. So, Schultz started his own coffeehouse, Il Giornale. When Starbucks went up for sale, he saw an opportunity to merge his vision with the Starbucks brand, but he needed cash.
