you've got to go know people at hedge funds, right? That's the only answer for the business, which is why you go back to rule one and say, well, no, just go find people you know somewhere and sell things to them. But I mean, early on at Ampush, we did that. And it's just like, you leverage your network extremely heavily. I bet you with a week or two, you could get 10 hedge fund meetings, right?

Through friend of a friend, essentially, or some version of your network if you really cared. Obviously you go in, you've got to bring it in those conversations, you've got to be really well prepared, you've got to explain why it matters to them, you've got to match their energy and their orientation, you've got to know their culture of the buyer, and I think you'll have some good success with it.

Again, my recommendation is more so find the people you already know and find something to sell to them versus try to go and learn some new thing.

You know, funny enough, like I do both of those things also. I think you know that I do cold stuff and I also learned how to build an audience. Um, And I do think they have tremendous, I think the media stuff is way more valuable than I ever expected it to be. The first thing I would do is I have this crazy system on LinkedIn where I just find mutual introductions and it works like a charm.

Like you get your 50 targets. Usually you'll have a second degree, maybe a third degree, but even third degree works better than you would think. Like, especially if it's like you, right? So I call you and I'm like, Hey Greg, you know someone, you know, Andrew and Andrew knows the head of Oxfam. Like you're my friend. Like it takes time.

It's a little more of a patient game, but within a week or so you actually have a pretty good introduction. And that's actually for all of my businesses. How I started is using, even when I was 25, by the way, or 26, because everyone's, I was like, you have a huge network, Jesse, which is true. But when I was 25 or 26, I was like, I did the exact same thing to get the first 10 Ampush customers.

They were through my network somehow. And I would just, I would sort of salute the people I wanted to talk to and I'd work backwards somehow to figure out how I could get an end to them. Sometimes, by the way, it's not even on LinkedIn.
