If you want to know how to get investors on board with your deals, this is the time to listen… Ilya Gamer is a powerhouse in the online investment realm as Managing Director at CrowdStreet… And today, I unlock the secrets Ilya has uncovered that allow sponsors to get deals done on CrowdStreet’s online marketplace, which has raised over $4.3 Billion in equity across 770 diverse deals. Here’s the thing: if you want investors to jump on board, you have to inspire confidence.  Enthusiasm is key—share your excitement and make that deal irresistible.  It's all about relationship building and letting investors get to know the real you.  Before the raise, you have to set the stage…  It’s best to under-promise and over-deliver. Underwrite, educate, and share why this deal matters to you… Pinpoint what makes your deal unique and use that to your advantage as a marketing initiative. During the raise, remember that it’s a marathon, not a sprint… There is way less competition in the marketplace today, so take the opportunity to make your deal stand out. And no matter what tough situations arise, always continue communicating with investors… Good reporting is a balancing act between the narrative and the numbers of the deal. Keep your investors engaged and show them you are the sponsor to trust with their capital. Tune in today to discover how to navigate the market as a sponsor and scale your business from an online marketplace!
