Monroe Mann
“The only reason some people think finding investors is difficult is because they don't know where to look. Think about this: people with money--millionaires even--are around you every day, whether you recognize them or not. Everybody--even your friend who works at McDonald's--has some sort of paycheck. It may be two hundred dollars or it may be two hundred thousand dollars, but almost everyone has a source of income. The question is: what do they DO with that income?”
Monroe Mann, T.R.U.S.T.: How Psychology and a Simple 5-Letter Acronym Will Help You Raise the Money You Need, Recruit the Team You Want, & Engender the Support You Crave

“In order to build community we must clearly honor community and each other in meaningful ways and sharing our collective genius is the gold standard with this empowering program.”
Iris K Barratt
