Are you looking for an investor referral?
September 25, 2008
Most people who know me, know that I have an open door policy when it comes to sharing my time. I will talk to most anyone about most anything (at least for a little while). More and more people seem to think I have an ‘inside track’ when it comes to investors in Dallas. This isn’t really the case. In an effort to be helpful I will make referrals when I am asked, but I have had to rethink this policy for a number of reasons.
Going forward I will make investor referrals in the following cases: a) if I am willing/planning to invest my own money in the deal I will make a direct referral or b) I am generally interested in the deal, but I lack subject matter expertise to determine whether or not I would be willing to invest my own money I will make a direct referral with that caveat.
I am happy to suggest people YOU should talk to, but please don’t use my name to suggest somehow I endorse you or your company. Trust me, it ALWAYS gets back.
