Why You Should Build Better Deals with the Right People

Great Deals Start With Great People

If you’re wondering, “How do I attract investors to my business?”, the answer starts with the people you surround yourself with.

I didn’t learn this in a textbook or at a seminar—it came from experience. Moments where things went incredibly well because of the people I had around me. And, if I’m being honest, from a few hard-earned lessons where I realized the impact of not having the right team in place.

Here’s the good news: every deal, every challenge, and every win has taught me something powerful about the role of great people in making great things happen.

Great People Build Trust

When it comes to raising capital, trust is everything. But here’s what I’ve learned: trust isn’t just about the numbers—it’s about you and your team.

Think about it from an investor’s perspective. They aren’t just asking about your deal. They’re asking:

• Do I trust you to deliver on this?
• Do you have the right people around you to make it happen?

The best deals I’ve ever done weren’t just built on great opportunities. They were built on:

• Relationships
• Transparency
• Collaboration

Without trust, it doesn’t matter how good the numbers look. Investors want to know they’re backing a team that can deliver.

Great People Drive Execution

A great idea is just the beginning. It’s execution that turns an idea into reality. And execution happens when you have people who:

• Step up when challenges arise.
• Push for solutions when others might pause.
• Hold themselves—and you—accountable to the vision.

The moments when deals truly took off for me weren’t just about strategy or luck—they were about teamwork.

Great People Expand Opportunities

The most exciting opportunities in my career didn’t come from chasing deals—they came from the relationships I’d built.

Here’s what happens when you surround yourself with great people:

• They bring fresh ideas you hadn’t considered.
• They open doors to new networks and connections.
• They align their energy and vision with yours, creating momentum.

One of my guiding principles is to “Be a valuable magnet.” When you focus on adding value to others, you naturally attract people who align with your goals and values.

This approach has helped me answer questions like, “How do I attract investors to my business?” Time and again, the answer is simple: relationships built on trust and shared vision.

A Positive Path Forward

If there’s one thing I know, it’s this: you don’t have to learn this lesson the hard way.

When you focus on building trust, fostering relationships, and investing in great people, success becomes a team sport.

Here are three things to reflect on:

• Who’s in your corner?
• Do you have the team that can help you go further than you could on your own?
• Are you attracting the kind of people who align with your vision?

It’s never too late to build the right relationships and set yourself up for success.
