    Hmm.. I'll remember these words. Thank you for the fuel. This, I have. Thank you for the book reference. It may prove to be valuable. Getting the meeting. That's my issue. If doors have to be slammed in my face, then so be it. But I'm confident in what I have.

    The money is definitely all accounted for with market research. And if the investor thinks I could get it all done with less, I'd be happy to. You mean experience building a website or experience gaining traction? I'd definitely surround myself with the right people. (Advisors, legal counsel...
