Key Takeaways:

"To scale, in my opinion, the holy grail is to have a list of your own investors you have cultivated." - Shawn Winslow

"I've been really successful in networking. But even with that, it still takes a long time to cultivate that because you're not just going to meet someone one time, and they're going to invest with you. You want to develop a relationship with these people so that they know, like, and trust you but also so that you know, like, and trust them as well." - Shawn Winslow

"The best relationships I've made are the ones that take a little longer to establish." - Shawn Winslow

"A lot of people say, it's whom you know, but I actually think it's who knows you. And the only way for people to know you is to get out there." - Shawn Winslow
