The easiest thing to sell is truth.

I think African Americans are resilient and hustlers by nature. I think they need to understand that you can take that hustle to the boardroom, but it has to be an education process.
I'm a big advocate of financial intelligence.
As an entrepreneur, you never stop learning.
An entrepreneur needs to know what they need, period. Then they need to find an investor who can build off whatever their weaknesses are - whether that's through money, strategic partnerships or knowledge.
I value an entrepreneur I can get behind and trust, because I know they are attempting to move forward in life.
Good grooming is integral and impeccable style is a must. If you don't look the part, no one will want to give you time or money.
A savvy entrepreneur will not always look for investment money, first.
