From Beer Talk to Deal Structuring in Idaho | Think Like a Developer Minisode#02
You don’t need a pitch deck—you just need to talk about what you’re doing.
In this minisode, we’re back in Idaho with Craig Parsons as he unpacks how funding actually happens when you’re starting small. One moment he’s chatting about his project at a local bar—next thing you know, someone overhears and offers to connect him with an investor.
From seller financing to sweat equity and everything in between, Craig is learning what it really takes to structure a deal—and why the “how” matters way less than the who.
If you’ve ever asked, “Where would I even get the money for something like this?”—this minisode is your answer.
📍 What You’ll Learn:
How Craig found a funding lead over a casual bar convo
Equity partners vs. private money: what’s the difference?
Why your role in the deal determines your slice of the pie
Navigating infrastructure costs, tribal coordination, and modular bids
Why relationships and real due diligence matter more than spreadsheets
💥 Bold Truth: Deals don’t get done because of perfect pitch decks—they happen when locals lead with trust, clarity, and a real plan.
