When I say that fund managers need to be good marketers, a common response I get is,

"Why would I need to worry about that? I'm managing a fund..."

A few days ago I googled

"How to start an investment fund..."

And the top result said:

1. Write up a business plan

2. Find some money

3. Hire a bunch of lawyers...

and you're good to go!

I know, pretty weak...

I could tell that the writer didn't really know how to start a fund...

Then on the other side people make starting a fund seem like the hardest battle in the world!

So what I want to do is put these dabblers to rest, and show you the REAL framework to starting your first fund.

I started and launched 14 different businesses while I was in college...

I got into school and I was like, "this is my time!"

My theory was I’m going to get up to the plate and keep swinging...

As long as I’m at the plate swinging, I'll eventually hit a double, triple, or even a home-run, right?

As an Entrepreneur, you're investing in your self… entrepreneurs even see failure as progress. 

Whether your next fund or even business for that matter does really well or fails, I see it as progress because I learn WAY faster starting businesses than any other way!

I’ve worked at a PE fund, a large tech company in Silicon Valley… and I learned WAY more starting and running my own businesses than working a 9-5.

For me, I’m trying to get from point A to point B as fast as possible and to do that I’ve got to learn and grow as much as I can! 

That is why I Intentionally chose entrepreneurship when I got to college!

So I was on business try #8… and we were building different websites and online advertisements for companies. 

I was pretty good at doing this, and I had found a few people that partnered with me that were geniuses. I was good at selling and pitching companies, so we launched this business! 

It was going okay… we had landed a few businesses and we would take an upfront fee of $5,000, and then we would take a revenue share of all the money we brought in through our ads and websites.

Once you start having success:

... Which can make you mentally default back down to their level so you’ll have friends again. I actually heard Tony Robbins speak last week and he talks about the thermometer - we all have a temperature that we’re comfortable with that our friends and family like us at… 

Once we start growing, it starts to get too hot. Then, something inside of us makes the AC kick on… and we sabotage our own success until we’re back to that same level with our family and friends. 

This happens with athletes, they have a high thermometer of their fitness level… or whatever that is, if they start getting a little overweight, or maybe have a pregnancy, what happens right after the have the baby, then they hit the gym like a madwomen to get back to their weight that they are comfortable with. 

That’s why the quote works if you took all the money from the wealthiest people in the world and gave it to the poor people… in a matter of time, the wealthy people would all have it back.

He was like WHATTT “LUCKY?” Are you kidding? I’ve been working my butt off for the past 15 years. Remember all those nights that you’d come home from work and hangout and watch Netflix, and all those Saturdays you took your kids to the beach, well I didn’t. I was tricking grinding and perfecting my trade.

Don’t let this glass ceiling effect hit you. Where you can see above you, but you keep hitting something above your head and can’t progress.

A topic that people have been frequently asking me about recently is how does Crowdfunding work with the SEC!

So in today's episode we'll be diving into Regulation A+ filings... A.K.A. Crowdfunding Filings.

The reality of life is this:

Some people are meant for some things, while others just aren't... even if they really want to be.

One of those fields is Entrepreneurship. 

Lots of people want to make it in Entrepreneurship, whether it's through a Fund, Real Estate, a tech start-up, etc...

So how can one tell if they have that "entrepreneur bug"?

One of my mentors I have had a privilege of meeting is a man named Alex Charfen, who goes deep into what he calls the Entrepreneur Personality Type.

Basically, there are 3 passes or qualifiers, and almost all successful entrepreneurs can relate to them.

Tune in to find out what they are!

I often get asked, "Bridger, what do I invest in with my fund?"

Now... I don't really dive much into what to invest in, I talk more about HOW to structure a fund and raise money..

However, this episode is designed to give you ideas of where to find arbitrage in the markets! 

Many great businesses and funds are built off of Arbitrage

(Buying things in one market and selling them in another market for a gain)
