Creating our own off market deals
“No one else was in the room where it happened.” - Hamilton
It’s James.
There's a scene in the musical Hamilton where Hamilton, Jefferson, and Madison decide where the nation’s capital and central bank would be located…
…Over dinner…
…In a private room…
…Making a decision that impacts millions over 250+ years later.
No committee meetings.
No vote.
Just three people.
The definition of an off-market deal.
“No one else was in the room where it happened.
The room where it happened.”
The people NOT in the room?
Had no say in the decision or way of getting a piece of the deal that was made.
To some? This is unfair.
To deal makers?
We can use it to our advantage.
Because
We can put deals together in the same way.
We just have to be in the room with the right people.
Pre-’vid?
The ‘room’ was normally the hotel bar at conferences.
Now…
Most deals and partnerships are made without ever meeting in person.
Just connecting in groups and communities.
(Hint: The peeps we want to do deals with normally aren’t hanging out in free groups unless they own them.)
For those who want to be in not just more rooms, instead…
Rooms with business owners and service providers who have (or have access to) distribution…
I’m putting together a deal to get us access.
Could you do me a favor?
Could you let me know if that’d be useful to you?
Or if I should drop the deal?
