David Drake's investment firms have invested all around the globe and he himself will be a great asset if the deal gets through. He has spoken on many Blockchain Summits and may provide a great support to ICO's.
True that he provides resources for the ICOs that he advises. But he has much more to offer than what he gives to the number of ICOs under his advise. The role of an adviser is limited and doesn't make or break a project. So an adviser's connections don't always reflect directly onto the ICO. As you all know by now, we like to aim high. David Drake would make for a much more valuable partner than an adviser. To us anyways. We have already learned so much through his advisory. His upper management has approved of us as a strong startup company and a team focused on success and they advise him to partner with us and take on a more involved role. I can't wait for our meeting tomorrow morning. It's exciting and I know the best to come lies just ahead for all of us.
So what is the result of that meeting?
Did he become a partner or will he continue as an advisor?
Oh yeah, the super important meeting that could've been the most important meeting in all of crypto..... How could I have forgotten... lol.
I was just making sure you guys were paying attention. Well, long story short, it went better than I could've ever hoped for. Actually, let's go with a short story long..... The meeting started out with about twenty minutes of banter and chitchat about all kinds of topics. Then once we started in on the Q&A, Drake shooting the Qs while we were giving the As. Being the first time I spoke to David with our actual voices on a phone call rather than a chat platform, I didn't know what to expect. People are very different when your entire relationship has been over the internet with emails and chat apps. I'm no different. When I have a thesaurus and backspace ability, I can seem like I have mastered communication and might be super intelligent..... In person and on the phone, I am stripped of my superpowers and if caught off guard, become a stuttering, bumbling fool. Ok, digression over, back to the meeting..... Nothing is set in stone but we talked for about 45 minutes about several levels of cooperation before we both had to attend to our busy schedules. We picked up the conversation again the very next morning and we spoke for another 45 minutes. We ended the second call with an exchange of documents regarding the ways we decided we could be most beneficial to each other. We decided that becoming partners is a slam dunk opportunity for us both. We have another meeting scheduled for May 27th at 4:30 pm NY time and we will undoubtedly finalize the terms of our collaboration/partnership. When this happens, he will be bringing with him a strategic partnership with us that is too good to be true. I will not name it until it is either set in stone or a confirmed failure. Either way, I will be sharing the results. If I don't say anything by Monday the 28th of May then put me on blast again. lol
Thanks for reading this. If you have in fact read this, I appreciate and respect your attention span.
