Most fund managers panic when investors push back.
They freeze. They fumble. And they walk away from capital they almost had.

- Why objections can actually be your best friend - and bring you closer to a yes - IF you shift your mindset
- The most common investor pushbacks you need to be ready for (and how to flip them)
- The underrated sales skill that turns “not sure” into “tell me more”
- And what Eminem can teach you about owning the elephant in the room (so it doesn’t own you)
