In This Episode You Will Learn:

Why talking about your technical skills in your Business Case works against you, and what to replace that content with
What Jay’s conversation with equity partners revealed about the difference between planning to build referral networks and already having ones that work
How to do a writing problem vs practice problem audit on your own Business Case, and why that distinction changes everything about what you do next
