KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. Communication is key to build and maintain trust during a crisis, even if you only have bad news
2. Building strong business relationships will pay off for years to come.
3. Educating yourself is crucial. Anybody can get started as an investor if they are willing to self-educate and reach out to professionals to ask questions.
4. Slow periods are part of investing. It comes in waves.
5. Take the time during a slow year to focus on building up what you have, strengthening your investments rather than expanding.
