Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're raising funds from strangers on the net
Trust is everything you need to get
Like Wall Street brokers selling stocks each day
You need signals that will light the way
Choose a platform everyone can see
Like exchanges give legitimacy
Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Republic too
Recognition builds belief in you

[Chorus]
Trust signals, trust signals, seven keys to unlock
Platform, lawyer, numbers, escrow, skin in the game
Partners, breakdown, never be vague
Trust signals, trust signals, play it like the stock
Exchange pros who make millions every single day
Show them why they should believe and pay

[Verse 2]
Get a securities attorney on your team
Mention them by name, fulfill the dream
Just like brokers have their legal crew
Investors want to see you've got one too
CPA reviewed or audited books
Give your finances professional looks
Third-party numbers carry so much weight
Don't let amateur accounting seal your fate

[Chorus]
Trust signals, trust signals, seven keys to unlock
Platform, lawyer, numbers, escrow, skin in the game
Partners, breakdown, never be vague
Trust signals, trust signals, play it like the stock
Exchange pros who make millions every single day
Show them why they should believe and pay

[Bridge]
Put your money where your mouth is now
Skin in the game shows you believe somehow
Display those logos, partners all around
Customer names that make a trustworthy sound
And when you tell them what you'll do with cash
Be specific or your dreams will crash

[Verse 3]
Third-party escrow holds the money tight
Until milestones prove you're doing right
Management investment shows you care
Your own dollars prove that you'll be there
Advisory board with faces they can trust
Use of proceeds detailed is a must
Every dollar accounted, clear and true
Vagueness kills the trust they have in you

[Final Chorus]
Trust signals, trust signals, seven keys to unlock
Platform, lawyer, numbers, escrow, skin in the game
Partners, breakdown, never be vague
Trust signals, trust signals, borrowed from the stock
Market playbook that Wall Street uses every day
Build the trust and they will pay

[Outro]
Like the brokers on Wall Street know
Trust infrastructure makes the money flow
