爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
There was a periodical called The Plymouth Pulpit, which presented verbatim reports of the sermons of Mr. Beecher, and Edward got the idea of absorbing the Pulpit in the Magazine. But that required more capital than he and his partner could command. They consulted Mr. Beecher, who, attracted by the enterprise of the two boys, sent them with letters of introduction to a few of his most influential parishioners, with the result that the pair soon had a sufficient financial backing by some of the leading men of Brooklyn, like A. A. Low, H. B. Claflin, Rufus T. Bush, Henry W. Slocum, Seth Low, Rossiter W. Raymond, Horatio C. King, and others.

白话
爱德华想把报道比彻先生布道词的刊物《普利茅斯讲坛》并入自己的杂志,但需要更多资金。他和合伙人向比彻先生求助,比彻欣赏两个年轻人的进取心,给他们写了介绍信,引荐给几位有影响力的教区居民。结果他们很快从布鲁克林一些头面人物那里获得了足够的资金支持。核心是:创业遇到资金瓶颈时,可以借助有威望的人的背书来撬动资源。做法是主动向关键人物展示你的计划和热情,争取他们的信任和引荐,而不是只靠自己去硬闯。
