What’s the One Question You’ve Always Wanted to Ask About Investor Updates or Board Meetings? We get it—fundraising pitches, investor updates, stakeholder updates and board meetings can feel daunting. No one hands you a playbook on what works, what doesn’t, or how to keep people actually engaged. Yet these are your most consequential meetings. It's crazy. That’s why we’re hosting Slightly Less Miserable, an open conversation with Zeck co-founders Robert & Jeffrey Wolfe (so cute). They’ve built companies, raised money, sat on boards, and seen it all. We’ll be tackling the questions founders, operators, and EAs really want answers to, like: How do you keep your board from zoning out? What’s the right balance between too much and too little detail? What’s the biggest mistake founders make in investor updates? What's the best DQ Blizzard flavor? It all happens tomorrow, Tuesday, March 11the at 12 PM EST Register here: https://lnkd.in/gqvkPaMd If you’ve ever left a board meeting or investor update thinking, there has to be a better way, this session is for you.
关于我们
Zeck is a cloud-based software platform that is transforming the board meeting. Zeck creates both time efficiency and qualitative improvement of board dynamics. Basically, after living through miserable and outdated board meetings, as both operators and board directors, we decided to completely reimagine the entire board meeting process. Zeck is co-founded by Edward Norton, an award-winning actor, filmmaker, and entrepreneur, and by Robert and Jeffrey Wolfe, the founders of Moosejaw (acquired by Walmart) and CrowdRise (acquired by GoFundMe). James Zubok, an incredibly experienced software company operator and private equity investor, is a founding partner. You likely know Edward Norton from his day job. But, Edward has also founded several companies and serves on many corporate and nonprofit boards. “Those of us who’ve started companies or sat on boards felt like the dynamic of the board meeting was broken. Board meetings had become a ‘punch yourself in the face’ moment for so many companies and organizations” - Edward Norton, Zeck Chief Strategy Officer The world is shifting and there is no chance we're doing board meetings the same way two years from now. Zeck is a game-changing transformative solution, and thousands of CEOs, board members and nonprofits agree. Zeck is already the fastest growing board software (we’re mostly sure that’s true). Notable investors include Salesforce Ventures, Khosla Ventures, Breyer Capital, Brian Sheth (co-founded Vista Equity), and David Blaine (which is mostly cool because he’s so good at magic). In addition to board meetings, companies and nonprofits are using Zeck for investor updates, all hands meetings, quarterly business reviews, etc.

We were pretty excited that Zeck was the topic of a recent Business Insider article. Not only does the article encapsulate exactly why we set out to build Zeck, but it also highlights how the angst is real and has been real for so long. We're super proud to be the solution and are ready to make everything way less miserable. Check out the article...

The Center for Health Affairs is an innovator in board governance. The days of 80 slide PowerPoint decks are over. We are on a shared mission with the Zeck team to create better meetings. We’re among the first in healthcare to roll this out. In Q1, we implemented it across our boards, saving hours of prep, reducing pre-reading, and sharpening discussions — ultimately creating better, more strategic meetings.

Love this Jack FitzGerald - we love seeing board members excited about Zeck as well as companies ditching the deck. Way to modernize your board meeting!

Have you signed up for our Slightly Less Miserable session yet? Just yesterday we got asked by a customer 'How do you keep your board engaged?' This is exactly the type of question we're ready to answer on Slightly Less Miserable. This session is all about the things no one tells you... What should go in a fundraising pitch? How much detail on financials is too much? What makes an investor update stand out? What do stakeholders and boards really want to see? How do I keep my board engaged? Who is taller, Robert or Jeffrey? Join Zeck co-founder, and dear, sweet brothers, Jeffrey Wolfe and Robert W. as they answer all your questions from their experience as founders, investors, and board members. It all happens next Tuesday, March 11th at 12pm EST. Register here: https://lnkd.in/gqvkPaMd If anything, it's the perfect way to kick off the Big 10 Tournament week.

?? EAs, Take Control of Board Meetings—Make Them More Efficient & Way Less Painful We all know the pain—hours spent building a board deck no one wants to read, only to go through it all again in the meeting. The process is outdated, the tech is stale, and nothing ever feels productive. If you’re fed up, you’re not alone. Our friends at eaRISE + eaMAFIA are hosting a conversation about why board meetings are so broken—and how to fix them. Join eaRISE Founder & CEO Kelly Kovacs as she sits down with Zeck co-founder Robert W. and award-winning actor, filmmaker, and entrepreneur Edward Norton to talk about a better way. ?? If you’re an EA looking to improve the process at your company - this session is for you. ?? March 14th | 3 PM EST ?? Register here: https://lu.ma/wsv52m9y Big thanks to eaRISE + eaMAFIA for leading this important conversation—we’re excited to be part of it! #BoardMeetings #ExecutiveSupport #EAs #Leadership #Zeck #eaRISE #Productivity

“Zeck is not just a presentation, it's a conversation” That’s our most current slogan. We’ll probably change it in a few days. But, it’s true. Zeck isn’t about just presenting materials. Anytime you want your live or zoom meeting to flip from a presentation or lecture to real banter, Zeck is game changing. Let's talk: https://lnkd.in/guVcsppr
