Trove????

Levelling the wealth playing field

Bravo, Trove. Diving head first into an early acquisition to accelerate their plans takes some serious guts. But, Josh , Ross & Johnny are in for the haul with a very solid plan in hand. The Trove team published their memo which outlines and it's ready for input on platform. Josh also put up a pretty darn great pitch this week too!?

Founders, I got you ???

Founder life, right... One day it's all gravy the next a complete torture pit. I'm fortunate to have some incredible supporters, friends, advisors around me which I am super grateful for. It took time (years) to build but I want to open it up to you. Not only through the platform though a private community just for founders.?

That's why this week I started a founder only WhatsApp group.?

I'll share insights from my most recent conversations with leading funders/investors and experts/advisors. Plus, let you have direct input on the early versions of the platform as it quickly takes shape.?

Join the founder WhatsApp group and start learning and sharing today !

?? Join the Community on the Platform

Join as a Supporter : Share your expertise, your connections, or your capital and help shape incredible startups. ??

• Founders use our platform to post frequent structured updates linked to their key milestones as a way to stay accountable, build trust and also ask for support in more acute and fractional ways.
• It’s light touch, and you won’t be spammed. You can follow companies you like the look of to receive their updates, and offer feedback + methods of support.
• As we grow we’ll have hundreds of founders. We already have thousands of global experts engaging to help guide them with their asks, gaps, and blind spots.
• Join thousands of angels and experts following the journeys of the next crop of high potential startups.

Join as a Founder : Are investors saying things like "too early", or "show us line of sight to product/market"? Struggling with how to describe your vision, product, or strategy? Our community harnesses the power of thousands of experienced operators, founders, and investors who help transform strategy and messaging into an investor's dream. ?

• It often takes months to close an investment or engage seriously with an advisor after sending a deck. From that point of cold outreach the other party needs to build their knowledge and conviction. By speaking with you and leveraging others in their network, investors slowly build trust in your capability to execute.
• After months they agree or not to support you. Why wait? Why not start building, engaging, and impressing those potential investors and advisors from day one?
• Join our fortnightly pitch event for feedback and start building momentum today.

Alright, people. As always the biggest of thanks and we'll catch you next week, ??

Jock
