JRJohn RameyMulti-exit founder, angel, top mentor. • Boulder, COOne of the highest rated startup mentors in the world (and on Clarity). I've founded, built, and sold multiple prominent companies that have either created or fundamentally changed multi-billion-dollar markets (eg. a New York Times cover profile called my last startup "the voice of a movement.") Advisor to White House, Congress, and many other governments and ecosystem building initiatives (eg. I co-founded the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Unit). Directly raised >$125M in VC, and was a key part of >$1.5B in fundraising. Youngest founder in the world to raise VC during the global financial crisis. Founded an international nonprofit of the highest-quality startup mentors, and have helped over 20,000 founders/innovators in >50 countries. Successful angel investor with top 10% returns. 100's of big media hits. Pulitzer nominee. As a mentor, I'm known for being empathetic but brutally honest. I quickly understand and zero in on what's important. A "force multiplier" who respects your time/money; mentees say they save 10s, 100s, or 1000s of hours by spending small amounts of time with me. I don't just regurgitate the five slides/tweets you've already seen about generic startup advice. I can help you with almost any topic an entrepreneur faces in their journey. Main topics tend to be fundraising and pitch mechanics, dealing with co-founders/boards/corporate issues, figuring out MVP and PMF, hiring/scaling/managing a team, exits/acquisitions, and dealing with the private/personal issues that every founder faces but struggles to talk about. If you're not sure if I can help, send me a message and I'll give you honest feedback on whether it's worth your time to book me.Founder • Entrepreneurship • Marketplaces • Online Marketing • Product Strategy • Advertising • Coaching • Strategic Consulting • Creative Problem Solving • Big Picture Thinking •$5.83/min per minute4.9 136 68

ARAnthony RobertsonI'll help you get to $10 Million in Revenue • Toronto, CanadaFounded and recently exited IGS - a marketing and business development agency specifically designed for fast growing start-ups. I view building a business like building a house - first you build the foundation and structural pieces. In fact, I believe if you have the 5 key foundational pieces optimized for growth, almost all businesses should grow to the $10 Million mark naturally. This is easier said than done. 5 structural elements to building a business: 1. Optimizing the offer 2. Optimizing the founders time 3. Optimizing the sales process 4. Optimizing the funnel 5. Optimizing internal communication and hierarchy The order in which I help businesses with these steps depends on what stage your business is in.Founder • Entrepreneurship • Sales • Business Strategy • Time Management • Sales Process • Growth Strategies •$3.33/min per minute5.0 3 2
