Our "light touch advisory" approach is designed differently from most ad hoc advisor programs. It's structured and asks for less from busy executives:
Onboarding consists of a live intro meeting that helps you understand the contours of the program and the company, followed by a short video feedback session that helps you and the company assess your mutual fit.
With that foundation, it's mostly light touch monthly insights that take 15 minutes a month. These sessions are online and asynchronous, meaning you can complete them whenever you have time. The topics is these sessions will vary - asking for feedback on new product features being considered, or a key program the company is considering rolling out, or a key question the executive team is wrestling with.
Once a twice a year, the company you're advising might ask for more, like an 1:1 meeting with the founder, a live product feedback session or participation in a focus group, but those heavier efforts are up to you.
In return, you’ll learn about and help shape new products, new companies, new markets. You’ll meet VC investors, VC-backed founders and other advisors. If you’re engaged and you’re helpful, you’ll earn opportunities to earn equity and opportunities to co-invest a few angel dollars in vetted companies and alongside vetted VCs. Most of all, you’ll help build products you actually want to use and help build more successful startups. In short:
