I’m excited to announce a new coaching program that will start this March.

It’s harder than ever for startups to get funding, due to current economic instability.

I’ve spent months talking with VCs, investors, and successful founders on my LinkedIn Live show, The Nailed Pitch.

One thing that they all said founders need to work on is creating a powerful brand story…

…because startups need traction. 

Introducing: Fast Brand Traction Made Easy!

Fast Brand Traction Made Easy is for startup founders who are trying to get Seed funding, and have been told by investors that they need more traction.

It’s a hybrid program including group and 1:1 coaching, and enrollment is by application only.

There will only be a few spots available in this exclusive first cohort.

And, I might not run it again.

So, If you – or somebody you know – is interested, click this link to join the waitlist.

You’ll get a chance to provide input on what specifically the program should focus on.

(I have the general curriculum planned out, but want to get input from you to make sure it’s as valuable an experience as possible.)

I promise I won’t spam your email either. I hate that as much as you do.

Those who join the waitlist before Jan. 14th will also be eligible for a free upgrade to VIP status, which comes with a ton of extra bonuses.

So, please click the link and share it with founders who are trying to get Seed funding, and have been told that they need more traction.

Here’s to an incredible 2023!
