Hey there!

We are thrilled to have you join us. This inaugural edition of The Founders' Signal serves as our permanent welcome for all past and current members of The Founders’ Group. Our mission is to engage all members, active or inactive, with a warm, authentic look at our community and goals. We know you are broadly here for two things: knowledge, and progress toward investment dollars / scaling your businesses. We want to help you get them both! 

Going forward, you can expect to hear from us bi-weekly—specifically on the 1st and 15th of each month. Our aim is to provide high-value content that helps you stay connected without overwhelming your inbox.

While you wait for the next letter, check out our new and improved website, and make sure to stay updated on your Deck Roast for community pitch in Discord!
