Purpose Built

📣 Founders & friends of founders! Our Head of Innovation + Cofounder Taylor is doing FREE deck reviews with Solved to help founders be more successful. Submit a deck for valuable and concrete feedback before you go out and raise.

As an investor or founder, I often get asked “how do you know if a company will be successful?” While I can’t predict the future, at Purpose Built, we focus on customer demand. Right away, we look at whether there’s a problem big enough and painful enough where people are willing to pay to alleviate their issue. We talk to potential customers as much as possible  to validate or invalidate an idea. But getting in front of customers is hard. That’s why we built a highly effective outbound machine to reach varied segments. We reach thousands of customers each year on behalf of our founders. I’m excited to share that we’re opening up our playbook for cold outbound through Solved. Solved makes high-value business expertise available to anyone. If you’re interested, the link is in the comments!

Last year I spoke with hundreds of incredible people who were at all different points of their journey as entrepreneurs. And while there are so many different ways into founding a company, I'm really excited about what we at Purpose Built do to support founders at the very earliest stages of building a company. We're unique in that we work with founders pre- incorporation, oftentimes even pre-idea. If you're curious about what we do and are wondering if we're the right fit, take a look at this resource →  https://lnkd.in/gdY4zypC We're always open to great founders to build with so if it's you or someone you know, please reach out!
