/ About this event
Thursday, October 8, 2026 • 2:00–3:00 PM Pacific • Live on Zoom
Your first $1M in revenue rarely comes from one magic channel. It comes from finding the right market, sharpening the offer, and building a repeatable way to reach customers.
Bring your product, website, and hardest growth question to this free, interactive, 60-minute Zoom office hours for founders with something live and a real distribution challenge.
We’ll work through selected companies in real time to diagnose: • Your ideal customer and beachhead market • Positioning, messaging, and offer clarity • Early customer acquisition and distribution • Website and funnel conversion • The highest-leverage experiment to run next
Submit your URL when you RSVP and tell us where growth is stuck. A few companies will receive live teardowns; everyone will leave with practical patterns and three clear priorities for moving toward repeatable growth.
This isn’t a lecture or a generic list of growth hacks. We’ll focus on real companies, real constraints, and the decisions that matter now.
Juliet may appear briefly as a supporting growth snapshot or demo; the focus stays on the participating founders.
