EXPECTATIONS
THE GIVE
The hustle is not for the faint of heart.
We expect a high level of commitment and trust from every member of the BoomStartup community.
We’re in this together for the long haul. Join BoomStartup if you’re committed to ongoing, evolving guidance that matches your company’s growth stage.
We need to know how your business is evolving so we can support you. Founders are expected to participate in quarterly business surveys that help us help you.
We want to know if our programs, services, experts and education are working for you, or not. We’ll ask for your feedback after big engagements and look forward to your response.
There is no try, only do or do not. We are a task-driven, action-oriented community. We will nag you (in the nicest way). We’re here to support and advise at every step, but we expect you to do the work and to move your business forward.
