Vetted Founders

“Paid media performance marketer who managed a $50K+/month multi-location senior living portfolio across Google and Meta, focused on qualified lead volume, CPL efficiency, and occupancy growth. Uses structured testing, tracking/analytics (GA4 + call tracking), and cross-platform budget reallocation to stabilize CPL at scale and recover performance when lead volume drops.”

“Sole founder of Bazaaro who built the company’s operations across product, hiring, GTM, finance, and investor relations—securing initial investment by effectively spanning multiple functions. Also drove a high-stakes operational turnaround at Ciena by process-mapping end-to-end workflows, correcting cost mis-modeling, and building Excel dashboards to recover $60K+ while improving margin visibility.”

“Paid media specialist who managed high-spend multi-location gym franchise campaigns (Meta-heavy with Google Display support), cutting cost per lead from ~$25 to ~$5. Combines technical measurement (GTM/GA4 server-side + Meta CAPI) with customer-insight-driven copywriting and disciplined A/B testing, plus CRM/automation integrations (GoHighLevel, Zapier, Google Sheets) to reduce data loss and improve targeting.”

“Frontend engineer who built uichallenges.design end-to-end in Next.js, delivering hourly AI-generated challenges across timezones and a CDN-backed gallery of 1k+ items while staying fast for 100s of weekly active users. Also led a full replacement of Zenhub’s kanban board, forking DnD tooling and adding custom virtualization + Redux to support thousands of items with real-time socket updates, shipped safely via gradual rollout with Sentry/Mixpanel and A/B testing.”

“Former account manager/collector at Allied Account Services who ran 150–200 outbound calls/day (95% contact rate) and negotiated payment plans through an empathy-led, consultative approach. Also a solo e-commerce founder who launched a Shopify store and drove measurable growth (+55% traffic, +20% conversion, 120% monthly revenue growth in 3 months) and has been simulating SDR workflows in HubSpot with multi-channel outreach and automation/AI.”

“Private Equity Secondaries Analyst (Series 7) who founded and launched the Canadian Student-Athlete Association during the pandemic while in university, playing varsity football, and running a window glass business. Drove executive alignment by directly engaging CEO/President-level decision makers with tailored, concise written cases and relationship-building across universities, sports governing bodies, and government stakeholders.”
