Interacted with a Customer Service…
Interacted with a Customer Service Representative regarding an issue and within 3 days he resolved the issue by following through. He uses his Customer Service skills to get the issue resolved. He is a problem solver, paying attention to the complaints patiently. He has the ability to get the job done. Thank you!
Incredible experience
Incredible experience. Everyone is so helpful and makes the experience more engaging. Ed Kang is so insightful and we are so happy to have found this community.
I had mentorship
I had mentorship, coaching and all the support I could need to be a lot better, smarter and more active in the startup world. I made a 6 months worth of progress in just 3 weeks. So worth the time, energy and money spent.
If you launching a startup, you are at pre-seed, seed and others, and you don't know that much about pitching, funding, finding investors, this is your place.
Incredible people, kind, patient and helpful. Thank you!!!!
Recovering Film Composer turned Entrepeneur
I'm the CEO and Co-Founder of FolksPat Media Group, Inc. My background is in music for films and video games. I don't have a business degree, I've never been good at slide presentations, and I've never understood spreadsheets.
After listening to Startup Therapy, recommended by another founder friend of mine, my co-founder and I decided to research startups.com.
Until joining startups.com, we were having the hardest time putting our product not only into words, but into a cohesive deck that clearly explains what we are building. We've read books, reached out to founders, talked to advisors, and more. But it wasn't until we began our journey here that everything "clicked" together for us. I couldn't imagine beginning a fundraising journey without this community now.
So grateful to Wil, Ryan, Ed, Elliot, and the entire team at startups.com! I can't recommend this highly enough, especially for those of us without MBA's or corporate management experience.
Kudos to John Dominic
John did an excellent job in explaining the process and handling the issue quickly and efficiently. In addition, his follow-up was awesome!!!
We are beyond glad that we found this platform
StartupOS has been great! We are not your typical founders and have very little experience in this world. We have found Startup OS to be an incredibly helpful resource in our journey. Their tools and webinars have been instrumental in helping us understand various aspects of the process. We are particularly grateful to our mentors John, Jere, and Elaine for their assistance. The company has also been very welcoming, frequently checking in with us to ensure we feel supported. As real estate agents, we had an idea that we thought would be cool, and with Startup OS, we are actually making it happen!

This experience has been wonderful in shaping our startup and enabling us to see possibilities we ourselves didn't believe."
Excellent startup help from Startups.com
Class schedules were always up-to-date, and alerts for upcoming classes were highlighted. Instructors were well-versed in their subjects and very receptive to comments and questions. Listings of addition sources of information was excellent! Listings of funding sources was good and rapidly evolving to "better." Pricing is very reasonable.
Is Startups.com WORTH IT? 100% YES
Startups.com is amazing! Let me start off by saying that I don't often leave reviews for services, but I have truly enjoyed and benefitted from being a member of this community!
Everyone from Wil (the CEO) to Ed Kang(one of the mentors) to all of the staff/mentors are so kind, thoughtful, and focused on how they can best help and guide YOU. My favorite part is access to the FoundersGroups where you can network with other founders in similar stages of your entrepreneurial journey and share/learn from one another too.
As a young entrepreneur who's very early on in my startup journey, I'm so grateful to have found an AWESOME community with Startups.com and especially the FoundersGroup within it.
It's like having an experienced copilot along for the ride to help me navigate potential pitfalls and find the best routes to be successful as an entrepreneur.
If you were like me (a scrappy cash strapped entrepreneur with big dreams) and wondering if Startups.com is worth it, I personally 100% think it's worth every penny and then some x10! I truly believe that it won't take long before I am able to gain serious traction with my startup with the resources and support here.
Don't go at it alone. Join the community now, especially if you want to take your start up seriously and take it to the next level.
Glad I am part of this program
I have been able to meet great founders, great mentors, and have learned a lot about how I want to do business. It is like anything else, you get what you put into it, so you have to want to meet and discuss things. It's very organized and great for both learning and just overall planning.
Awesome service!
Joyce Gacutan from the customer success team provided excellent customer service to me and resolved my account related issue quickly. I really appreciate her help.
The platform has cracked the code on…
The platform has cracked the code on what it takes to launch a product and raise money from the VC community. Their suite of tools helped revamp my slide deck, my investor approach, as well as provide key insights into the do's and dont's of a world completely foreign to me.
I've gotten a TON of value from my membership
I've gotten a lot of value, especially from my advisor Ed Kang. Ed and other founders have introduced me to people who have been very helpful to have in my network.
There's a lot of information available through the online portal and Slack group. It is just a little confusing between the legacy website and new website while they are making a transition. Other than that, I'm really enjoying the membership.
Amazing customer service with easy to use platform - Highly recommend!
John really helped me through the setup process, with very friendly service. :) He gave me suggestions and continued to assist me as I worked through the presentation and rewards. The platform is very user friendly and easy to use. I highly recommend Fundable, thank you John! :)
BizPlan.com is helping me create a Non-Profit Business Plan
I have used BizPlan.com to create a business plan for a non-profit I want to start. It is easy to use and walks you through the process of creating a professional business plan.
I like the way that it puts the plan together.
It keeps people like me on task as I work through the process. I like the specialized focus - for a non-profit for instance. I have no experience in creating a non-profit business plan and your system appears to give me the framework I need.
Joyce the jolly Associate
What made my experience great was that Joyce was soo helpful towards assisting me with my profile. She was well informed about the platform and provide me with information I needed as a new user. In short words the company is doing a great job by enrolling such customer service associate who really see it through that the user get all the resources and information they need.
"I came in not knowing anything about the platform and Joyce was such too kind. She guided me through the process of making a profile. She wss very helpful and too sweet. I give her a 💯 she is good "
SO Far.. Its an impressive resource .
SO Far Its an impressive resource .. there is so much available that its a bit overwhelming.. but nonetheless really helpful
Startups.com is an excellent platform…
Startups.com is an excellent platform for new and experienced founders to learn about and hone their startup journey. I learned much from the videos and the 1-1's with instructors like Will. I highly recommend Startups.com to anyone interested in getting an advantage in their startup.
Joyce was fantastic! She did a great job and helped me greatly in making sure I got everything done. Feeling like I was in hurry. She helped me slow down and be me and make it right. And from my heart
Joyce was great. She helped me get things launched and made sure I had everything complete. She did a great job helping me.she was very thorough articulate and help me make sure I was ready to campaign. I truly appreciate her very much. I am slow in answering this post because I went in for major surgery unexpectedly for crohnes. But I wanted to make sure it was known she did a fantastic job for me. And the help she gave me. And I feel bad I didn't see this message sooner.
From the moment I engaged with Ms
From the moment I engaged with Ms. Joyce, her professionalism and dedication were evident. Her warm and welcoming demeanor immediately put me at ease, and she demonstrated an exceptional level of attentiveness throughout our communication. Ms. Joyce's remarkable knowledge about the products/services offered by your company enabled her to address all my inquiries promptly and accurately, exceeding my expectations.
