Welcome. This is the private home for Foundry affiliates: the people who introduce business owners to R&D tax credit studies. YOUR FIRST WEEK 1. Take the R&D Credit Crash Course in Classroom. About 45 minutes, and you come out ready to spot a fit and make an introduction. 2. Introduce yourself in General discussion: your role and the clients you serve. 3. Bring one prospect to Deal Desk Live, Thursdays at 3pm ET. You get a fit or no fit answer on the spot. HOW THIS COMMUNITY IS ORGANIZED • Start Here: onboarding and reference posts from the Foundry team • Announcements: program updates • Deal Desk: pressure-test a prospect before you introduce them • Wins: introductions that became engagements • General discussion: everything else HOUSE RULES Keep client names private. No dollar figures before a study. No pitching other members. One introduction, one week. That is the bar. See you in Deal Desk.
