Who can believe how fast this year is going…?

Time continues to march on, my friends.

There have been some pretty exciting moments for the community over the last quarter.

We’ve had seen some new faces (

@Tyler Carr

@Alistair Gordon

) and seen the return of some old ones (

@Michael Heckmeier

@Armando Montealegre

@Demetrios Venetis

and others).

We’ve done AI workshops, countless coffee hours, and stayed super consistent with our weekly planning sessions.

We’ve seen the deployment of an end-to-end strategy execution system (Taskmaster) and a content marketing system (Media Machine) that collapsed the labor required for those functional areas down to a 1/10th of what it used to take. Unreal but true.

We’re definitely still a ways out from our stated goal at Venture Map, to deliver the world’s premier self-optimizing enterprise platform — but we’ve made solid progress and our roadmap has me feeling seriously optimistic.

Now here’s the thing.

For the very few of you who have been here for a while, you know that this Skool community constitutes a type of sandbox for me. A forum for experimentation and **hopefully** market-driven product development.

That being said, I believe the purposes of this community would be best served by going through another stage of evolution.

You may have seen my “$1000 gift” post a little while back…

It was an experiment to gauge our current level of engagement / resonance with the group.

To say the response to that post was underwhelming would be an understatement. But more than that, it’s a signal for change.

One, among many others, that’s shown me the importance of iterating my approach to growing this group in a direction that genuinely resonates with a specific audience and is of great service to them.

Right now, I can’t say that I’ve been successful at that.

So I’m going to pivot into Q3 in a manner that I believe will allow me to be of greater service to you all, as well as future members.

We’re going to change the cadence of our live sessions for Q3 by consolidating them down into 1 monthly workshop.
I’m going to reallocate the time I was spending live with the group on a weekly basis into building out assets to help you scale with AI (prompt templates, trainings, etc).
Put more energy into the product development side of Venture Map. THIS is the big one….although I recognize that live time and recorded trainings have some value, the truth is, getting work DONE FOR YOU is the leverage that businesses need to grow. AI gives us that opportunity to help solopreneurs and SMB’s get more done for less. So helping our members more effectively integrate AI’s capabilities into their workflows will be our primary focus moving forward.

Immediate take away for this is:

Let me know what topics you’d like to cover in our next workshop!
Monday and Friday sessions will be discontinued for the time being. If there’s significant demand for weekly sessions, we’ll consider potentially opening it back up on paid tiers.
If you’d like to sync 1-1 to discuss how this community can better serve your growth as a founder, drop me a DM!

Thanks for all of your support, especially to the group’s true founding member

@Lin Kayton

- we wouldn’t have made it this far without you.

Stay sharp out there!
