GUIDE’s Formula for Founder Success: Advisory, Education, and Community

No entrepreneur left behind? That seems to be the driving force behind GUIDE, an early-stage venture studio and advisory firm founded by Neil Cheong and Alvin Chin.

In this episode of Open for Business, we explore how GUIDE aims to provide venture education, hands-on support, and mentorship to founders and entrepreneurs, all while building a scalable business for themselves.

We delve into their transition from Ignition Chamber to GUIDE, their unique approach to advisory services, and their ambition to grow a content-driven business that supports a thriving entrepreneurial community.

Key Areas of Conversation:

- Founder Support: GUIDE’s focus on early-stage businesses, offering education, mentorship, and ecosystem-building support.

- Evolution from Ignition Chamber: The formation of GUIDE and why they’re focusing on content to scale their business.

- Business Model & Scalability: How GUIDE balances advisory services with a scalable educational membership model.

- 1% Equity Model: GUIDE’s innovative equity-based fee structure to support founders.

- Future Vision: GUIDE’s plans to scale founder programs and foster a vibrant entrepreneurial community.
