Local Chapter Q&A

Why is the Founders Grant awarded to Seattle businesses at $0?

We believe that independent business owners, specialty trades, and community founders in Seattle are the economic backbone of the region. Rather than spending tens of thousands of dollars on agency retainers or bloated software subscriptions, selected recipients receive a turnkey, custom-coded web platform, automated missed-call SMS text-back, and Google Maps ranking architecture with zero invoicing. In return, founders simply provide an honest 2-minute video review upon launch.
