Readers —
We proudly take no VC checks, nor do we have any outside investors.
We are growing and still 100% independent — which is increasingly important, as the rest of media capitulates like a bunch of f’ing cowards.
But in the last few years, more than some loyal readers and listeners (and current Important Members) have asked how they can invest in our growing media-company-turned-unhinged/vigilante-tech-startup-thing.
I have great news today: they still can’t!
But they can — quite simply — pay us more. Announcing our brand-new Membership tier:
The Very Important Membership.
What’s the Very Important Membership?
For $1000 a year, exactly 100 Very Important Members can each provide us with revenue that is the equivalent of 50 annual regular Important Memberships — with just one click.
So it’s like investing in us, except you are still not technically doing that and still hold exactly zero ownership in our company. Huzzah!
Very Important Members do, of course, get access to all of our current Important Membership benefits (and everything to come)
And they also get:
Exclusive access to — and input on — our roadmap
Quarterly “behind the scenes” group calls with Quinn and other Very Important Members
Twice-yearly 1:1 calls with Quinn, for free (these are usually $500, so)
But more than anything, you pay it forward so we can expand our work, offer Membership scholarships to teachers and students, and get our undying thanks and respect.
In summary: Exactly 100 of you will do more than just about anyone involved to make sure this work continues, when we (all) need it the most.
Why now?
We’re coming up on some truly consequential times, and we need to fortify what we’ve built here — and fund all the cool shit to come.
Limited to just 100 Very Important Members a year, this new Membership tier will help us remain independent 4ever, build faster, and be significantly more resilient in the months and years ahead.
Obviously, the Very Important tier isn’t for everyone. We’re so thankful to our nearly 50,000 free readers and listeners, and hundreds of Important Members.
That said, if you can afford it — there’s no better way to drive Compound Action.
It’s time to build for a better future, and be ready to fight back.
Thank you as always for giving a shit.
— Quinn
