It's finally here!!!!!
We are launching the Human Cloud Community October 1, and want YOU to be a founding member!
An invite only, 50 leader community of global talent platforms that are between $1-100m in revenue, and clear leaders in their niche.
Selfishly, for growth. If you don’t grow by at least 30% next year, don’t renew.
- Depending on your tier, expect:
- Early access to HC Forbes, Presentation, and Report Content
- Async Slack Community
- Monthly cohort meetings (10 curated leaders)
- Bimonthly expert sessions
- Quarterly meetings to review Human Cloud data, industry updates, and items you’d like to add
*Any member can run your own workshops and propose new community ideas
- Human Cloud Podcast episode with 1 month of marketing ($8k market rate)
- Major Media Article ($12k market rate)
- Quarterly meeting with just amplified leaders
- New member criteria vote
- Quarterly 1:1 strategy meeting with HC leadership
- Monthly office hours with HC leadership for open discussion and Q&A
We take quantifying the outcomes very seriously, especially with the current business climate we’re all facing.
Annual goals for this cohort:
- Grow each platform by 30%+ revenue or profit.
- Create talent platform partnerships that scale customer accounts to $50m+ a year.
- Build language and standards that establish freelance as a mature industry that companies need to invest in and plan for each quarter (there should be a chief freelance officer, a freelance talent strategy).
- Enable a tight feedback loop with platform peers so we can all adjust and navigate to the global economy.
Members are founders or executives of talent platforms between $1-100m in revenue. Based on prior cohorts, members are fully global, with presence in the US, UK, Germany, France, Poland, Cyprus, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Singapore, and Latin America.
High level shared demographics:
- Each platform is the leader in their niche – skillset, region, industry
- Each platform is complementary to others in the group
- Each founder or executive is an expert in their industry prior to starting their platform
Each member can bring 1 leader with them to events.
For more, reach out to our community lead Angie.
Meetings will be virtual, between 9-11 am est. We’re evaluating regional chapters, let us know if you’d like to lead one!
There are two tiers. Scroll down to see the full breakdown.
Connected: $5,000/yr
Amplified: $20,000/yr (limited to 10)
*Scholarship is available on a per case basis
