Enjoying my quest against startup bullshit? Support me!

Why I'm offering paid subscriptions and what this means for you

A quest against startup bullshit

I started this newsletter to combat superficial startup bullshit that you can find online. Too many articles don’t provide clear actions; there’s too much snake oil.

With over 100.000 reads, I’ve come to see you all appreciate my content. For you, I perhaps have succeeded in combatting bullshit and joined me on my quest against it! You are not alone, there are over 5000 people following me in my quest against bullshit.

I’m very grateful for your attention so far!

As most of you know, I’m doing this as next to my PhD research on early-stage startups. I initially started with a few hours per week to bring insights from my research and practice to you all.

Which I’m delighted to do. However, this has turned into a sizeable chunk of time. Therefore, I’m asking you, if you value my content and want to support me in my quest against bullshit, consider becoming a paid supporter.

Will you offer a free subscription option?

Yes. Consider this a Patreon to help me to make content. If you like it, I appreciate the contribution! If you can’t, I’m still happy you read along and combat bullshit with me.

• Free subscribers will see extra ‘upgrade now’ buttons in the articles.

• Paid subscribers won’t see that button. That’s the only difference for now.

• Currently, I don’t have plans to create paywalled content.

Support me starting from €2.5 per month

There are three ways to support me financially.

For the US residents: €uro is the currency used in Europe. The current value is roughly a dollar.

Get personalised mentoring with the Dabbing Unicorn Club

The Dabbing Unicorn Club is for superfans who can spare a little extra. Starting from €8.3 per month, you can support me with any amount per year. In return, you get something very personalised.

Dabbing Unicorn Club members get 60 free mentoring minutes per year. You can divide it into three 20-minute calls, or two half hours. It’s up to you to decide. If you enroll to this club, you will get instructions on how to schedule a call.

Sounds good, how do I support you?

Click ‘other payment options → use different card’ to see these options.

Screenshot: If you don’t want to use credit card, you should click ‘use different card’ under ‘other payment options’.
