Hey, everyone. My name is Frankie. I'm working on a company called Scatter Mine. I'm, like a first time founder. I started a business called Breadcrumbs, and it pivoted into this business called Scatter Mine that helps founders with a d ultimately overcome procrastination. I joined Founders Cafe in 2022. In April, I joined because I kind of really didn't know how to answer my questions. I was really lost as a first time founder. I really didn't know how to answer questions or what I should do next, or how to really go through the process of starting a business, as well as finding users, like, doing sales, building product. And the other thing is, I was a solo founder, so I really didn't have anyone available to really talk to or work with, and that was very somewhat lonely. And I really didn't have anyone to really interact with while I was building this business. I was just by myself. And ultimately, when I joined Founders Cafe, the big change that I really had was one, I had people to answer my questions like, small, large, anything. There was always someone available to really spend time with me, to really make sure that I figured out what I need to do. Whether it was Maddie or one of the other community members, someone was always available to kind of help me get through to figure out what I need to do next. Next thing is I met a bunch of founder friends through Founders Cafe. All my friends at this point, I have a couple of friends from my own personal network, but I have, like, five to ten founder friends at this moment, and pretty much all of them have come from Founders Cafe. Founders Cafe really helps me along the lines of, one, having a community to have friends with. Two, answer my questions, but three, also to gauge where I was like. I think one big problem that I had is I really didn't know where I stood and where other people were. Like, I didn't have anyone to compare myself to. And I think Founders Cafe really allowed me to see what it means to be a first time founder, a second time founder, or a successful founder, a founder that's about to fail or whatever. And it really helped me see how can I achieve my goal as best as I possibly can. So. Thanks, Maddie. Maddie's great.
