How the Founding 10 Program Works

It is a founding partner program limited to ten teams, taken on one at a time, with the trade stated in full. Mindlyft is a young company with a short list of public engagements, and the honest way a young company earns proof is to do the work and ask permission to publish what it did. So that is the offer: Mindlyft builds your first systems, and you let us publish the result if there is one worth publishing. The first partner to take this trade was Bijliride, an EV mobility company, where 60,171 unique leads were reconciled into one record per person, 1,518 paying riders were found still on the cold-call lists, and manual record-update work dropped 70 to 80 percent. That is the result of one engagement, not a promise for the next one.

Six things. A free 30-minute GTM Engineering Review before anything is agreed. Your first post-call systems built inside your own CRM, tickets, inbox and Slack. Ownership: everything Mindlyft builds lives in your accounts and stays yours. The trust layer: a human approval on every customer-facing write, and a receipt on each write that can be reversed. A direct line to the founder with weekly working sessions and no account manager in between. And founding pricing held for as long as the membership runs.

Four things, and none of them is a long contract. Use it against real calls, not a sandbox, because a system that has never met a real customer conversation proves nothing. Give thirty minutes of feedback a week. If it works, let Mindlyft publish the numbers and a short quote under your name. And if it does not work, tell us plainly, in which case nothing is published. There is no minimum term attached to any of this.

Neither, and the page says so deliberately: it is a trade, not a discount. The review is free. After it, membership is the standard flat fee everyone pays per 4-week cycle: $3,000 for Acquire, $6,000 for Expand, or $7,000 for both, with no minimum term. No free build is promised. What founding partners get on price is certainty: the rate they start on is held for as long as they stay. For a pre-revenue startup the standard early-stage terms still apply, where billing starts only after first revenue and is agreed in writing on a call.

B2B revenue teams on Salesforce, HubSpot or another major CRM, roughly five reps and up, where the follow-through after customer calls is done by hand. Customer success, sales engineering and RevOps leaders are the usual signatories. The work writes into Salesforce, HubSpot, Jira, Gmail and Slack and reads from the call records and documents your team already keeps. The practical qualifier is simpler than the profile: you can name one thing your team promises on calls and then does by hand, and you are willing to run the fix on real calls.

You tell us, and we publish nothing. The publishing permission only applies to a result both sides would stand behind. The standard membership protections apply on top: if the research week of the first cycle does not convince you, tell us before the first build week and 75% of the first cycle comes back, and you can pause or cancel after any cycle because there is no minimum term. Whatever was already built stays inside your own accounts and keeps running without us.

The numbers and a short quote under your name, in the style of the existing case studies. Those studies show the standard we hold: each figure names where it came from, counts are taken on the customer's own data, and results are framed as one engagement with the caveat that numbers depend on the stack and the starting point. Things that were not measured are not quoted, and the case studies say what is still unfinished.

Bring the call that keeps leaking. Tell us one thing your team promises on calls and then does by hand, and we will say in the review whether we can engineer it; if we cannot, we will say that too. The first step is the free 30-minute GTM Engineering Review, a working session and not a sales call, with no build included and no obligation.
