First, an update on The Ask. Edition one went out Sunday. 43.6% opened it, nearly double our previous issue, with zero spam complaints. The most-clicked link in the entire email was not ours it was Makayla Williams raising for Axion. That is exactly how this is meant to work. Read edition one · Post your ask for edition two
Most events fail for one reason. The right people are not in the room.
We have run 242 events in New York and more than 8,200 people have registered for them. Founders, investors, operators. Every one of those numbers is on our public calendar and you can check it yourself, event by event.
Below is our real calendar information with the $16k we’ve made since starting paid events last December
What a partnership includes
Event strategy and positioning. We start with what you actually want out of the room, whether that is a raise, a hire, a first customer or brand authority, and work backwards to the guest list.
Venue partnerships. Access to the rooms we already use, at the rates we already have.
Guest list curation. The part that matters. We build it against your goal, not against a headcount.
Invitations to the Propel audience. Our newsletter went out yesterday to 12,689 people and was opened by 43.6% of them, with zero spam complaints. That is the channel your invitation goes through.
Cross-promotion and partner integration. Your brand sits alongside ours across the calendar and the newsletter.
On-site moderation or programming, if you want us in the room rather than just behind it.
Pricing
From $2,500 for up to 100 attendees. Seven to ten days from kickoff to live. Custom pricing for larger rooms, multi-city activations, or a series.

New here? This is Propel Earth.
A network of tens of thousands of founders, investors and operators, most of them in New York. We run rooms every week, we place engineers, and we match people to what they need by hand. Aurora Winters told us what she needed when she registered for Demo Day, we matched her before the doors opened, and she closed $100,000 a month later. That is the whole thesis: most of what makes a company work is who you happen to be standing next to, so we stop leaving it to chance.
The Propeller Network is open and FREE. It is where the loop closes between editions. Post what you need in Asks, post what landed in Closed, say you are coming in Rooms, find work in Hiring, and introduce yourself so we know who you are. Free, and I read everything in there.
Post an ask · Jobs board · Showcase · Upcoming rooms · Private Network, fifteen minutes with me
Best,
Stephen
