Get networking on Lunchclub, highly recommended
I'm only an excited users (wish I had shares) but Lunchclub.com is proving to be really useful.
You get the odd duff call, but when someone offers to refer you to one of their connections that is perfect for your startup, it makes the 30 minute calls worth every penny - well it would if it wasn't free! 😍

Very true! Used it earlier last year, and it was actually helpful for some initial word-of-mouth/ user acquisition :)
yeah I love Lunchclub as well, I've began using it again this month and it's a good tool to talk about ideas/ meet new people
I'm still early with it and not had any chats that would be direct clients for me.
But two gave me some really great contacts and intro's - which I'd say is as good as it can get really.
I've changed my target for next week's calls to be investors, so that is going to be an interesting test too.
Hi Steve,
Thanks for update. If I recall, a few weeks back you were asking If anyone had any feedback re the platform. I guess now you've got (fantastic) first hand experience :)
Hi @Janinah yes I was planning to use it a couple of times but kept holding back - it felt like you can potentially waste a lot of time on calls with people that add zero value.
But having taken the plunge I can say, yes a few calls aren't quite what you need, but generally the value is definitely there.
I am taking 6 calls next week ;-)
You should try it!
Oooof 6 calls would be a bit much for my introverted self 😄 Having said that I was at a business/tech networking event yesterday evening, so maybe I'm just feeling a bit networked out right now. I'll definitely try it out though once I've launched
