Anthony Castrio
@fajarsiddiq Oo thanks for the compliment and for the heads up Fajar! Did you get to the 404 page due to an error? or intentionally?
Anthony Castrio
@fajarsiddiq Deployed a fix for the 404 page, now it's cute again.
Fajar Siddiq
@anthonycastrio Now it looks cute! ;) yeay. Well done for the quick turn around time fixing the site.

@anthonycastrio Also if you can make the social icons colors to #291f4f on the footer will be good visibly. 💜 Sending love

Hi Product Hunt 😄 For the past few weeks I've been running what I call an artisanal matching club. Once a week I send carefully selected introductions between members of the matching club based on revenue, shared interests, skillsets, and the type of businesses that they're building. The club is now over 150 people and I've made hundreds of introductions so far. Come join in on the fun, I've got some cool folks I'd love you to meet!

Thanks for the kind words and the shares!
Tasos Valtinos
Launching soon!
@anthonycastrio Hey man! Very cool concept. We are doing something similar and we have over 1,150 founders in already. I saw the way you match people, and I believe there is room for integration between our services. Let's chat. You can check us out here: https://mapped.rocks. I have an idea to bring more traction to both of us, and with revenues ;)

@tasos_valtinos Hey, just followed you on Twitter, send me a DM?

I've met quite a few super interesting founders due to founder's club. Anthony always made sure to take out the complexity with scheduling meetings, and to guarantee founder's interests match together. Thank you for providing this great service. Love it!
Anthony Castrio
Thanks @mgreiler!
Erik Garcia
In the isolated world we currently live in, Founders’ Club has been an invaluable way to meet other founders and builders who are all working on exciting companies and products. The individuals I have met so far have all been equally talented as they are passionate, and Founders’ Club made it happen.
Anthony Castrio
@erikwgarcia Thank you Erik, I'm so glad you're part of this group.
Louis Vieira
I'm not a community person, but I have tried Founders' club - it has tangible value, so I recommend it. @anthonycastrio has made a terrific job curating the people inside so you'll always get matched with someone doing projects.
Anthony Castrio
@iamvieira Everyone listen to Louis :D, thank you
Robin Mehta

Jesse Jensen
•What if you are so new with no revenue? •How often do you meet, what day, and is it mandatory?
Anthony Castrio
@jessehojjensen If you're new, you'll mostly meet other new Founders, as you make more revenue you'll meet other Founders who've made more revenue as well. Intro's are sent out weekly on Tuesday's, you schedule the matches with your match. Once you've scheduled with someone it's mandatory that you show up (ghosts are removed from the club). You can skip a week whenever you want.
John McGowan
I've really enjoyed meeting and engaging in thoughtful, genuine conversation with a new, interesting founder each week. @anthonycastrio 's matching system works very well, and I've kept in touch with several founders after our initial meet. Highly recommend!
Anthony Castrio
@johnnywandering Thanks John this is such a nice review

@anthonycastrio very cool. Is there a video chat option?
