A private circle for Charleston's founders & owners.
Real relationships, honest counsel, and momentum — for the people building businesses in the Lowcountry.
What membership actually looks like
Not a group chat you mute. A rhythm you can count on.
Every two weeks
Founder calls
A private Zoom with other owners — honest problem-solving, not networking theater. Bring the thing you're stuck on.
Every month
In person, around Charleston
Coffees, meetups, and gatherings across the Lowcountry. The relationships that actually change your business get made in the room.
Whenever it counts
Warm intros that pay off
Make an introduction for another member. When it turns into real business, they report the amount — and you get the credit. Given, tracked, and never forgotten.
Every cycle
Founder Spotlight
One member featured, told properly — a story you'll actually want to share on LinkedIn. Your turn comes around.
Every day
The feed & the directory
Ask the Circle when you need an answer at 11pm. Find the member who's already solved it — searchable by what they can help with.
Questions, answered
Who is this for?
Founders, owners, and operators running real businesses in and around Charleston — from first-revenue to scaling to serial. If you're building something and want honest peers instead of a networking crowd, you'll fit.
Do I have to be a "founder"?
No. Own a business, run one, or lead one like it's yours — that's the bar. Coffee shop, agency, SaaS, restaurant group, trades — the common thread is ownership and ambition, not a title.
What does membership include?
Bi-weekly founder Zoom calls, monthly in-person gatherings around Charleston, a Founder Spotlight each cycle, and always-on access to the private feed, member directory, warm intros (give business, get credit when it closes), events, resources, and member perks.
Is there a refund policy?
You can cancel anytime and you won't be billed again (see below). We generally don't refund past charges, but we're reasonable people — if something's genuinely wrong, email us and we'll make it right.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Manage or cancel your membership yourself from Settings → Billing in two clicks. Cancel and you keep access through the period you've already paid for, then it simply doesn't renew.
How do events work?
Everything lives on the Events page. RSVP in a tap and you'll get a confirmation. Zoom calls run every two weeks; in-person gatherings happen monthly across the Lowcountry. Show up to what fits your schedule — no obligation to make them all.
