It's Brooke from Sharesies! Let's chat changing the world through investment.
This week I am talking to the incredible Brooke from Sharesies, a platform that is changing the investment game. I first met the sharesies crew in 2017 in my very first angel investment pitch and I was blown away by how lovely they all were, and what a good (and simple) idea Sharesies was. Their mission is all about creating financial empowerment for everybody and Brooke has done this as one of six co-leaders which is unusual, but super effective. In this episode Brooke shares: - How Sharesies started - How they worked to bring on share holders who share a similar vision to them - How they get their core info across to the consumer without being overwhelming - The conversation she and the founders had about setting up the vibe and culture at their company - The importance of sharing your idea - How to use the B Corp certification to find the weaknesses in your business - Her number one tip to someone starting a mission driven business Key Quotes “You don't have to be perfect from day one.” “When we've brought shareholders on board we've been interviewing them too.” More information: Find out more about Sharesies via their website: https://sharesies.com.au/ You can also follow them on social media.
