Invest & mentor
Stuart is looking for companies to invest in and founders to advise and mentor. Alongside capital, he brings what most early companies are missing: a proven way to create demand, a brand people trust, and the experience of building one.
What Stuart looks for
The best fit is a company where better marketing, a clearer story or an operator's perspective would change the trajectory.
Clean energy and solar, home services and contracting, and B2B software with complex products and long sales cycles.
Companies that sell something people pay for today, and could grow faster with a stronger demand engine.
Founders working on the company full time, who want honest feedback and act on it.
A preference for Utah and the Mountain West, where he can be in the room, but not a requirement.
Beyond capital
Access to the Compounding Demand approach and, where it fits, RELLO's team for go-to-market, lead generation and sales enablement.
Help sharpening the pitch, the positioning and the story, the work Stuart has done for companies at every stage.
Lessons from founding RELLO, chairing a nonprofit board, and marketing a solar company through its acquisition.
Ways to work together
Capital for companies with traction, paired with hands-on help on demand and brand.
An ongoing advisory role on go-to-market, marketing leadership and positioning, typically in exchange for equity.
A small number of founders each year, by application, for regular working sessions on the company and the founder.
How it works
The form below takes about five minutes. A deck helps but isn't required.
Every submission is read. If there's a fit, you'll hear back with next steps.
A call to understand the company, the founder and what would move it forward.
A straight yes or no, with the reasoning, so you're never left guessing.
