Let's get you some answers.
Triad Connects is a FREE, curated community of hundreds of vetted volunteer startup advisers from Piedmont Triad organizations ready to support you.We get it. No matter if you're building a tech company, a restaurant, a new clothing line, or a fitness studio, you've got A LOT of questions. Like all the time. Questions that our community of proven entrepreneurs, investors, services providers, corporate executives, professors, and city planners is volunteering to help with.
To request and give help you need to first complete a short application (including details about your business if you are an entrepreneur).
We're super passionate about making sure startups get good advice so we carefully review every application to join Triad Connects. Once you're approved, you'll get a Welcome email from us.
There are two ways to ask for help: you can send an email to connect@triadconnects.org or complete a short form right within the Triad Connects website.
Make sure to include (a) who you are, (b) what you're looking for, and (c) how it is going to help you so that advisers can immediately determine if they can assist.
We match and email your request to a select group of qualified advisers based on expertise, preferences, and location.
As soon as a member of the community responds, we'll email you insights (they can also offer a call or meeting).
You (hopefully) reply with a quick "thank you" to build a new relationship.
Above all, we work hard to ensure that giving and getting help is easy and meaningful for both entrepreneurs and advisers. To that end, we ask that new members review and agree to our Code Of Conduct, Privacy Policy, and Terms Of Use. Our Frequently Asked Questions also has great info for new entrepreneurs and advisers.
Looking for a local credit union because CUs usually have better customer service. I may want to use the same credit union to purchase a home, so if they’re known to be a good mortgage lender as well, that’s a bonus.
Does anyone in the group have significant experience in data sciences (machine learning/predictive modeling)? I’m working on an application and I’d like to build in some predictive capabilities, but it’s a little too far outside of my experience base.
We are looking for an intern who can help manage our social media presences and post on a daily basis to Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.
Any referrals or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
