Choose your 30
Decide who matters to your next move: investors if you're raising, recruiters and hiring managers if you're job hunting, prospects if you're selling, candidates if you're hiring, or people you want to stay close to.
30 days. 30 professional relationships.
Pick 30 people who genuinely matter to what you're trying to accomplish next: clients, investors, candidates, hiring managers, mentors, or people you've lost touch with. Then actually build those relationships.
Start 30 days challenge
No card. Nothing is ever sent for you.
One person a day. Thirty days.
The people who help you are few, and they remember you.
Most of us collect connections and then never speak to them. But the person who introduces you to an investor, vouches for you with a hiring manager, or takes your call in a busy week is almost never a stranger. It's someone who remembers you.
Being remembered takes small, well-timed touches. And what ends most of those isn't rejection. It's forgetting. Thirty is small enough to do properly and big enough to change where you stand in a month.
How the challenge works
Five steps, one small action a day.
Set up your account
Sign up, pick the purpose closest to yours, and keep the default sequence or shape your own. It becomes your roadmap for every conversation.
Add one person a day
Day 1, one person. Day 2, one more. Small enough to do before your coffee cools, and in 30 days you have thirty.
Track what really happens
Mark the accepted request, the reply, the "not now." GrowthSeeded shows what to do next and when, so nobody slips through.
Share your 30
Open the Results tab in GrowthSeeded and share your progress on LinkedIn or Facebook with #GrowthSeeded30. You could be featured.
Day 12 of someone's 30
Picture a founder raising her first round. On day 1 she adds one investor who recently posted about the problem she's solving, and leaves a real comment on his post. On day 2, a connection request. By day 5 she has five names and a rhythm.
On day 12, the investor she added on day 3 replies:
"Interesting, but not now. Ask me again after Q2."
In most systems, that's a dead lead, or a note buried in a spreadsheet nobody opens. Here she marks it as a not now, picks the reason, and GrowthSeeded moves him to Nurture, with a reminder to send a light update later. No ask attached.
On day 30 she has thirty investors, each with a status and a next step. Some said yes. Some said not now. Most are still warming up. None of them was forgotten.
An illustration of how it tends to go, not a testimonial. GrowthSeeded is new, and inventing praise would be a strange way to start.
Three quiet ways good relationships die
Worth knowing whether or not you take the challenge.
You only show up when you need something.
Do this instead: engage first. Comment on something real in their work before you ever ask for anything, so your message isn't the first time they've heard from you.
A "not now" gets treated as a "no."
Do this instead: write down why, and come back when their timing changes, not yours. Most "maybe later" answers are real, and almost nobody follows up on them.
You follow up on your schedule, not theirs.
Do this instead: let what they actually did set the next step. A request accepted, a reply, a quiet week: each calls for something different.
