I have a new obsession these days. Pretty much every morning I visit Product Hunt, which offers a daily curation of new products (mostly apps).
Last Wednesday, I came across RocketClub, a web-based platform where you learn about new startups and play a key role in helping them achieve early success. In return, you can earn shares in the startups themselves. RocketClub does this by connecting startups with early adopters who in turn become part-owners through sweat equity through completion of a series of tasks such as giving periodic feedback and introducing the product to their personal network.
I joined immediately.
Startups need users who are engaged and have a vested interest in them. This is the brilliant insight that led the founders to create RocketClub. It is free to join and free to apply to work with any startup. RocketClub takes a management fee upon the sale of stock options and before the cash is distributed.
This is disruptive innovation at its finest.
I would encourage anyone who enjoys finding startups and the ideas behind them to join RocketClub and start finding new businesses to love.
