I have been developing and refining the process for several years. Until now I have been using Calendly and Paypal to book these calls with incredible results, with the concept proven I’m racing to build the automated platform. Raising on Wefunder will help bring this software to market even faster - and most importantly before anyone else does. I would love to personally show you the process and get your feedback so please schedule a call here: https://c... 2. **What a shame that you had to bash Dean, Tony, and Russell for you to make your point. Most people that have invested in their programs and actually applied what was taught have had great success. I was curious about the value proposition of your company but I'm not anymore. Ha...** - Hey Jeff, Apologies for the late reply, I've just found out there is a questions tab here. I'm looking forward to all the questions coming in. I agree with you, people have benefited from Dean, Tony, and Russell’s courses. I’m very glad you are one of the people who have benefitted. As you can see in the video, for many other people it’s not the right solution for them. These courses are expensive and individuals have to pay upfront, even if they later realize it’s not what they need. Momento... 3. **Is Tim Ferris involved in Momentor?** - Hey Robert, Tim Ferris is not involved in the project. As you allude to, Tim is super influential in the mentoring space and we'd love to get Tim onto Momentor. We have seen how celebrity profiles have contributed significantly to Cameo's growth and popularity, and we are also determined to recruit influential people onto Momentor's platform. Celebrity profiles are critical to our company roadmap. We have allocated budget for acquiring some of the best and highest-profile mentors available on... 4. **Is this your website? https://www.momentor.io/ - Looks like it's a similar service with the same name run by a Greek startup (https://www.eu-startups.com/directory/momentor/).** - Hey Michael, no that is not our website, though the company does have the same name. Our website is www.momentor.tech. Our name originated from discussions many years ago because we wanted to offer mentoring by the minute and an awareness of how significantly mentorships affect the momentum you’re building. We also saw there were no search engine results at the time, meaning the name would be great for SEO. We have confidence that our unique product, experience, and approach will mean that we... 5. **Hi Jamie, when are you launching your MVP? Curious how you plan on achieving $100k in revenue this year.

I hope below covers everything you've asked. Our MVP plan is to launch in Q4 - and this is still on track. A more refined version will come in 2023Q1 but the initial MVP will allow us to thoroughly hypothesis test the functionality and collect data.

More broadly, how do you think about competition and potential risks? - A: Hey Darian, Thanks for your query to understand our thinking behind the risks involved in our business model. You're right, LinkedIn could create a mentoring programme but we believe we can be agile in creating our MVP in a few months, find our product market fit and create a reputation for offering a seamless experience and expand our reach quickly through our marketing plans. Our technology wouldn't just use their platform but intertwine a few to enable users a seamless multi-platform mentorship experience. We see Linkedin and other platforms as potential buyers of Momentor as they expand their services to meet the demand for the incredible growth of peer-to-peer e-learning over the next 10 years. Fortunately for us, we're not trying to invent the wheel. We've spotted a gap in the market that brings current technologies together, enabling a seamless and valuable product offering. Most of these technologies are from businesses that currently operate with the same reliance on these platforms. We see these main risks for Momentor - Deplatforming - Platforms like LinkedIn prevent us from auto-messaging & scraping their platforms - Quality of mentorship - The quality of the mentorship is low due to no previous mentorship experience - Software merging issues - Momentor's call & payment software does not perform as intended - Copycat companies - With being the first innovative and first mover, companies are bound to copy us  Deplatforming Deplatforming is the biggest risk to Momentor's future. We are aware that being unable to use platforms like LinkedIn to auto-message users would limit our planned service functionality. The ability to scrape profiles in the search functionality would also restrict our value of reduced search time for users. The good news is that currently there are billion-dollar international organisations that are built with this functionality for LinkedIn data harvesting and auto messaging. LinkedIn has allowed companies for many years to use LinkedIn’s backend to enable this functionality. It’s unlikely they would instantly wipe billions of dollars from publicly listed companies across the world. They have built and grown their service with these companies and so each has a strong relationship with LinkedIn. An example would be Zoominfo which is a publicly traded company with over 2,500 employees and $1B in revenue. Then there’s Lusha, Rocketreach, Dux-soup, Lead 411, and Snov.io to name a few. From my research and 8 years in this market, there are hundreds of companies working in the space. We are simply merging four of these service functionalities together. If you would like to dive deeper into our thinking behind these risks and how we're planning for them, then it would be a pleasure to speak and discuss the subject more. You can book some time on my calendar here - https://calendly.com/dropinwithjamie/30min - Q: @Jamie Goulding, why is the beenthere.tech website down and I am unable to send email to you any more. Please clarify. - A: Hey Ramesh, I hope you saw our investor update, but to confirm, the website is down while we explore pivoting. It helps us save costs and stop any past information posted from confusing people. Thanks for your patience while we prepare our next steps. - Q: You don't even have a working website. What's going on here? - Q: Hi. I would love to invest at the $2.45k level but it looks like you will not take Canadian Investors. Do you have a mechanism by which I can invest in Momentor. I would like to invest at the discount you are currently offering. I like this concept and think it will work very well. - A: Hey Sukhvinder, It's incredible to hear you would like to invest and support our mission of inspiring millions into Mentorship! International investors are in fact able to invest and a currency conversion exists to make it easy once you know the steps. Check out Wefunder's guide for international investors here: https://help.wefunder.com/154992-linked/international-investor-guide If you need any extra help then please email me directly at jamie@momentor.tech and I'll be happy to walk you through step by step on a call or get Wefunder to directly help you. Thanks again for your vote of confidence and support! Best wishes, Jamie - Q: Hi Jamie, when are you launching your MVP? Curious how you plan on achieving $100k in revenue this year. Also, what is your marketing plan/strategy to attract users? I noticed you don't have a Head of Marketing on your team, so wondering who is owning that as it's such an important piece. - A: Hey Rigo, thanks for your questions. I hope below covers everything you've asked. Our MVP plan is to launch in Q4 - and this is still on track. A more refined version will come in 2023Q1 but the initial MVP will allow us to thoroughly hypothesis test the functionality and collect data. The funding campaign is taking a little more time than expected but as the launch date nears we’re starting to ramp up work on the project which will convert to a faster launch of the MVP. This also means reaching our objective of $100,000 revenue in 2022 will be pushed into 2023Q1, being formed by taking a percentage of these call costs. Our marketing strategy is quite simple but also unique in that we’re only going to be finding mentees to use our platform. By assisting them in their search, they will find and reach out to mentors using LinkedIn. We will use a similar marketing strategy to Uber and Doordash in their initial growth phases, where we offer a free first call to try out the service. Once they have a successful call and mentorship partner, we give them two free vouchers to share with their friends. Based on our own experience and analysis, we estimate each person will message 5+ potential mentors and take 3 calls before finding a long-term mentor. We have many ideas, and one example is having security features like an NDA agreement signed to facilitate the conversation, creating return customers. We have many more product features lined up which we will test rigorously with our MVP to ensure our users keep coming back. I have been exposed to a lot of marketing throughout my time in sales within start-ups so I will be able to lead the marketing efforts, hire someone to execute, and have a very experienced and talented friend advising Momentor. This model has worked well for me in the past and I see it as the most effective and cheapest way to drive results without hiring a dedicated CMO. This hiring step will come after our next fundraise but thanks for highlighting the importance of a strategic marketing plan, I couldn't agree more. Let me know if there are any further details you'd like to know. I'm also available for a call via https://calendly.com/dropinwithjamie/30min if that would help build your confidence to invest in Momentor. Best wishes, Jamie - Q: I notice the website is down. Do you have any idea what is going on? - Q: Hello.Is the startup still in action?there are no news for a long time. - Q: Jamie, could you please elaborate on this round's intended use of funds, and what you and the team see happening next from here, i.e. our goal this round is to raise X amount of capital, which we plan to use for A, B, C, etc., and once we do this, we expect Y result, and from there, our next step will be to... Thanks, - A: Hi Michael, Our goal this round is to raise a minimum of $500,000 in Capital, which we plan to use for the next 24 months for: A) Hiring an A class lean team, bringing experienced leaders across all departments of product tech development and marketing growth. B) Improve our MVP using user feedback, testing and iterative development. Budget will also be allocated for licences and integrations with LinkedIn. C) Implementing a growth strategy similar to Cameo by partnering with influencers/thought leaders to promote BeenThere. We will simultaneously deploy a combination of marketing strategies and ads to boost brand awareness to our target audience. With these steps in place, user-led growth and influencer marketing, we anticipate achieving record levels of revenue, bringing BeenThere closer to our sustainable profitability objective. We see that we can become profitable within 18 months. From there, our next focus will be to hire new talent for ongoing growth and product development. Here we will emphasise product improvements to increase customer satisfaction, user retention and improve our viral coefficient. Let me know if you have any further questions as I’d love to dive into it deeper with you. Jamie - Q: Hello, I am curious how you are coming up with your projections? They look amazing, but few companies have been able to grow like this. - Q: I believe there is a strong case for your product if it does what I think it does. I support a specific software platform, and I get calls daily from people who are stuck. Usually in a minute or two, I can talk them through the solution to their issue. Recently I got stuck on a situation with software I use. It just was not doing what I needed it to do, and a fairly robust system of on-line support and a community forum were not getting me anywhere, plus the experts I knew did not have the answer. Would your system help people resolve issues like this by finding someone who has the answer and connecting them, or is it on a different level of mentoring? - A: Hey Steve, I'm so sorry! I completely missed this new question. You are right on the money, Steve! Our application will connect experts in that subject seamlessly, enabling information to be passed quickly. This short-term information sharing can also turn into long-term mentoring. We have an exciting internal system planned that we can't share yet, but it will be extremely powerful in finding a person with that specific subject knowledge. if you'd find value, I'd be happy to jump on a call where I can maybe go into a little more detail. Let me know at jamie@momentor.tech Best wishes, Jamie - Q: I find it highly annoying to have had multiple people on your staff try to connect with me on LinkedIn, apparently by getting my name from Wefunder. Please stop. - Q: Is this your website? https://www.momentor.io/ - Looks like it's a similar service with the same name run by a Greek startup (https://www.eu-startups.com/directory/momentor/). - A: Hey Michael, no that is not our website, though the company does have the same name. Our website is www.momentor.tech. Our name originated from discussions many years ago because we wanted to offer mentoring by the minute and an awareness of how significantly mentorships affect the momentum you’re building. We also saw there were no search engine results at the time, meaning the name would be great for SEO. We have confidence that our unique product, experience, and approach will mean that we don’t struggle to differentiate ourselves using a brand name that truly speaks to our mission. That being said, if ultimately needed we will always adapt to the landscape and make any changes that are necessary to continue our success. - Q: What a shame that you had to bash Dean, Tony, and Russell for you to make your point. Most people that have invested in their programs and actually applied what was taught have had great success. I was curious about the value proposition of your company but I'm not anymore. Having to put people down for you to convince people to invest in your business is a joke. Sorry, but that is a huge turn off. Good luck - A: Hey Jeff, Apologies for the late reply, I've just found out there is a questions tab here. I'm looking forward to all the questions coming in. I agree with you, people have benefited from Dean, Tony, and Russell’s courses. I’m very glad you are one of the people who have benefitted. As you can see in the video, for many other people it’s not the right solution for them. These courses are expensive and individuals have to pay upfront, even if they later realize it’s not what they need. Momentor is fundamentally different, and can offer value in these ways that courses can not: 1) Momentor is very affordable. Users can end a call with their chosen mentor anytime they feel they are not receiving the promised value. You will only be charged a pro-rated fee that is automatically calculated for the time you spent connected on the call. 2) Mentorship's true value is in long-term relationships. Most problems in business are like problems in life, they are complex. Complex problems take time and specific solutions, sometimes multiple solutions will need to be tried. Our platform allows these specific solutions and long-term relationships to be created. I agree that needlessly putting people down is not good business practice. However, this video is publicly posted and went viral because it highlights things most people do not know about Dean, Tony, and Russell. Everyone in the mentoring space should be aware of the content in this video so that they can make an informed decision. As someone passionate about driving the mentoring space forwards, it’s my responsibility to share these issues and be a part of the solution. I think there is space for courses, coaches, and consultants to all co-exist. I hope Momentor will be the solution for individuals who do not get value from these existing services. Best wishes, Jamie - Q: The idea seems great, do you have the any type of prototype ready for me to get a feel for your solution? - A: Hey Mads, Glad you love the business! I have been developing and refining the process for several years.

I would love to personally show you the process and get your feedback so please schedule a call here: https://calendly.com/dropinwithjamie/30min Best wishes, Jamie - Q: Can you share your thoughts on how often you will update us on how things are progressing with your goals and business plan? Secondly, do you intend to file the annual report with the SEC? Thanks for your feedback.
