Welcome to Workbnb’s $3 Million Pre-Seed Extension Community Raise! It’s our time to dominate “Mid-term rentals”

[Disclosure: WeFunder requires Workbnb to file legal paperwork to increase our campaign from $50,000 to our target $3,000,000.]

2023 will go down in history as the year of “Smoke & Mirrors” for black founders as reported by TechCrunch’s senior venture capital and startups reporter, Dominic Madori-Davis. In her most recent article, she reports that "Black founders raised 0.13% of all capital allocated to U.S. startups in Q3, according to Crunchbase. That's about $39.7 million out of $29.9 billion. This number is a massive year-over-year drop, and funding to Black founders has consistently declined since 2020. This trend mirrors an identical downward trend in corporate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) investments and initiatives. So, what are black founders supposed to do to do this fundraising winter? Should we wait?

NO! We have too much tenacity to wait and hope for venture capital to grow a conscious. We believe too much in ourselves to put all of our eggs in the venture capital basket. 


We believe Q4 will be worse and Q1, Q2,Q3, and Q4 2024 will be a fundraising ice age for Black founders.

Here are Four Reasons to invest in Workbnb!


REASON #1 - Product Rollout has begun!

For the past two years, team Workbnb has been alpha testing a unique B2B managed marketplace focused on four specific outcomes:


  • Repeatable transactions using a "no search bar" method to collect booking data.
  • Scalable high-ticket purchases by enterprises seeking safe and decent housing in multiple markets.
  • Significant gross margins utilizing a lower take rate per door for an overlooked niche.  
  • Tangible increases in brand value and social proof to leverage for BETA launch.


BETA Product Launch timeline and milestones: 


  • November and December 2023, onboarding the First 500 properties to the product in seven states from the Alpha team called Workforce Rental Prodigies and early testers paying $9.95 per month for the past year to list properties in twelve states.
