It's finally here!!!!!

We are launching the Human Cloud Community October 1, and want YOU to be a founding member!

There are 3 main reasons to join this community:

Peer knowledge share

Your peers have done and invested in exactly what you're thinking about right now.

We know because we've helped hundreds of freelance leaders, and this community curates and vets only executives & founders that are focused on freelance and have built sustainable and innovative businesses in our space.

Shape the Standards

The freelance industry needs to professionalize, and standards are the way to do this.

For example, what should we call this space? What should margins be? What should regulation prioritize or avoid? We facilitate and own the foundation for these assets.

Collaborate, Don't Compete

A rising tide lifts all boats, and we have a lot of boats.

There are over 800 platforms, and over 1,000 freelancer related solutions. Rather than compete, this community fosters collaboration through intentional complementary membership and facilitation.

What is the Human Cloud Community?

An invite only, 50 leader community of global talent platforms that are between $1-100m in revenue, and clear leaders in their niche.

Why do I need this?

Selfishly, for growth. If you don’t grow by at least 30% next year, don’t renew.

What can I expect? What is the commitment?

Depending on your tier, expect:
Early access to HC Forbes, Presentation, and Report Content
Async Slack Community
Monthly cohort meetings (10 curated leaders)
Bimonthly expert sessions
Quarterly meetings to review Human Cloud data, industry updates, and items you’d like to add

*Any member can run your own workshops and propose new community ideas

For Amplify Members (limited to 10), you can have:

Human Cloud Podcast episode with 1 month of marketing ($8k market rate)
Major Media Article ($12k market rate)
Quarterly meeting with just amplified leaders
New member criteria vote
Quarterly 1:1 strategy meeting with HC leadership
Monthly office hours with HC leadership for open discussion and Q&A

What are the community goals?

We take quantifying the outcomes very seriously, especially with the current business climate we’re all facing.

Annual goals for this cohort:

Grow each platform by 30%+ revenue or profit.
Create talent platform partnerships that scale customer accounts to $50m+ a year.
Build language and standards that establish freelance as a mature industry that companies need to invest in and plan for each quarter (there should be a chief freelance officer, a freelance talent strategy).
Enable a tight feedback loop with platform peers so we can all adjust and navigate to the global economy.

Who are the members?

Members are founders or executives of talent platforms between $1-100m in revenue. Based on prior cohorts, members are fully global, with presence in the US, UK, Germany, France, Poland, Cyprus, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Singapore, and Latin America.

High level shared demographics:

Each platform is the leader in their niche – skillset, region, industry
Each platform is complementary to others in the group
Each founder or executive is an expert in their industry prior to starting their platform

Can I add members from my team?

Each member can bring 1 leader with them to events.
