Findaway Adventures Managing Partner and Co-Founder Robert U. Craven has created a unique online venue designed to help founders in the consumer packaged goods (“CPG”) health and wellness space scale their businesses and strengthen their prospects for future investment.
The Findaway Club, says Craven, was created to broaden the reach of Findaway Adventures beyond those companies in which it has a formal investment/advisory relationship. “The biggest problems founders face is the lack of a genuine strategy that enables them to focus resources where they will make the biggest difference toward long-term success,” Craven says. “The Findaway Club will tap into our network of experts and investors to help these companies nail their strategy, grow their business and make an impact.”
Two Tracks
The club offers two tracks. Track #1 is for founders who still need to do the foundational work of nailing their strategy and building their playbook. Track #2 is for founders who have developed their strategic playbook and want to use it to drive growth. This track offers expert-led deep dives into leadership, execution, integrating social mission, marketing, sales, ops, raising money, and finance.
Weekly online sessions and “office hours” will combine guidance from industry experts with a curriculum driven by the specific, ongoing needs of club members.
The cost of the club for both tracks is $300/month, and people can cancel any time.
Craven offered a free beta version of the club in May 2020 following the cancellation of Expo West due to Covid-19. Nancy Kalish, the founder and CEO of Rule Breaker Snacks, says she took part in the beta because she was “spending too much time and energy putting out fires” and being stretched “too thin” by every new opportunity. “With Robert’s guidance, I was able to create a playbook that restored my focus and now acts as our North Star when a new opportunity arises,” she says.
