About me

Serial Entrepreneurs, Rachel Kimelman and Jordan Weiss are a dynamic duo. We know from personal experience that being an entrepreneur is extremely difficult and can often feel like an emotional roller coaster. We can help navigate the ups and downs of startup life and work with you through the process of creating strategy, building traction and raising funding. Running a Startup is a lot of pressure, that's why we want to ease the burden by helping founders with disruptive ideas and the drive to succeed. Often, founders have a hard time figuring out how to implement their idea. We are equipped to help the right founder know the steps needed to strategize, organize and plan the proper roadmap for the business. We will work with you to make the best presentation of the business possible. This includes all materials necessary for growth strategy, product development, pitching, fundraising, business road map, fleshing ideas and determining their viability for the best path to execution.
