Why it fits: Nearest solid option. Fundraising-stage founders, so earlier in the budget cycle than ideal, but good pipeline for Q4 close.

Limited capacity by design. GA is the right ticket for you.

Why it fits: Recurring monthly format with early-stage founders pitching. These are people who need brand, web and product work but have not hired an agency yet. Cheap way to test whether your pitch lands.
