Why this exists.
Modern Day Founder is a private membership for the serious builders of Phoenix Metro. It's the room we always wanted to be in — so we built it.
You've outgrown the coffee circles. You're not writing a check for the country club.
You know the feeling. The lead-swap groups stopped teaching you anything two years ago. The elite rooms want a track record you're still building, and a check size you're not writing yet. So you've been doing this alone. DMs with a few founders you trust. The occasional dinner where everyone's really just pitching.
That's not a room. That's a waiting room.
This is the room you've been looking for.
MOST ROOMS ONLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT YOUR REVENUE. WE WANT TO KNOW HOW YOUR MARRIAGE IS HOLDING UP WHILE YOU BUILD IT.
You don't get to optimize one and let the other three fall apart. Not in this room. The founders who actually make it are the ones building all four at once — and that's who you'll be sitting next to.
ALMOST EVERY FOUNDER GROUP PICKS A SIDE.
Men only. Women only. Couples-only mixers where singles don't fit, or founder circles where your spouse has to go build their own network somewhere else.
We didn't pick a side. This room is for men and women. For founders who are married and founders who aren't. If you're building this alone, you belong here. If your spouse is the person who knows what your 5am looks like and what a brutal quarter does to a marriage, they belong here too.
Come as a founder. Come as a couple. Either way, you're in the right room.
Invite-only. Vetted with care.
Every seat starts with an application. Most come through referral from a current member.
We meet everyone before they meet the room. Fit matters more than resume.
If it's right, you're in. Full access to gatherings, community, and the network from day one.
- —Access to Masterminds — closed-door working sessions with members only.
- —A seat at private Dinners hosted throughout the year.
- —Invitations to Forums, our members-plus-qualified-guests conversations.
- —Reserved access to our annual Gala and public Conferences.
- —A private community for the day-to-day.
- —The right people, on speed dial. Quietly.
What we stand for.
We build businesses. We're not here to be the loudest voice in the room.
You don't need to have made it. You need to be seriously chasing it.
The room grows when the room wins. Zero-sum energy doesn't fit here.
What's said in the room stays in the room. That's what makes it worth showing up to.
Phoenix Metro first. We're building something you can drive to.
Every seat is chosen. That's the whole product.
We're not the point. The room is.
Modern Day Founder was started by builders who got tired of asking "where's the good room in Phoenix?" We'll show up, host, and hold the standard — but the members are the product. Always have been.
